    I love this guy and he says he loves me too, but I have been hurt one too many time this year and he says he understands and he will wait until I am ready, but he wants to know why I think he is like other guys and why I think he will treat me the same way. My heart tells me one this but my brain tells me something different. Please help!

    -Sigh . Girls letting the past get in the way . I used to be like that, until I realized the only reason I was using the "I've been hurt too many times before" excuse was because I was too weak and didn't trust the guy enough -- or trust myself enough to know that I can stand alone if the guy were to do the same as those others. If you love someone, the past shouldn't get in the way . You love & hurt -- that's just how it is . But if you never give the guy a chance, you'll never know .

    And that last line before "Please help!" Mind rephrasing that a little cuhs' your words are sort of mixed up in that and I don't really understand . But do you think he's just like other guys ? I'm assuming (since I don't know him) that he wants to know what makes him seem the same -- guys will all make mistakes, that's what people do -- but he's only asking because he cares . And if you do think he's the same, why do you ? Because of guys in the past ? Or is it that you think he WiLL be the same as those other guys because of the hurt you've been through ? I think the male gender are all the same -- how they want to treat a girl ... depends on them -- the jerks are the only ones we see specified as "the same" but there are plenty of nice guys out there that are "the same" just not that the terms we normally speak of them in .

    All those guys from before can have your past -- but they can't have your future, so why are you letting them ?

    Ok, first of all, he's your new bf not your ex bf or the one before him if your not going to trust him, then i suggest you leave relationships for a while until you pull yourself back together.

    Second, he IS, different, dont judge people on past expereinces because each person is different and unique in their own way, bringing new and exciting things with them, if you cant see that then you obviously dont like the guy and your just stringing him along.

    and mindy, i still rule >__>

    You say you 'love' him? but you don't 'trust' him? i really don't see how that works...
    I'm in a relationship... but i'm not in 'love' yet... and i understand how you feel about trust. i trust no one. I suggest you wait, never give all of yourself away. there's just too far to fall. do not trust until you are certain he's worth it. Then you can truly say you love him.

    Love is based on trust if you can't trust someone then you can't be in love with them its the way it works i trust everyone i love. I'm not sure about who you love but look inside your heart listen to these other people they seem pretty smart
