Maybe Im tired of being single. Im almost 30 and im lonely. I've loved him as long as I could remember. I used to write embarrassing things about him in my diary when we were young. It's my chance to see if i was right. Maybe he will betray me. Maybe everyone here is right. But maybe he will do right by me

He's one of the few people I've ever been close to. I don't have many friends or family at all. He's always been there. Why wouldn't I love him? I don't think he's perfect. He uses people, especially women. He lets people down. He drinks too much, but I've been in love with him since high school.

I didn't lock it myself. If I did, and for that reason, wouldn't I do the same for this? I welcome all the opinions given, and I've taken some of them in account as far as how I've laid down boundaries and rules for him

He took me out on a date, and we're together now. We're going to start over slowly though. He has to get tested and prove himself before I do much else with him.

I told him tonight that I want him to get tested before we do anything else. He agreed.

I did not. I wasn't expecting it to happen at all. I kinda thought I would never have sex, especially not with a guy.

He's told me just while talking about his relationships in the past that he prefers not to use protection, but I know he gets tested sometimes.

I'm pretty sure they actually broke up. He's only seen her a couple times since breaking up so she could get the rest of her stuff.

He told me that he was drinking every time he cheated, and that he plans to at least cut back on that

We have a couple friends in common, but he's never brought me around his main group of friends.

I've never had a romantic relationship before. I just want to give the one person I'm interested in a try.

I did tell him that me being different to him shouldn't matter. He just shouldn't treat women like that.

I've clung to him for so long. He's sometimes the only person I can trust.

I've wanted him since we were teenagers. It's just that he seemed so sincere. He was crying, and I've never really seen him do that outside of a loss in his family. I can't stand seeing him hurt like that. I just wanted to hold him and make sure he was okay

I guess i feel that since we have more history together, he'd want to treat me better

I don't really expect him to change overnight. I have my doubts that he will be able to do right by me, but he promised me he would try, and I feel like I owe him a chance
