AM I WRONG AND LEADING HIM ON?
I HAVE BEEN COMMUNICATING WITH A GENTLEMAN WHO LIVES IN ANOTHER STATE FOR 6 MONTHS. I AM STILL NOT OVER MY X COMPLETELY BUT THE RELATIONSHIP IS DONE. THIS NEW GUY IS VERY LOVING AND SUPPORTIVE AND COMPLIMENTARY AND ATTENTIVE. WE SPEAK EVERYDAY. HE IS VERY ENCOURAGING. HE'S AT A POINT IN HIS LIFE WHERE HE WANTS TO SETTLE DOWN AND HE SAYS THAT HE'S CHOOSING ME. HE'S PLANNING TO MOVE TO MY STATE TO BE WITH ME. I CONTINUE TO RELATE TO HIM PARTIALLY BECAUSE I ALWAYS WANTED TO BE WITH SOMEONE WHO LOVED ME MORE THAN I LOVED THEM SO I WOULDN'T GET HURT. ALTHOUGH SLIGHTLY NUMB INSIDE I AM SAD TO SAY THAT I STILL LOVE MR.X HOWEVER. IN A WAY I FEEL A LITTLE GUILTY, LIKE I MIGHT BE LEADING HIM ON, BUT I DON'T KNOW OR REALLY CARE, AT THIS POINT, WHAT HE MIGHT BE DOING WHERE HE IS. HE MAKES ME HAPPY. SHOULD I JUST BE HIS FRIEND AND BACK OFF UNTIL I GET THOSE OLD FEELINGS IN CHECK OR CONTINUE TO COMMUNICATE AND HOPE THAT THEY DISSIPATE ON THEIR OWN?

You are a free agent, free to do as you please. It sounds like you should not make any commitment to anyone at this particular juncture, however, until you are more certain about how you feel and what (and who) you want.

If you have to ask the question then you know something with it is not quite right.
You say you've been hurt by your ex and if this person cares enough to up-root their life to move and be with you why would you want to turn around and pass that hurt on?
I say your gut is right and leading him on is wrong. back off and work on yourself and healing yourself for a while. do you for a while so when your ready you can put your all to him if he's still around. If he really cares he'll be glad you made sure you could commit to him before taking it any further.

First off, please lay off the Caps Lock :)

Secondly, would you want him to do to you what you're doing to him?

You don't love him - don't commit yourself to him, you'll only regret it later. It's not fair on him because you'll eventually meet someone that you have stronger feelings for, and what happens then? You'll leave him, but even if you decided to stay then you'd be living a lie, wanting to be somewhere else with someone else, and that wouldn't be fair on either of you. Wait until you meet the right person - being on your own isn't that bad, in fact it can be a good thing because it gives you the chance to get to know yourself better, and you'll be stronger for it.

Your being extremely selfish and someone is going to end up very hurt because of your actions.

You need to stop being so selfish,tell him how you feel,so that he won't have to feel betrayed and hurt by your actions.

I agree with BabyTweety, if you don't think you love this new person, why would you want to let him uproot himself to be with you just to hurt him later??? Have you told him that you aren't sure about you feelings? Warned him about the ex problem? If not, they you are definately leading him on.

Fix your issues before he suffers the fate of YOU being mixed up. It would be selfish. Moving and leaving a job, friends and all that is home..for him to come into a mess is wrong.

maybe you need to fully get over your feelings for your ex before committing to another relationship. probably would be the best thing for you and him. if he really cares about you and knows how you feel, he will wait for you.
