Hi Julia,

I think I know what’s going on here:

You are out of your long term relationship and wanted a rebound guy to boost your ego.

He too is out of a long term relationship and wanted a rebound girl to boost his ego.

Basically you want him to be more into you than you are into him.

And conversely he wants you to be more into him than he is into you.

Thus the Projections!! Of course he’s verbally “worried” that you are becoming attached! He’s desperately hoping for that!

Please put the poor boy out of his misery. The next time he contacts you (don’t worry, he will!) cut him off immediately and say, “This isn’t working”. No explanations. Go games.

Good Luck!

Inky
