What's up guys? It's Jamie Grace. Welcome to Weed It Out, a podcast on dating relationships and other things worth waiting for.

Today's message comes to me from A. She says, so my situation is sort of complicated, but there's a guy at my church that I have the feels for,

and I'm not 100% sure what way I feel about him, but I think I like him in a way that I want to spend

the rest of my life with him, but I am not sure part of me is scared because I have a bad and complicated

pass with sexual sins and pornography and stuff like that.

While I also had problems in my past with liking boy after boy after boy so I'm a little scared about

the way I feel about Riley that's his name so I try to ignore the feels for over a year

but all that happened was the feels I have just keep growing and growing to this day.

They continue to grow and a few weeks ago I told him that I like him.

We had a good conversation.

I told him that I feel like I like him in some way but I'm not sure about how I feel.

So anyway I went on to say to him that I think I should learn more about him to see how I really

feel so anyway I'm not sure if he really understood what I was saying but he said that he is not ready for

a relationship right now but maybe in about a year or so but well my intentions

in telling him what I told him was to start any kind of relationship in that way.

But he went on to say that he thinks for right now he feels like he needs to stay with the guys and meet with the girls and stuff like that.

I tried to tell him that all I want is to get to know as more of a friendship,

friend zone kind of level. But anyway, since then we have kind of avoided each other, but I have

started to question whether or not I should have said anything to him. He's a very golly person and he's very committed to God

and I am not 100% sure, but I think he might have made a promise

to himself and God that he would not be interested

in anyone or date anyone until after high school
