Should I Stay or Should I Go

Dear Dr. Sadie,

I'm a gay man. I've been seeing the same guy for three months now and I'm starting to fall for him....hard. However, he says he's not in a place in his life to be in a relationship. But, I'm not willing to give up so easily...even though I know I'm not the only person he's seeing (although I'm fairly certain we have a much stronger connection than he does with the other boy). He says he cares a lot about me and never wants to let go of my hand when we say good bye. Should I protect myself from heartache and just drop things now? Or should I press on and see where this story can go?

Yours Truly,
Mr. Too Much Love To Give

You should go find a new friend because you want to. That's all I have to say about that one.
