Dating
Basically, my favorite cousin(male) has this friend who I had a crush on. We ended up dating and he was a great boyfriend, I just felt like we had too much in common and it felt like I was dating myself. He just didn't bring ut another side of me as I thought he would (And expected him to). I ended up breaking up with him and I shared this with a few friends from school and they said I was doing the right thing, not leading him on. Then I confided in my best friend, who I trust with my life, and she says I'm just being extra (which I know that I usually am). Even though I usually am dramatic to be silly this was for real. I rushed it off because to me it isn't too serious, we'd only dated for about a month ( He was also super clingy which is good to an extent). Then he texts me asking me why I broke up with him and I simply said that he wasn't my type and I didn't want to lead him on because it would only end badly, which is true. Did I do the right thing?????
