He's confusing me
I started dating this guy about two months ago. There was no time in which we actually knew each other before dating. He was friends w/ my cousin and he and I fell for each other instantly. Recently I had been getting emails from his ex (whom he claims is insane b/c she calls all the time. and he's even let me tell her off before). She kept telling me that I needed to break up with him b/c she loved him. I told her to piss off and asked him about it. He swears he doesn't even speak to her, and I believed him. I hung out w/ him a few nights ago, and everything was fine. he hugged me, kissed me, told me he loved me, everything. but then last night he sent me a message saying that he didn't think we should be together anymore because he didn't want to hurt me. when i talked to him on the phone, he said he was just afraid of screwing things up. He said he liked me a lot and wanted to be with me, but wasn't sure if he loved me. He said he wanted to start over and go slow because he said he had felt rushed (which was understandable b/c we hardly knew each other before dating). He told me he wanted to try to be friends first, and gradually work up to the relationship. I understand this, but I don't know what he wants from me. We're not together, but it seems like we will be once he figures things out. But then this morning, his ex sent me another email that said "and he broke up with you." I want to believe that he has nothing to do w/ her, because he's always told me he couldn't stand her. but I don't know where she's getting all the information from unless he's either lying to me or they have a mutual friend of some kind. my question though, is that I don't know whether he wants to be with me or if this was just a way of getting out of a relationship with me. i'm terribly confused b/c i don't know how i'm supposed to act.

If someone says they "just want to be friends" that is another way of saying they do not want a strong friendship, rather a casual friendship or no friendship. It is a way of getting a message across without trying to cause hurt.
Don't wait for someone to change, try to change them or influence their decision making. Find someone else and never look back.
SHUT THE FUCK UP AND FORGET ABOUT HIM...
