If we don't proactively take a stand to protect ourselves, decide ahead of time what our boundaries are, any smooth talker can cause us to lose our common sense.
But there is no greater feeling than being in love. Oh, to be young and crazy again.

I am well acquainted with the feeling as I'm still crazy head over heels for my husband.

But our OP isn't in love, she has a crush - a hope that love will develop.

She has made the huge mistake multitudes of girls before her have made.

She gave sex to try to get love

She gave away her power, her self-esteem to someone who had yet to prove himself trustworthy or worthy of her.

I sincerely hope she is going to learn from this mistake.

Btw, actions > words. Words are cheap.

Pretend for a second that I am him, and I text this to you: "Hey baby, sorry I have been busy, but you know I miss you and think of you always. I want to see you and hold you so badly. I don't know when I will see you again, but I will make sure that it's very very soon. Take care, babe." <- I just made that up to please you, obviously I didn't mean any of that to you. That's how cheap words are!
"Worked on me. I think I'm in Love with you!"

To the OP, he is the Classic Player and you probably know that by now. Find a guy that's willing to invest time in you, unless your looking for this type.

When I made that remark I was being sarcastic. It's not that she is actually in love but that is what she is seeking. When I was that age I made my share of mistakes because I wanted to be "in love", even when the relationship was anything but ideal.

Sometimes it's hard to tell when someone is being sarcastic without the little emoticon

You're both just to young. He is acting like the typical 23 yr. old. Lets say you two had married this year. Odds are you would be divorced in your 30's and you could be a single mom. This isn't the end of the world for you love. Step back, take a deep breath, and do some thinking before you get to involved with Mr. Wrong again. This is nothing more than a learning experience for you. I'm 55 now and I went through a lot of idiots before I found the love of my life. You need a lot more life experience before you commit to your Mr. Right. (I hope you used protection, there's a lot more than just HIV out there. Be careful.)

May I suggest that your text messages may get a better response if you pay stronger attention to grammar, spelling and punctuation? I assume you text in the same style as you post here, and frankly, all the mistakes come across as coming from someone who is uneducated, naive and vulnerable to exploitation--the kind of "dumb-bunny" a user might want to go after.

Clean up your communications and attract more respect and a better class of gentleman. It's a start.
