How to deal with a overemotional friend?

I made friends with a guy at college after helping him out on a paper. He is easy to talk to, but he is very prone to freak outs. If I don't call or text right back, he thinks I am ignoring him or mad at him. I couldn't meet him for breakfast one morning and he said he didn't want to be my friend. He calmed down after I told him how I felt. 

However, he is back to being just as insecure as any other day. Plus, he wants more than friendship. I have a boyfriend and I am not attracted to my friend. This is exhausting. Should I end the friendship? Any advice?

One bit of advice. Men don't give up hope very easily. They try to pretend, and tell you "OK, I've worked out my issues with you", but they haven't. You need to tell him that even if you became available, you would still not be interested in him.

I have such friends. Sometimes they are annoying. It is better to make it clear and tell him you are only friends. If he doesn't agree to it then you don't need such friend. If he appreciates you as a person and not only as a dating object...he would understand. )))

Hello,
It sounds like your "friend" is manipulating you because he has another agenda - he wants to take the place of your present boyfriend - be careful - turn around 180- and run as fast as you can from those types. They will only suck the life from you. Believe me, good samaritains like you are their favorite vicitims - This never happens to someone who is not stuck in the "good samaritain" complex. My advice, talk to your boyfriend, discuss the problem and prepare a strategy to meet Mr Manipulative and make things clear: 1- Establish your boundaries 2- Introduce your boyfriend(very important!) 3- Reiterate that you are in a serious relationship with your boyfriend 4- Set time limits and goals for studying - respect them 5-Talk to a lawyer about a restraining order (legal information)- this could go really bad if he is already using psychological tactics, acting out,etc... BE CAREFUL!

I completely agree - he is trying to manipulate you. He is seeking for your love and attenton, while trying to hide under the cover of "your true friendship". It happenned to me several times... It wass quite exhausiting and ended with breaking off our "friendship"... even though I did not want and cared for the person. Good luck! ;-)

Hi,

I think he is not Over emotional rather he is getting possessive about You day by day. If you ask about my advice , I would suggest to start keeping a safe distance from him and increase the distance as days pass by. Otherwise , it will harm your thoughts and thinking process and this will lead to a mess in you personal life as well.

I would say that this is your life and do not give anyone a chance to take advantage of it. I say that tell your feelings (whatever it is) to your boyfriend. do not get confused, it's a very long journey and I am sure every one gets the most perfect person as their life partner.

Is not surprising that Itank rights back,,,

This phenomenon has become characteristic of our time,,,

Everyone is running and running after their interests,,,

Do not care if they stepped on the others,,,

Or looting them in any way whether it be looting, physically or morally,

Been noted that the appeals process, which does not attach only to the selfish,,,

Present in all fields between relatives in an atmosphere of study, work and other,,,

Unfortunately, however, that the appeal from the back started the observation of close to us,,,

Many of friends stab you from behind,,,

And then smile in your face,,,

The appeal shall be in the form of gossip or accusation against you and you are innocent of it,,,

Or even of heinous inward then you deny you,,,

Friends of the most challenging and the most deadly types of appeal,,,

I wish to review one of us himself and his conscience

Long before challenging his friend, even if the word transient
