I'm a 17 girl. He is 18. We went out last week. He told me he still love his ex but he likes me too. I like him. He doesn't want me to get hurt by dating me while he's still missing his ex. What should I do? How do I make him forget about his ex?

Regardless of the issue you cannot make him do anything. You need to continue being yourself without expectations. Expectations will only get you hurt until he decides what he wants to do.

It something you are doing is making you hurt then stop doing that thing. Stop seeing him everyday. It is your choice, pain or no pain.

You don't. If he is thinking about his ex, then he is thinking abut his ex. You really can't change that. You have to just give him time (possibly a few weeks) and he will forget about her. Don't risk getting hurt for someone who wouldn't be completely committed to you

Totally agree. Wait patiently, and go out with friends or even other guys, so that you aren't watching the clock tick and the days go by.
Be nice, and be as noncommittal as he has to be. He's being honest, and that's a good attribute in anyone.

He was honest, and you have to respect that and not get carried away by your own intense feelings. Keep it real, you know what the score is and you know you can't help him forget his ex, or get over her.

It takes time, it can can weeks, or even months to properly get over ex. If you start dating too soon, he will just end up breaking up with you, when he realizes it
