Title:
3rd time trying, please help, need peace of mind

At easter time I met this guy, his name is Karl. I met him in a night club that I go to frequently. Not to speak to but introduced to, but instantly I felt an attraction to him. Nothing happened though as I was with another guy at the time. Just looking at one another that is all.
Then two weeks ago I was in the same club and I spotted him and he walked over....we chatted for ages one thing led to another and we kissed. Ended up being with each other all night. I felt a connection to him and thought he was gods gift in that one night. At the end of the night I took him number and txt him when I got home saying I had a good night and everything and that I really liked him. He txt back saying he had good night etc. Now at this point I was doing work training in Northern Ireland but came back over here for weekends here and there, which I told him on the night. The next day I sent him a txt and replied, I said he should come out that night but he said he didnt know if he could. His Mam was over from Iran and only comes home once a year. He txt me later on saying he couldnt make it also. Anyway cutting to the chase I went back to Ireland but we stayed in contact, I came home permantly on Monday, today is Wednesday. Before I came home however I txt him on Saturday night when I was out. I like him so much but made it blantly obvious, cant remember what I said to him but I think I mentioned his ex which he only finished with two weeks ago. I thought something was up because it was me making all the first moves and I thought if he really liked me then it wouldnt be like that...here is what he said to my reply ...
"Yea I still feel funny about finishing with Kelly. I really feel messed up about it. There is just too much going on. But we can see what happens. You know how complicated it is. We can have fun though. How is your night anyway?"
Cant remember what I replied to this, but next day I said I was very drunk and I bet my txts made no sense so sorry...but no reply
So today I went into town and bumped into him, my friend was with me and it was awkward...couldnt look him in the eye, he mentioned going out on Saturday night, and I was like yea I might be etc...
I just want to contact him and say something ...but what can I say? Does he like me? Shud I stay away if hes still messed up about the ex? Should I just forget about him and move on? Just want to contact him n say contact me if u like when ur ready and weel go out for a drink! What do I do...messed up about this one because I do really like him...
Thanks you Marie x

Marie,
Based on his reply in his text message, he doesn't want to get involved with you in a romantic way... he is trying to let you know without being an asshole that things for him at this time are uncertain.
He isn't ready to give up on his girl Kelly, and essentially is telling you that the two of you can still be FRIENDS.
Now Marie, I don't know how your behaviour was on the nights that you were with him... but because you had told him later that you were sorry if your text messages didn't make sense because you were drunk... I wonder if you were also intoxicated on both occasions when you were with him as well?
Something to keep in mind here Marie, you don't know this guy really... and NOBODY likes when someone "drunk dials" however, it is probably a lot more forgivable to someone who knows you a whole lot better and has seen you at your best... not just been around you when you've been intoxicated.
Move on here Marie... he isn't wanting a romantic relationship.
