Jealibeanz, I hope you don't take nickguy's statement as a personal criticism.
I think he meant it in a caring way. Maybe a little tough-love way, because he sees that your hesitation is putting your future at risk.
He (and I think all of us) would wish that you could cut through the over-thinking, and let someone in-- someone in your RL who could help you more than any of us can.
Part of it is that you've had a few doctors appointments, and these seem like moments when you could take the leap, the risk-- and so this seems like an opportunity, and also a moment when things at school are coming to a point--
That's why he was pushing harder, because the appointment is soon. That may have felt like a rejection-- I don't know nickguy, but I feel very sure that he wasn't wanting you to leave here.
