what am I missing here?
| Wed, 08-18-2004 - 10:28am |
if a guy that broke up with you tells you that he likes and wants to be friends. He also tells you that he's phisically attracted, but his heart is not there. What was missing for a relationship for him to break up??

How long were you dating?
It could be that you both could take a break, but better would be to understand that maybe the relationship development got "compressed" into the time periods you could actually spend time with each other. If you could both take a step or two back and move forward slowly allowing things to unfold more naturally, that might help. Yes, you are right--people do fight and make up. The thing is - 1. you need to have developed a foundation where both parties are invested enough not to walk away at the first sign of adversity and 2. you need to find a way to express your needs/issues without it turning into conflict/confrontation.
I hope things work out for you!
