I'm being "guilted" into staying friends too. He gets me to do this by reiterating how sorry he is that it has to be this way...and that he wishes everything could be different...and that he wishes that I could understand why he has to do this for his kids. And that he really needs to just have a "normal" conversation with a "friend" tonight. Blah, blah, blah. Fine...I understand...just because he thinks he had a good reason to end it doesn't mean I'm any less hurt. He thinks that I think that he's a selfish bastard though I've never expressed this to him. I've only said that I understand why he made his decision and that he needs to realize how much that decision took away from ME. And ME is really the only person that I have to care about now. Why the hell would he expect me to still be concerned with his feelings when there is no "us?" I AM still concerned...but he has no right to expect that from me. I can't count the number of times I've wanted to scream..."what the hell do you want from me?" Yeah...it would be great if we could just be friends and act like this never happened...but it did. He might be starting to "get it"...tonight he apologized and said that he won't call anymore. But I know that he will.
Sorry this is off of the thread topic...I just had to respond to owl's comments. Ughh....it feels so good to vent.
I've tried many times to no avail to end this relationship so I'm letting you know it's over between us period no discussion. I will not contact you so don't contact me.
This may seem a little unsensitive but if you leave an excuse of any type to contact you they will.
He has not tried to contact me in 3 days so I was just hoping he won't and I would not have to do anything. I will tell him when and if he calls that it is over. I probably will not answer the phone and email him that it is over. Sound good?
