He's unhappy!
| Tue, 06-22-2004 - 10:50pm |
My boyfriend of more than 3 years, to whom I was planned to get married this summer (which won't happen for some other reasons), says that he is a man of freedom, and needs to be free and the relationship, not me in particular is tieing him down.
He says he wants to experiment and do what he wants as he likes without feeling guilty about the right or wrong of it.
He is wonderful and we love each other dearly. He is my first boyfriend and my whole world depends on him. I need help. Tell me what to do.

HOwever, you are not a doormat. He can be free - but can no longer have exclusivity because that means you are free, too. I would not have sex with him because that should only be in a committed monogamous relationship.
Maybe he will continue with the freedom, or maybe he will miss you.
I would tell him - have fun. But you are going to have fun by yourself because this is not what I want.
You will get over this. It will just take time. Break ups are very hard.
