Should I Wait for Him
| Mon, 09-27-2004 - 5:23pm |
I have been with my boyfried for one year now. We moved things along quite quickly in the last year. We met shortly after his divorce and a year into mine. I have two kids and he has two kids. The beginning of the relationship was great as it always is but he wasn't sure at first if he was ready to be in a relationship and broke up with me. Then not even a day later called me to tell me he made a mistake. We got even closer. Then he thought we should move in together, but had a panic attack and went missing for a night and came back and said he needed time to think and knows that he is completely committed to this relationship, we were great. 4 months of living together and he starts looking for houses and we get on the same checking accout. Then out of no where he tells me that he decides he can't handle my kids and doesn't know if he can do this anymore. Merging two families is hard and takes alot of patience and work. We talked it out and decided to see each other, but take some time. I agreed. I don't know if I am doing the right thing or not. Should I just walk away, but I love him so much. I know he said it was my kids, but I haven't heard from him in a week. Is this man just playing me for a big fool. I had a bad marriage and so did he (both our spouses cheated on us) and I know that did alot to us and how we handle our relationship (trust, commitment, etc....)Please respond and tell me what you think.

If he does come back, I would insist on couples counseling, and strongly suggest that he do individual counseling as well. In the meantime, you might look into individual counseling yourself.
