Aww rlch, I'm so sorry to hear that. I truley was hoping and rooting for you on this but as you said you did the best thing for you no matter how hard it was. I commend you for that because it's not easy, not one bit. I've lived it and have known others who are close to me go through the same things as well. Hang in there hon and I KNOW you will be just fine. I think it's best to rip off the bandaid right now and go through the healing process than it is to hang on to someone who doesn't know what he wants and can't give you what you need. Even though I'm sad that this happened, I'm glad that you found the courage within you to take care of your own wants and needs and open up a new door for something even better in the future.
((hugs)) I am so sorry this happened. What you experienced was still so deep and true, I believe. His demons are not yours. As he said, it sounds as if you
Thanks Chick. I too feel badly that he apparently closes himself off to real lasting love. Its so odd b/c if you knew him, it wouldnt seem like that. He seems so open
Yes Niki, you were the one who said that. & from what I have read, that thought has helped a lot of people here. Its a very good point. I mean, we all know a good relationship TAKES work .... but, not the way this started to go.
You're right. It would have been easier, or at least more FUN! lol, to continue as was - enjoying being treated well, spoiled, complimented, etc ... but NO ... *I* had to go & start to fall in love! Cripes! As i told him "It was all fun & games, until ...." lol
But i needed to sort of save myself & my heart, b4 I got in any deeper. Thanks

Sheri - at the end, I did suggest to him very seriously, that he needed professional help with his issues. I pray that he takes my advice.
Thank you SO much for pointing out the words vs. actions issue ... what YOU say makes PERFECT sense. You should publish that!
