I am in a relationship with a man that I love very much and want to build a future with. I am 48 and been divorced for 13 yrs he however has been separated from his wife for 2.5 years and is still in divorce proceedings. We have been seeing one another for two years. My problem is that I want to remarry eventually and worry that he will never be able to commit to me the way that I need him to. I know that he loves me but he has not said or done anything to make me think he wants a future with me. Just recently he left for Hawaii for three weeks, we had a two week rule, and he left the day before our two year anniversary. It really hurt my feelings that he would not only leave the day before our anniversary but be ok with being away from me for three weeks. He owns a house in Hawaii and he owns his own business so he could have went at any time. He has been over there

First of all, if you have been together for 2 years then why don't you just ask him?

Have you asked him about his long term plans - in general - regardless of his situation with you?
