Amgila41 Posted November 8, 2008 Posted November 8, 2008 HI - So, i broke up with a guy I was dating about 3 weeks ago, the reason for the breakup: the relationship was not moving forward after seeing/talking/dating eachother for the last 6 months. He says: I can not promise you that I could invest more time in growing the relationship. Says that he is busy and only makes time for three things in his life; His job, his friends & me (in that specific order). I responded with - I think people make time for what they want. His last words to me were, (as i get up to leave) you are a tough cookie. Since then, I am unable to shake those 2 words out of my mind. What the hell does he mean? And isn't it a bit unfair to put the blame on me - as i was the one keeping us together. Mind you, he agreed and took accountability for not putting more effort into the relationship. What was the tough cookie comment all about...
amaysngrace Posted November 8, 2008 Posted November 8, 2008 I don't know but it doesn't sound good. Are you very demanding or something?
Trialbyfire Posted November 8, 2008 Posted November 8, 2008 only makes time for three things in his life; His job, his friends & me (in that specific order) I would be more concerned about this statement. If he puts you behind his job and friends, that's not very high prioritization for a romantic relationship. As for the tough cookie comment, you demand what he's unable/unwilling to give. There's nothing wrong with expectations as long as you're okay with the consequences associated to them. Let's see if he's happy with his consequences, in the coming months. I suspect he'll be contacting you again but who knows for certain.
carhill Posted November 8, 2008 Posted November 8, 2008 OP, it's a compliment. You're a tough cookie he's not going to get to eat Next...
