I would really really appreciate if someone would let me know if this sounds reasonable. I also amattaching the history below but you don't have to read it it's looooong!

 

(To Person who lives overseas)

 

I am racked with guilt about sending the email about us being friends and not dating anymore. I feel worried that is not what you wanted and I threw the proverbial baby out with the bathwater. It seemed like you could not make a decision about whether you would want to see me or not so I made one. I am not happy about it. I do need time to rearrange my life and take care of my Mom.

 

I understand your trepidations about our future. I cannot guarantee anything but I feel very strongly that we do and will get along under normal circumstances. And I have every reason to believe that I will be able to move back to London, when I am done taking care of my Mom. I will make it work as you are worth it.

This is the only part that matters. You're not sure what will happen but you're going to "maybe" be with him later.

 

This does not work. You're not willing to commit; all you have is maybe's. I really hope your Mom gets better, but as far as this relationship -

 

call it OVER and spare the guy some future heartbreak.

Oh, by the way the break up was kind of mutual however I was making life easier for us both. But what if I find a way to get over there and know about it in a month how and when and everything. I want to live there anyway and plan to leave by August or sooner. Do I still have a shot?

do whatever you feel like, just please don't string the poor bastard along. Call it over but try your f*cking damndest to make it work anyway.

I like your attitude. And your avatar, however you spell it.

This is one of those rare cases where you should want to "just be friends" while you have personal business that needs your attention.

 

After .... well, who knows, but at least you can still have a good friend.
