"It's not you...it's me! Well, actually, it is you, but who's splitting hairs. Gotta run, don't want to be late for my date.":cool:

cynics. :laugh:

 

It's a vague statement, and could mean anything.

 

Maybe he feels like he's being controlled, that he's lost his "freedom" to think for himself anymore. It's self centered, but perhaps you should take a look at the context of your relationship, and see where he might have gotten that idea. Perhaps he's going through a period of mental/emotional instability, and believes whether right or wrong, that you're partly to blame for it. I don't know, but it doesn't necessarily mean he's banging other women.

all of the above...

 

feels chained down either by not hooking up with other women or you being overbearing/controlling (not saying you are; simply his perception)

I'd really like to go nail that chick over there ( she has a hot ass ) but I can't do it with you around and us being together at this time.. so I really would like time to be my own man..

Posted

I'm a man. I'll be honest, though I've never said it, if I did the translation would be...

 

"I've found someone else I'd like to plow, and I'm telling you this, because I don't want you to think I'm a sleazeball for not being happy with what's right in front of me"

He wants to explore his gay side ;)

 

To me, it means he wants to be independent of romantic commitments and responsibilities and be free and autonomous.

 

That's kinda how I feel right now, going through a divorce. Marriage is a big commitment and responsibility. Took a lot out of me, obviously more so than a successful marriage would have. Time to recharge :)

I don't want to be your man right now.

I'm too immature to tell you the truth so I will try in my convoluted way to break it off. I am not happy with you so I will come up with some lame excuse. Believe me if someone wants to be with you nothing will stop them come hell or high water. My ex told me the same thing when he broke up with me...3 days later he had his dating profile back up on the dating site where we met. So much for wanting to be alone and work on himself...

...for now"

 

...but I might want to be with you later (if who I have in mind doesn't pan out)/please don't be a bunny-boiler/I can't be definitive for _[self-serving]_ reason."

i need to tell a lie. In all honesty I have found someone else and you are holding me back.

Funny, I had the second part typed out exactly as you said it but changed my mind about posting it.

Remember, in these types of situations, people don't lie to you to make you feel better, it's to make themselves feel better.

I'm a man and basically said that to my EX about 9 months ago.

 

I was with her for 4 years, loved her to death, but was miserable with where I was in my life career wise, health wise , everything.

 

I wish I didn't have to dump her, but the fact is I wouldn't of gotten all the things I wanted to accomplish in the past 9 months done. I needed that time for myself, and still need more. I have no interest in any other woman, I still love her and think of her daily, but I don't want a relationship now.

 

I hope that we will reconnect in the future, but I didn't want to string her along and wait for me.

 

 

So its case by case, maybe he wants to be alone to work on himself, maybe he doesn't want to be with you.

F*CK OFF

 

Interpret it this way and you'll get your head around the reality quicker. x

"I want to f*ck around right now. I dont want to be with you. I want to do guy stuff without having to worry about you...i want to see what other women are out there....but if i dont find anything better maybe ill come back."

 

 

SELFISH***

In either case it means the same thing:

 

I'm sick of you.

"i want to Dipty dip on that catnip and go and play with a new Kitty"

 

You need to tell him to hit the road jack and don't he dare come back no more.

It means he doesn't want to have to answer to a woman right now. When a man is trying to go places in life a nagging and controlling woman is like a weight around his neck and he wants to drop that weight.
