i apologize for the plethora of threads ive started recently regarding my seesawing feelings for this guy. furthermore, i apologize for the poor grammar and punctuation - the only internet connection that i have at home, is through my phone.

 

anyway, i would like help figuring out if this is going anywhere, and if i should end it. a simple vote yay or nay on both counts would be appreciated. if you can give me an argument one way or the other, even better. i am legitimately confused.

 

background info:

-have been seeing each other about five months, roughly two - three times a week, thru a combo of legit dates and fwb types activities (barhops and sleepovers)

-exclusive as of when we started sleeping together, which was almost immediately

-good chemistry, solid friendship, but no talk of feelings whatsoever

-i have met both sides of his family, and get invited to all fam. events (easter, weddings)

-when i asked if we were in a relationship, he dodged the question

 

my background:

-devastating relationship almost three years ago, after which i've dated here and there but essentially stayed single

-in love with my boss, whom i can neither get over due to having to see him every day, nor date due to workplace policy and/or his lack of interest

 

his background:

-serial monogamist since high school

-i unintentionally stole him from his last gf, with whom hed been together for 4 years

 

 

we have fun together, but when were apart, im distinctly aware of the fact that were not in love. i havent been able to open up to him (then again, i havent been able to open up to anyone since my last serious r ended) and i dont feel comfortable reaching out to him for emotional support, largely because i dont believe he is interested in providing it to me.

 

however, there are also some indicators that its going well... so vote

I would break up. You guys don't really have a relationship. He's just sort of somebody to keep around to stave off loneliness. This whatever it is isn't making you fulfilled and is also getting in the way of you finding a meaningful relationship. Please don't stay with him out of inertia. I've made that mistake many times and lived to regret it.
