letting go is painful

[Crazy Magnet]

So it feels terrible and I still feel torn. Naturally I wanted things to work out but I think the pain of staying with someone who is unsure about me as a life partner continually hoping he eventually picks me is worse than the pain of walking away. I finally had my moment and put it out there. If he wasn't ready to commit that was ok, he had that choice, but I had the choice to leave, and that's what I chose.

 

He was upset with me in how I brought it up (I just called him in the room and laid it out there) which I understand. But there was still no declaration from him about how he wanted to work it out or anything like that. I can take that hint!!

 

He did say he wanted to talk about it more on Saturday because he needed to think about it. I'm not sure what he needs to think about but I guess I'll find out.

I totally agree with Renee. I agree that you should be move that someone who wants to be with you. It isn't worth the pain of staying with someone who doesn't know if they want you as a life partner. Don't worry, one day you will meet someone who will know they want you. Lastly, don't give this man the power of choice. You do what is best for you. Don't wait for him. I know it hurts. Stay strong.

((hugs)) to you. It's a horrible position to be in. Hopefully he will think about it over the next couple of days. Maybe he needs to figure out what he really wants too. It might just make him wake up!! Who knows!

Really hope it works out I think if Saturday comes and he still doesn't want to commit to anything, you have to decide what's right for you and what you'd like from this relationship, and whether it's worth continuing in this vein. ((hugs)) again

I'm sorry. In the end though, it's really for the best. If someone doesn't want to be with you and be committed to you then you are entitled to find someone who is.
