myrnaday Posted October 26, 2004 Posted October 26, 2004 I met him 19 yrs ago, we've been very close for about the last 8 yrs. He says he'll marry me, someday, but someday never comes. His most recent reason for not marrying is he doesn't want to drive so far to go to work. I guess I finally had enough of his excuses, and broke it off. Surprisingly, I felt a sense of relief once I ended it, which tells me how unhappy I have been with this "going nowhere relationship". Now I need to understand why I settled for less, for so long? I don't want to make the same mistake again. It's ironic to me that I am able to handle my professional life with such confidence, and determination. I don't settle for excuses but seek positive outcomes. I enjoy problem solving, and especially enjoy working with people, yet in my personal life I don't have the same confidence or determination. Hopefully, in time I'll figure it out and who knows, maybe even venture into to the love relationship world again.
Naive Posted October 26, 2004 Posted October 26, 2004 Face it, you were in love and that made you put up with him dragging on the lie that you were going to get married.
