nadine5 Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 I met this guy I am crazy about, Rich, about a month ago. WAY too crazy. He is super super handsome (better looking than I am) and HAS WAYYY too many girls after him. To be honest, I do not know why he likes me. So far, he has been very very attentive and sweet...when he wants to be. When we are around other people (mostly girls) he acts like I don't exist. This sets me off. It has made me cry a couple times (unfortunately, in front of him). I'm pretty sure my being upset all the time is driving him away. He basically told me I'm lucky that I haven't driven him away. Ugh. He talks about being committed to me and no one else, but he also says stuff like he's never getting married or living with anyone. -_- I'm not that young anymore (31, he is 32) and I'm looking for something serious. I don't want to break up with him because I like him way too much. How would you guys approach this? I need a third party perspective. Love, Nadine
TheNewMe2014 Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 As I told a very good friend - if you are fighting this early in a relationship and you've already discussed with him your issues...then cut and run before it gets worse. Typically relationships down get easier..they get harder... 2
notserene Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 People are almost always on their best behavior early in a relationship. They let their guard down as time passes. I think if this is his "best" self you need to end it.
chimpanA-2-chimpanZ Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 A future with this man would involve constant fighting, flirting, jealousy, and---in the BEST-case scenario---dating for years but never living together, much less being married. What a catch. You don't even want the same things from each other. Better to let him have a woman willing to put up with that.
somedude81 Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 Nadine, why the heck are you with him? Since you are 31, a handsome face shouldn't be as important to you now that you're no longer young and dumb.
Eivuwan Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 Accept it or leave. He's not going to change. He doesn't even see the problem.
mammasita Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 LISTEN TO WHAT HE TELLS YOU. I say that in all caps because I have been there done that more than once. He will never marry you. Aside from that, to address the topic of your post. Ditch him. He's a douche wearing a Prince Charming costume that doesn't fit. He's already showing his true colors. Who cares how old you are, the more you worry about that, the more prone you are to settle for something glittery that's just a lump of coal under all the shine. Plus 31 is not old. You are at your prime, have fun and find a man who treats you like you're the only woman in the room!
