When someone says I'm falling for you do you catch them or let them fall?


Let me explain My best friend met a man online. They had been seeing each other for several months. She finally expressed the feeling she might be falling for him. She asked if he was feeling the same way. His reply was "Trust me I wouldn't waste your time like that" They continued seeing each other for 2 months allowing her to fall even harder. Then he emails her to say it just wasn't working out and he couldn't call her because he didn't want to hear her cry.

So when someone is falling for you do you catch them or let them fall?

If you are falling and the person says they are not let that person go. Don't go deeper, it'll hurt even more.

You read my mind single I think there are always signs that something isn't right.

And just to let you know I would catch them if their were no intentions there.

when some people hear that from someone, they are also hearing that they are falling on them and step aside, with never a twinge of guilt at what they have induced, encouraged and in some cases seduced...the more "games" we play, the more people we hurt...

You would think there would of been some warning signs to this? Sometimes we tend to ignore the signs becuase we would rather be in denial because we are afraid of losing them.

Depends on the situation, if your feelings are saying let it go, then let it go. If your feelings say something else then listen to those. I trust my feelings. Although, feelings like alot of things are subject to change.

In my book action will always speak louder than any words will.

I guess it depends on how long we've been seeing each other and if i feel the same. I've had guys say that to me way before i've felt it and i just cringe. I've even had them use the "L" word way before i've felt it and it just complicates things. I have them explain why they feel like that and let them know i care for them but i'm just not in that place yet and sometimes i felt i wasn't going to get to that point and now i felt trapped. I'd rather let actions speak the words on both parts for a while before either one of us says anything and have a chance of ruining a relationship too fast. A girl loves to be told those sweet things but we also need to feel them from the other person more importantly.

I agree with a few of you.Lioness, a lot of times the signs are there....but excuses are made out of fear,or hope.Actions do indeed speak louder then words.

from experience ive come to the conclusion that you shouldnt put ur feelings on the table unless u are very sure that the feeling is mutual. b/c if not ur just setting urself up for heartbreak.especially when a guy says "trust me i wouldnt waste your time like that." that was a sign right there.and he wasnt a man in the first place if you going to break up with a woman be a man about it.not wanting to hear her cry wasnt a good excuse...lol i think.and just b/c you meet someone online doesnt mean you break up online.if that makes sense.

All of the above.

And I also think that if a couple has met in person ,and shared time, the breakup should be in person , also.

There are exceptions , of course. If distance precludes , or threat of violence , or if the breaker-upper couldn't emotionally get through a face-to face meeting.

I'm having this happening to me right now. I'm married, but the relationship between my wife and I, has been only a friendship for many years. We still live together and until recently, our 2 daughters were still living at home. Now, we are alone. Over the past few years, my wife has seen other men and recently, I have been seeing a younger woman. My "problem" is that this woman has fallin for me, BIG TIME and wants to see me all the time. My wife knows about this younger woman, but doesn't know ALL the particulars. The more I see this woman, the more she wants. I've been telling her that my situation (right now), limits me to spending alot of time with her. She understands this, but is getting a bit frustrated. I wish she would move on and find someone that can give her a long-term relationship. Any advice?

not being mean but get a divorce! I don't understand why 2 people stay married but live seperate lives get girlfriends or boyfriends. Why put youself thru it your spouse thru it people you get involved with? Please get a divorce first...

thanks aprilblossom.....
divorce is something we both talked about...alot! and it does seem like the best thing to do. However...we've known each other for over 30 years (married 25) and still enjoy being together. Call it "crazy", but even through the roughest times, we seem to always end up together. I think for both of us (although, I can't speak for her), is that we still love each other, but we're not 'ín love', with each other any more. I believe that is why I am looking for it elsewhere.
