my apologies, I forgot to reference the appropriate post, the above was not pointed at OP but at some who tend to enter threads with venom pointed at all members of a group, when only a single meber of that group is doing something.
Of course we don't despise all men.....just that some women have had experience with this kind of thing. I posted because my daughter has experienced something similar very recently and it was hurtful to say the very least.
We had to keep our senses of humour intact when you and Ray were insulting our intelligence a few days ago didn't we?
I experienced a similar thing many years ago. I was seeing a guy for a few months and I actually relocated to (near sheffield) to live with him. At the time I also had a 2 and half year old and he had a 4 year old.
We actually lived together for about a year but I was always aware (even before I moved in with him) that he was friends with a woman at work. However, he always insisted it was just friendship which I believed as obviously I wouldn't have moved in with him if I'd thought otherwise.
Anyway, after 11 months he also started to go quiet and giving me all the crap about being confused and not knowing what to do. Then I found out that she had told him she had feelings for him.
It was obvious to me that his heart wasn't obviously fully with me if he was being so affected by her declaring her feelings for him..
Soo, the next week I kicked him into touch and moved back to my original town and that was the end of that
But, anyway... hopefully your story will work out differently for you...so I wish you good luck
In my mind, if said person can indeed be taken away, than the reality is the relationship is in trouble anyway. While the short term might hurt, you're better off in the long-term. But perhaps that is just me.

I am sorry you are going through this. It must be very painful for you.
You can't make someone be with you. He has to figure out what to do. But the question is, what do you want to do?
If you love him very much, I guess patience is your answer. However, in matters with the heart, that is very difficult to do. Let your heart be your guide. Good luck to you!
Jan could you kindly point me in the direction of Ray's indignity, as I have entered into a discourse with him and have taken it upon myself to show him his wrongs and drag apologies out of him. The apology is not for you as you are not in need of it, it is for Ray so he will refrain from his mannerisms with others who are not strong enough to deal with him. I am 'policing' his actions here and would like to rub his nose in his error with you and I would assume others so as to train him to deffacate outdoors. He is just a young lad and his voice need not be contagious to others.
