Dated a guy for two months,had great time together. he was + is true gentleman...too much so.. I realised after two months i didnt want to date him.. this realisation came very sudden. Told him i didnt want to be in a relationship anymore.. Hes GUTTED.. He was + is stone mad about me to the point of OBSESSION!!
He is hopeful that perhaps after time out we will have a future.. i know we wont!!He was VERY BADLY hurt in the past so i am trying to be "gentle"with him. He rings twice a week WITH my permission, Im not leading him on + have told him i dont want him to have false hopes + to go on out there + meet someone new. He says he doesnt want to that he has never felt this way about anyone ever before!!HELP
Ya have to be cruel to be kind I think as much and all as u say it that ur not ur givin him mixed signals. as long as u keep talkin to him on the fone and all he wont let go of u. u shud cut all contact as suttle doesnt work with us
Hi, it could be that he is a very insecure person, sadly, and you being a nice person and somewhere along the line has touched him deeply, he cant let go for inner reasons and maybe fear of rejection and being alone and is therefore blocking out that you dont want a relationship anymore..sounds like he still has his past issues to deal with which make a huge impact on his future. Been there a few years back, and with absolutely no intention of hurting him, I think he is causing his own hurt.. You have been honest with him, so rest assured, he'll get the message..its a tough one..to be cruel to be kind..patience...just my thoughts..
Its sad to hear it didnt work out with you both but that is life. First i would tell you to talk with him and tell him how you feel, and there is nothing for you both to build on. Second then tell him no more contact as you are giving him false hope, that someday you could find you like him and want him back. Also you will end up resenting him for the constant contact. You do have to be cruel to be kind as said before, I know you dont want to hurt him as much as you have but you will hurt him more by staying friends.
Take care and i wish you luck as its not nice to be in that postition so take yourself out of it....
