You girls are both right. It is just so hard to see those things in my own situation.
Michelle, you are right about him wanting to cut his rent in half...but why couldn't he do that with me?...we were talking about it afterall. But he wanted to go slow...he needed to be "alone" for a while...which I respected...so why move so fast with this girl? I just thought things were going so good with us.

Why is it that they have to protect themselves from feeling? Do you think that if he gets too close and feels the pain he's causing you that it would make it harder to do what he's doing?
Yes, I do think he has to protect himself from feeling. But, if it is hard for him to do this...then why is he doing it???? I will probably never make sense of all this so I guess I should stop trying before I drive myself crazy.
Everytime he leaves I just have this fear of never seeing him again. We have nothing connecting us. Not even friends. The mutual friends we did have were when we were in TX and he no longer talks to them.
I did have a good weekend. This guy I am hanging out with is very understanding. When xh left I went running with him and when we met up he asked me how it went and I teared up a little. He just gave me a hug and said he knew that it was hard, he has been there and done that, but it does get easier.
I just wish it didn't hurt so bad. I wish I could turn off my emotions the way he can.
