Beth - Thanks for your advice. I have been going back and forth on that one for awhile. I am very affraid to lean on him. I am affraid that if I do, then I am going to start to need him. If I need him then I cant let go. But what if me needing him helps fill his love bank? He keeps saying how strong I am, that he always knew that I could handle things because I am strong. Maybe it was my strength that helped drive him away. But yet, he left when I was at my most broken. When I was needy and desperate, all my strength was drained. This is just one I cant figure out on my own.


Sweetie,

It almost sounds as if that he's giving you a clue to his love language. Sometimes we are so strong and self sufficient that they don't feel needed, and believe me there are lots of guys that have to feel needed to feel worth it!

Look, only you know how it was said and his inflection as he said it. Think about it. Do you think he only said that because he was making small talk or was he trying to really tell you how important this was to him? Think about it and then decide. I don't think it ever hurts to let someone do something for you that makes them feel good about themselves.
