Upside, You have run the long race, when at the end you are exausted, you want to quit. Can you see the finish line? You must dig a little bit deeper, and pull up that last bit of endurace to finish the race. You have been at it a long time, dont quit when you could be so close to the end. If you were to quit now you could spend the rest of your life wondering "what if".
Focuse on your life, give him the time he needs to finish baking,take the pressure off of you both. Have an attitude of "I'm starting a new life, would you care to join me?" don't feel like your waiting for him, have some fun, keep moving on with your life, he'll him catch up with you. This will take the pressure off of you and him, and perhaps draw him even closer.
Keep that candle burning, be happy, be strong, be yourself.
