Thank you for your replies...I will try to keep posting..am a wreck, he is coming tomorrow evening to get more stuff...he has rented a hotel room for a week and is looking for an apartment...he says he loves me but it is over and then he says maybe we could try seeing each other in the future..but does not want to give me false hope...says maybe I will be a better person for the next man in my life...I don't know how to hold on to him, and don't want this to be the end...I can handle a separation..and think it may even be good, but I want to sense some hope...
