I fear letting him go because it seems that its what I had done while we were in a relationship. I didnt make him my number one. Something in my mind tells me if I act as if I dont really care what hes doing, Ill lose him further. Im afraid of not letting him know what I am doing when Im doing stuff because thats what I had done before. I just want to do whats right, you know?
Clinging, suffocating fear is NOT attractive to a man. I can assure you. A strong, confident woman who WANTS me -- if I ever find myself available again -- but doesn't NEED me . . . is very sexy and attractive.
Most men don't dig "needy." (and nearly ALL women don't).
