Hey Starsky.. I truly believe that too.. I totally let him treat me like crap! I totally jammed commitment/marriage down his throat for 20 years... chasing him. Never letting it come naturally from him.
~~~~~~~~~~~
its about pressure, and labels.... he's afraid to disappoint me. Having expectations for commitment, when he just wants to "review the possibility". I think I just need to let it "be"... for now.
If anyone can recall, I am one who "controls the outcome"... constantly trying to steer the ship. I need to back off... just live, take the pressure off and see what happens. First sign of bad habits again, back away.
Exclusive- safe environment to see if our relationship is workable, without outsiders, without expectation. As if you are with a brand new person.
