Is it fair to say that I have control of myself and/or situation here? That somehow now, the ball is in my court. That I have the position of "this is my standard"... do you accept or not.. cuz, if you don't... I'm ok & moving on?

Are you asking if you should say this to him? If you are...no, you don't say another word to him about it. Keep your mouth shut, duct tape it or whatever you need to do. Your actions needs to match up w/your words. You said you'd give him time, so give him time.

Magic, you have had control over you and your situation for quite some time...you just have to decide when you've had enough of the bs and how long you are willing to wait around for him to commit. Again, the question you need to ask yourself...how long are you willing to wait? One year, two, or more? What if he never commits? Look at how much time you will have wasted waiting for someone who is quite happy w/his life the way it is right now. Live your life to the fullest because you never know what tomorrow will bring. You don't want to waste one minute more than necessary when there is so much to do and experience in this world. We don't get the opportunity to "do over" once we are gone.


Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to.
The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
