It does feel like a rejection because he's got a wonderful woman, who, deep down, still loves him, and has all the qualities he listed!
GGG, in my experience, teenage boys very rarely have the maturity and self-control to even recognize the best match for a mature, adult, responsible, fun, lasting marriage...that's why so few teenagers are married. IMO
You know what his problem issss????? It's like the phrase from the Breakfast Club..."Chicks can't hold dey smoke! That's the problem."
He couldn't HANDLE a mature relationship right now...thus, he is avoiding the one he has. More fun to have teenage fantasies.
Use the time he's given you wisely to see what issues you have to deal with...They ALLLLLL come up when we've been abandoned. Every ancient insecurity and feelings of past rejections...they all come bubbling to the surface. Pay attention to them while they are out in the open and look at them. You may find, at the end of the day, he isn't nothin like what our authentic self would settle for. Poor guy. Poor, sad, lying, cheatin, weasel with sex issues.
