Don of course nailed it and has been following you longer than I have.
Don could handle FWB and I could handle it. You cannot. You’ll say you can but like most stuff lately with you is a lie.
I’ve been hockey guy before. Telling you he’s not ready for a relationship frees him of any guilt when he doesn’t want to do this anymore and or starts sleeping with other women. “I told you I wasn’t ready for a relationship”.
Unless he’s a straight out player every man is ready for a relationship if he feels he’s with the right one.
You sent him the proverbial “contact me when you’re ready to date for real”. Words and actions aren’t congruent and believe he knows it.
This is really getting sad to see but I’m not sure what else we can do other than watch this train wreck unfold and hope the casualties are low.
You’re better than this but until you believe it nothing changes.
