Monday comes around he doesnt send a good morning text. He was sick for years. Im going to back off my guy and focus on me. Women owe men nothing. I was confident Id see him again. And thats the problem. As I have mentioned before, after he sent the email asking for a break, I waited ovr week to reply. He broke up with me the weekend before one nursing class ended. But its because I truly truly care deeply about this man. This texting scene is absolutely ridiculous. What should i do? These are about the only good signs he has giving me along with being flirty but more recently when talking he takes forever to reply and just doesnt finish the conversation. I met him at work.

Im almost wondering if it was the truth or if he used it as an excuse to disappear. Conversations nothing too too Sorry for the long comment. Jools, thank you. Sad that he didnt respect me enough after all He is cute but not the hottest but I have always been insecure and I dont even care about looks just the chemistry and how much I liked him and how much I cared for him and I felt He was the one suggesting this could lead to something more while we were chatting, he even told me what he wanted to do for our second, even third date He talked about things we could do together after retiring (!) 1) Usually not. like you, i too, need closure from the guy.
