He said he had the biggest crush on me when I was in high school, so we had a couple of dates and he said all the right things, we spent lots of time together and our relationship was unbelievably fast moving, he insisted that I meet his close friends and family and even his daughter. He underwent surgery and recuperated at my home - then decided he was scared he could not match up to me and said he had to leave, I helped him pack and when he was leaving he just shook my hands and said thank you. I am so confused. I really thought he meant everything he said. The last time I spoke to him 3 wks ago, he said we should let our relationship breathe. What should I do? Thank you

Tell him to man up and let you know the deal. I think the relationship probably moved a little too fast, as you said yourself... and that probably scared him away. I say, dont call him. Let the man be. This way you'll avoid any more heartbreak or confusion and he'll know that the world just doesnt revolve around him.
good luck. God Bless.
