Then one night he called, the next week i went to the hospital very sick. We began talking and i've been working on being really honest with this man - showing him the real me,I know he loves me but he keeps me at bay. He says he doesn't want a relationship with me. But we can't stay away. I will never love another man, I'm done, and dont fake well.So the question for me is; Do men ever change there minds in matters of the heart? Reply to this Question

See the thing about our relationship is that it was interracial.I'm a black woman and he is a white Man. I always said that this kind of relationhip was ok but when i was faced with someone of another race. i freaked out and scared him too. If i lose him it will be my own fault. I love him so much he change my life. We talked everyday for 4 year i was at his house or he was at mine. when we didnt talk for the 8mos i thought of him every day. i could feel when he thought of me. We are pretty close its almost like we feel each other. I know it sounds crazy but, Its very real. We would meet up wearing the same clothes and all the time not planned at all.

 I'm honestly not sure on this. Some men do and some don't. A man I was very much in love with many years ago wouldn't touch me because he said I was always duplicitous. I wanted him and stopped lying and scheming and showed only a positive image of myself, listening to what he had to say and being there for him but no too pushy. This seemed to work as he wanted to be with me but ever contrary I'd lost interest after all that effort! I think it depends on how much the man was initially attracted to you in the first place and this affects matters whatever you have done. Some forgive because they still really fancy you others will think 'hey I don't like being treated like this' and will never change their views whatever you do. As some great poster put on here the one who likes you the least has the upper hand in any relationship.
You seem to be doing all the right things with this guy to rebuild your relationship. I have found always coming across as a decent , interesting, outgoing human being with no neediness, bitterness or desperation is the key. Do show interest in their work and what they have been doing and show yourself only in a positive light. You seem to be doing everything right and I am sure he has changed his view on you already and is already seeing you in a different light. Often these things take time so slowly goes, just go with the flow see how he is changing towards you and go with it.
