CindyCares agony aunt I think what he said it's rather self explanatory, he liked you as a person, and appreciated you as a partner because of your qualities and behaviour, but did not feel a lot of chemistry physically.

Why did he stay one year nevertheless, well, I can only offer a guess, not a fact. In fact, two guesses , the good guy option and the bad guy option.

The good guy guess : because he honestly wanted to give it a try and honestly he wanted and hoped your relationship could work, knowing that in the long run compatibility is more important than physical attraction, and that passion fades away in time anyhow. But at some point he missed the "spark " too much, and felt that the relationship was somewhat incomplete.

The bad guy guess : because he couldn't, or thought he couldn't , get anything better at the time. So he was biding his time, which wasn't anyway such a big sacrifice, since he liked your personality,- waiting for occasions to upgrade.

Was he recently out of a relationship when you met him? It sounds like you may have been a rebound, and he only recently came to terms with that. It can happen, unfortunately.
