He says he loves me yet wants to be single, it's driving me insane!

Question - (4 July 2008) 3 Answers - (Newest, 7 July 2008)
A female Canada age 36-40, anonymous writes:

Dear Cupid,

My boyfriend and I broke up about 2 months ago after some complications in the relationship. During this time, he's gone back and forth between wanting to get back together and not wanting to get back together. I think it may have been because I made it too easy for him after the break up. He claims he still loves me and that he was happy but just feels like being single now. We are both still fairly young so I know commitmment can be a problem, but at the same time it's driving me insane.

I've already deleted his number out of my phone even though it's practically memorized: I figure not seeing it might make the heart-mending process slightly easier. Any other advice?

Sincerely,

Confused and heart-broken

Thanks for the advice. For now, I think taking my space to recover and focus on me is the best course of action. However, when I feel ready, I hope to be friends with him. Despite the challenges we're facing right now, I do believe we could be together again one day.

So I will just let time run its course.

Fabulous Fairy  agony auntHey there,

This sounds to me a bit like he is having his cake AND eating it. It seems to me that he doesnt really know what he wants.

The question that you really need to be asking yourself is what do YOU want right now. Do you want to be with someone that isnt quite sure whether they want to be with you or not?

Deleting his number off of your phone is the first step to getting over him, but if you really want to move forward then you need to see that you are worth much more than what he is offering you.

I know its tough - trust me ive been there ( several times) but at the end of the day you want someone who wants to be with you and not any one else. So let him be single - at the end of the day if he really did love you then he would want to be with you.

Hope this helps a little bit. Good luck and just remember how fabulous you are :-)
