JustChillin agony auntThanks so much for all of your answers on this one. They're ALL great answers!! What makes it even harder on me...is that I LOVE this man unconditionally, unfortunately it appears that with his nonchalant attitude towards our relationship...he evidently doesn't feel the same unconditional LOVE towards me. =( I do appreciate all of you that took time to answer my question. =)

It means he has done that before, it didn't work and he got hurt and let down. This time he is digging in and you will pay the price for that with his stubborness and coldness. My boyfriend was like that almost said those words. Game over.

dearkelja agony auntIt means if you want to go dancing and he doesn't, he wont go. It means he won't go to your family doos if he doesn't feel like it. It means he won't put up with any nagging or tears from you. It means that he won't cook you dinner or massage your feet if you've had a bad day. Basically it means he will not compromise, he will not put you first, ever. If you've had a bad day, don't come complaining to him.

In a relationship that is not a good position to take. So, I say tell him, I don't expect you to jump through hoops, just doors and don't let the big one hit you in the ass on the way out.

it means he has a big ego and "wont take any of ur crap". Hes pretty much putting u in ur place, which evidently under his feet, possibly between his toes. He's perhaps trying to be macho and all "I AM GOD"-like. Which wouldnt surprise. Men seem to think they truly are gods.

It means he doesn't think you're worth the effort. My advice = Move on.
