Question - (29 July 2009) 1 Answers - (Newest, 30 July 2009)
A female United States age 41-50, anonymous writes:

My ex is giving me every indication that he wants to get back together even talking about why we split up...even to the point of saying people don't agree on everything. However he seems to be taking things very slowly. He is very emotional and was hurt and he way of protecting his heart is to spend time to himself working on his house. My questions is how slow is too slow? Also, I feel like I should wait for him to call. I know if I call him to get together he will immediately, but think I should wait for him. Had dinner 2 nights ago, I was busy last night. How much time to I give him? i know the love is there but his fear is also there. Any suggestions? P.S. We both can be stubborn.

Give it a bit of time and keep it light. Seems like he is just fearful of being hurt again. But you must also think of yourself because no matter how much you love him if he does not come around soon you are causing yourself emotional termoil and you might be losing out on meeting someone really great. You can be there to help someone over their fears but only they can do it for themselves. I am sure he does love you or he would not be around. Let him chase you a bit. We all have issues especially as we get older, but remember you want that one person who stands by you and loves you. Good luck and hang in there and remember YOU are the best.
