Recently he decided that he didnt think us seeing each other was a good idea. He says he's really confused about what he's feeling and I'm an amazing woman and he wishes he was ready to give more but he's not ready just yet. He was in a previous relationship with a single mother for many which didnt work out and I think it was hard on both of them. Anyway, he asked if we could still talk on the phone and I told him that I'd think about it. He really is a nice guy and I care about him. I would love to have him in my life and I know that's partially because I'm hoping that one day he might be ready. Do you think I should maintain contact or just cut ties?

He is entitled to his opinion and you're entitled to yours. You come as a package and your priority has to be the child. When you meet someone who truly is worthy of your love, it will be someone who accepts you and your child. This does not make him bad either. He has been honest. At this age though he's really limiting his dating pool by having these requirements.

I think for your own sake, you need to cut contact with him. Don't think he will change his mind, because he probably won't, and you deserve stability in your life. Many women have stood around waiting for a man to change his mind, and many women have been left hurt. If he won't commit to you now, he won't, and you need to move on and find someone who will.
