writes: I had been dating someone for 2.5 years. It was mostly long distance since we went to different colleges, but we would spend summers together and both graduated and came back to our hometowns and were finally together. However, right before graduation he started to talk to another girl and we kinda broke up. He was honest about everything and never did anything with her. We got back together and Summer was good, but a transition time since we both live at home and I had a"real" job and he was still unsure of what he wanted to do. Now, he just broke it off again saying he needs to make sure this is right. He says he loves me and hopes we will get back together forever, but needs time to figure things out. (Job, living, girls) I think he is stressed about being in the "real world" and scared that marriage is the next step. We have talked about it, but never anything serious. I do not want to get married soon. I don't know if I should let him go completely or try to be a friend? He has gone on a couple of dates to which he said he has no interest in the girls. I on the other hand do not care to go on meaningless dates until I find someone that interests me. Any thoughts?

Keep your options open and do not shut your door to other men.He is not ready for any serious relationship.Just let him go and be friends only.He has to find his niche first before he has the confidence to come back for you. If somewhere down the road ,your path crossed and you are still single , you can rekindle your relationship.
