writes:I need your advice. I am in my forties and have been dating this wonderful man for 10 mths. He recently broke up with me because he is financially broke and he says he feels less of a "man" since I have been paying for everything. He says he's need to get his life in order before he can build a relationship. I feel like everything is amazing with us. I can't imagine being with anyone else but I don't know how long before if and ever he will commit to me again. He says it is selfish of him to put me through this with him. We have still been seeing each other and when we are together everything feels like it use to. I don't know if I should keep hanging on to show him how much I care and money doesn't matter or start dating other men? I don't know if I should tell him how I feel but I don't want to pressure him or should I just make our time enjoyable? Thanks so much for your help.

Pull back. When in trouble, men often don't need sympathy. They need time. As long as he's out of money and pride, not a thing you do will make a difference to him. Your best bet is to pull away from him and start to move on. You'll waste a huge amount of time if you don't.
