A female Ireland age 41-50, anonymous writes:

i like this guy but he is trying to control me. ive been through all this kind of stuff before. Now ive realized what he is trying to do i am breaking away from him. Was it ok for me to tell him 'look i really like you a lot and im upset but we both want different things in our lifes and i need to move on and find someone who wants the same things as i do'. He is business minded and i am not, i want some one who wants a family life. I feel really down at the moment but i am not going to allow him to break me down as i know what i want in a guy. I feel like an idiot for telling him i liked him a lot and im upset but i was only being honest and im that kind of person that can say how i feel and walk away. I just dont want him to think im weak.

Who cares if he thinks you're weak. What you did proves that you're stronger than you're giving yourself credit for. You took a situation that you knew would not work and instead of forcing it to work with disasterous consiquences in the end, you did the hardest thing of all. You stood up and broke it off. It wasn't easy but it was for the better. You just saved both of you a long and miserable life.

You can't change people and you shouldn't settle for something you know won't make you happy. It will only cause pain and regret in the long run. Congrats on being smart and mature!!
