		<description><![CDATA[I have read all of your posts and there is such wisdom.  I had a similar situation with a man I dated and when he said he was not interested in marriage I walked away cold.  It was very, very hard.  I loved him but I never told him.  It has been a month and I have not heard from him.  Why are we all deluding ourselves-these guys know what they are doing-they are nice before the sex and after they are less interested.  I now refuse to become intimate with men I date unless there is a real, long term commitment-words are insignificant and I cannot handle the emotional pain of the insincere physical relationship.  A man can separate sex and love-I cannot.  It is not only me but all of my Gfs I have seen go through this pain from age 20 to 55-it is disheartening-they need to give a relationship a lot of time before getting physical-if he leaves then it is clear what he was after.  Men are so much more ambivalent about relationships now-women have to get real and protect themselves.]]></description>

Yes cut off all contact before you screw it up with your new boyfriend if you haven&#039;t already.
The reason these on-off &quot;relationships&quot; are so compelling is because we like drama, are too stubborn to admit defeat or are hooked on dysfunctional sex.  It&#039;s not worth another hour of your time.  Four years is a long time to wait for the goose to lay the golden egg.  Geese don&#039;t lay golden eggs. Especially not male one.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I feel sad reading most of the comments here. Most women are emotional and sentimental creatures and we really need to develop a strong self to become happy. The biggest mistake most women make is to vehemently believe that a man, a committed relationship, or a marriage will give them happiness. Nothing could be farther from the truth. And she keep heading into the same situation (basically unhappiness) because she is banging her head into a wall, she thinks will make her happy. Wow!! Lets get our fundamentals right here. Nobody in this world, not in the least a man, can make one happy unless she strives to squeeze (yes) it out from within herself. 

Ask yourself these questions: are you polishing your self daily (character), do you challenge youself every moment (strength), have you found it yet - ur true calling, what you love doing, and that gives you joy not stress (mission), are you prepared to face the moment when the worst might happen (not break up, worse stuff) (courage)?? The day one is satisfied with the answers, she will stop hurting herself and before she knows it, she will have her best relationship (with herself first).

And to cut the long story short, I have been in a non-committal relationship for four years now. But I am with someone who has taught me so much about life through his own life that I can&#039;t ever breakup with him even if I wanted to (say if if go off to pluto with another man :)) coz he will be in my life always. And I do not see my relationship as a waste. 

To end, a woman I admire once said, &quot;be happy first, do not marry to be happy.&quot; Cheers.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Sometimes things get complicated, and usually in my experience from sonmeone not having been honest when they aught to have been. 

Over 4 years for me of being crazy about someone I never even met in person and had to leave and said a lot of things in anger I regret becasue partly my terrible past blended in and made what he was doing even worse on my end.

But I have to say.. after years of bitterness and being a hermit.. and even ending it with him now.. I really learned a lot from the experince, I want to blame 1/2 way and yes he was dangling a carrot in some way&#039;s and allowing me to feel too much with the suggestions and hints, then the major blows of oh now he is dating over there etc ect ..

But I had to deal with a lot of pain.. so much pain it was unbearable.. so much feeling worthless that a funny thing happens.

&quot; You just realize there is no way in hell you could be that bad, as bad as your feeling it&#039;s just not really possible to be that damn bad off.&quot;

Even when these guys are players - I mean it is up to us to allow it and to allow those negative thoughts and more.

Luckily with him I always spoke my mind, so this time at least and as always with him klet him know what I think, and that was a HUGE jump from just clamming up as I had always typically done and held it all in and then whinned to a girlfreind about it.

You can if you want take it as an opportunity to get better with yourself, your life, let him go and not be so bitter for once.

It&#039;s like I was somehow &quot;trained&quot; to be bitter just becasue something didn&#039;t go the way I hoped it would witha gut, and I realize that is really NOT any answer, nothing to drag along like a wet sock with me.

So even in leaving a jerk, a commitment phobe, an egomaniac, etc as   at least this one was a freind to the point where I see he is just really messed up right now.

I do not think they all plan to do as much dmage as they do.. They cannot live our history either and see it our way - they only see they are afriad sometines, or just can&#039;t be there even if they want to... Maybe they do that to all wormn for a while becasue they are not ready and maybe even sense your not ready. 

God knows I want things I am not ready for sometimes so badly.. but honestly I am not even ready fro some of thge things I want just yet, But the passion to get them sure as hell exist. 

Maybe sometimes they are to us creul in our eyes, but in their own eyes maybe they feel lacking for their own selves, Maybe often times taking it so personal is not really the answer.

Leaveing them alone yes when you are more able and more feeling is the right thing to do, they may not be on the same level maturity wise and readiness wise perhaps.. Maybe they are afriad of being alone and your better than not being alone, still it&#039;s a problem with HIM and NOT you.. that is where women I think and know from experience bash themselves and wonder too much what is wrong with me?

Maybe there is nothing wrong with you, Yes maybe he is wasting your time then leave, But maybe it is kinda sad he is that afraid of being alone on the other as well.

Feelings are over rated, I found myself saying the stupidest things from feelings then later regretting that - But yes they need to know before you move on why they are doing something wrong at least from your point of view.

We teach them it&#039;s okay I think not saying anything - somethimes they really are clueless that it even is pain inducing to be honest. And you gotta look at how many women nodays are jumping in the sack and things just for a good time, you really have to let it be known what you want and early.

If it scares them off that you want commitmnet one-day the sooner they run the better.

I do not think it is wrong when your just getting to know someone to let them know you would like to one-day get married at all.. I think it is a &quot;trick&quot; to them if you do not let them know, mentioning it don&#039;t mean it has to be THEM - but I really think we as women that want these things need to make it clear what we want too.

Things can get complex, there are always two sides to the strory, yes some people are just players and will string you along carelessly and have no deapth, NOT enough depth for you.

So my thinking right now is really when things do not work, are not working out - then leave, suffer for a few days some pain and heartache whatever, You can even care and need to leave sometimes yes.

But I think hanging on to anger is not the answer anymore, I think it just keeps you into getting the wrong things again, keeps you with an it&#039;s US against THEM mentality which is not going to work in a PARTNERSHIP.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hi guys
You proberbly remember reading my earlier postadjust under 2 years ago? Abouthow I was dating a non committal bloke who I broke up with after the 1st 6 duels due to the fact he said he couldn&#039;t find the time to see me more than once ortwo we a week, I went back to him and my earlier post was about how do I cope now it was 3 months in, well, this is me nearly 2 years later, still pining over the said same bloke. It&#039;s been the most miserable time of my life!!! So desperately in love with him that I&#039;ve accepted the crumbs he gave me, I&#039;ve lost count of the times I&#039;ve cried, sobbed on my best friends shoulder yet still continued to see him. Essentially I was his FB, I&#039;m 43, he&#039;s 47, I should know better after escaping a cruel and loveless 20 year marriage. It&#039;s all come to a head now. In feb I ended things, regretted it and contacted him. We started seeing each other again in march, the latest now is that after a &#039;crisis&#039; with his daughter, he kinda phased me out. I was reduced to 1 txt a day instead of 4-4, his fav way of communicating by the way, so I decided to stop the texts. 5 torturous days later he txt, said thanks and least he knew now who he could rely on and ....... Who are in it just for themselves!! I nearly fell off my chair in shock, omg the cheek! I said loads like how dare he, hephased me out etc andSahara the hell is going on? He replied we are on hold if anything and that he &#039;cares&#039; about me. Long story short, I told him we are done and do t bother contacting me. He&#039;s a heartless cold fish, and thinking a out it now, quite narcissistic. Its time to heal now, to get back to the real shaz, the one who smiles, who is fun to be with, whose bright, funny and downright bloody gorgeous and any man would be proud to have her! No more crumbs cos this babe can and will have the whole biscuit. Yea I cry, I feel despair but I know I will have contentment one day, it&#039;s been 2 weeks now, he&#039;s out of my life and I&#039;m looking forward to a better future with someone who deserves ME. All this has taught me one thing, exactly what I don&#039;t want in a relationship! All you gorgeolairs dies out there putting up with part timers, get rid, don&#039;t leave it till all your self esteem seeps away,foodluck and lots of love xxxx ]]></description>

In feb I ended things, regretted it and contacted him. We started seeing each other again in march, the latest now is that after a &#8216;crisis&#8217; with his daughter, he kinda phased me out. I was reduced to 1 txt a day instead of 4-4, his fav way of communicating by the way, so I decided to stop the texts. 5 torturous days later he txt, said thanks and least he knew now who he could rely on and &#8230;&#8230;. Who are in it just for themselves!! I nearly fell off my chair in shock, omg the cheek! I said loads like how dare he, hephased me out etc andSahara the hell is going on? He replied we are on hold if anything and that he &#8216;cares&#8217; about me. Long story short, I told him we are done and do t bother contacting me. He&#8217;s a heartless cold fish, and thinking a out it now, quite narcissistic. Its time to heal now, to get back to the real shaz, the one who smiles, who is fun to be with, whose bright, funny and downright bloody gorgeous and any man would be proud to have her! No more crumbs cos this babe can and will have the whole biscuit. Yea I cry, I feel despair but I know I will have contentment one day, it&#8217;s been 2 weeks now, he&#8217;s out of my life and I&#8217;m looking forward to a better future with someone who deserves ME. All this has taught me one thing, exactly what I don&#8217;t want in a relationship! All you gorgeolairs dies out there putting up with part timers, get rid, don&#8217;t leave it till all your self esteem seeps away,foodluck and lots of love xxxx </p>

		<description><![CDATA[I met my guy 7 years ago, and we have been on and off since.  I was never incorporated into his life.  It was like he had his life, and then he had me and never the two shall come together.  I was kept at bay, and in the dark.  I didn&#039;t know his friends, his family, nor his co-workers.  He would always come to my house, and in the 7 years I only went to his house 3 times.  I kept asking him about the status of the relationship and what he wants and where it was going.  I either got the run-around or he just skirted the issue.  He came around when he felt like, I would ask and try to set up and arrange weekend and days trips with him, and he is usually busy or just not up to it.  I kept going back, hoping that each time would be different and that he would change.  Let me into his life, but nothing.  I have never known one person to be filled with so many excuses as to why, this or that hasn&#039;t happened.  I was so frustrated.  After a while I just started not to care anymore.  I was with him, but I wasn&#039;t with him.  I stopped factoring him in. Once I would think of him whenever I wanted to go somewhere, but because he kept disappointing me, I stopped asking.  I just started doing my own thing without even realising it.]]></description>
