We got along great,and still do , the only time he gets mad is when I cry, or keep asking the same questions. We never argued about anything, always had a great relationship. He's told me over the past few weeks that this has been going on that I have been good to him and his kids, and that he just doesn't have any answers for me. I know I need to give him the space he ask for but it's just so hard not to be able to talk to him, or see him everyday. He won't even tell me he loves me anymore, when I say it to him, he says "I know you do." That was also something, he thinks I say it too much, he said if you know you love each other you don't have to say it 50 times a day. He said sometimes he feels like I'm trying to convince myself, but thats not the case, I feel like I need to reassure him, but he doesn't see it that way. I told him the other day that I didn't want my feelings to go away for him and that was something I was afraid of and he said if you love me the way you say you do now, then you'll love me in 10 yrs. And then I start thinking, well, if he says I've been good to him, is he doing this because he don't want to hurt and is waiting on me to make the first move to end it? It's like my mind is a marry-go-round of questions, some get answers, but most don't. It's driving me crazy, I'm driving myself crazy. He also said he felt like me and the kids smothered him, mostly me. In the beginning of our relationship, we both wanted to be with each other all the time, I guess I just never got over it. He said it's not that he doesn't want to be around me or the kids he just needs some time for himself, and I understand that now, but he never really made it clear to me until now. He feels like I can't give him that time if he does come home, and I told him you're not going to know until to try it and see for yourself.
