i have never considered your posts bossy or offensive, or judgemental, or anything else but helpful. i told him the other day that i thought he would act the way he does with any woman, because i know he's been hurt in the past, and he feels that is the way to avoid any more pain. he kind of looked down, and said that would be a good assesment, then looked me in eye and said you see right through me, don't you? at the time, i thought yes, i do and i know you are a user, but i didn't say anything.
still, i have decided that it must end, because it is truly becoming an obsession with me, and a very unhealthy one at that. i have to do this on a friendly basis, because the job situation here is not good. i know it won't be easy, i will be hurt, but i also know the emotional pain will pass.
i appreciate every comment you and the others have made. it's helped me enormously.
now, let's just see if i can really go through with my plan. it''s one thing when i'm here home alone, and quite another when i'm with him, because despite it all, i truly do like him and enjoy his company,.
