You and him started this thing in 2001and here it is 2014 <~~ that right there should be a huge screaming red flag .. Honestly the "type" of LTR you have with him is unrealistic on every level.

I think you know the right thing to do. Use logic not your heart and you will be fine.

There are so many men that live around you that are going to stick around and not go silent for months like this weird guy.

Take care
