I've posted here before about how my old high school sweetheart with whom I correspond via email. It has served its purpose for me, I suppose, ...a person to lean on during times of crisis, and he's been helpful in that respect. But lately, I've realized, because he's married and "will never leave his wife" that I've been using this as a "fix" for the void in my life. While we used to email each other several times a day, recently it has become hearing from him after a few weeks, with me fretting about the lack of communication. Also, he is scheduled to be down her near me in late Sept, and says he wants to see me again. I am thinking NOT. During his last visit here, three years ago, we kissed and hugged quite a bit, and had heartfelt talks, leaving me to recover emotionall, after which, for two years there has been a flurry of constant emails, until recently. I'm thinking I need to stop this, and accept that it has been a "fix" for me that will lead to nothing, and try to build a life for myself.
I should add that I heard from him yesterday about being nearby in late Sept and seeing me. I haven't responded and don't know what to do.
