I'd been seeing a guy on and off for 3 years, now he says he wants to commit long term

Q.   I asked him to try and put it into words how much he liked me: "Just trust me that it is a hell of a lot, we were so close for so long, how could that have not meant the world to me" Seems like there was nothing wrong.. I'd been seeing a guy o...

A.   5 September 2011: You've said it all. Should you risk the heartache? 3 years is a longtime for him to have stringed you along the sad thing is that you waited for so long. You didn't mention if you had dated anyone in that span of time. Do you really want to go thro... (read in full...)

A.   5 September 2011: Didn't know you guys do get away together. I feel she may be a complicated person (but who isn't)- Since you have spoken to her and don't see the relationship as a complete loss yet, maybe its time to take action. Stay away from her and see if i... (read in full...)

A.   4 September 2011: You're ex is messing with your head. If he wanted you he won't have waited for 4 years while you're with your current bf because you're going away he wants a 'take' home gift. He broke your heart before and he's about to do it again. You've been... (read in full...)

A.   25 August 2011: If your bf is still close by and willing to have you, I'll keep him and forget about your past. He is very cautious of what he's doing and you have to call it quits. Why bother with a guy who can't make up his mind? He's bad news. Don't bother ... (read in full...)
