Have been loving an older man and now he is meeting someone else

Question - (12 June 2009) 2 Answers - (Newest, 2 July 2009)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Hi,

He is about 17 years older; he is of another religion (not that I mind but at all, but we will face trouble if we get together). Now, I can't stop thinking about him. He likes me sooooooo much and I know it. He just keeps telling people how a wonderful person I'm, and people pass along the word (even though he never said anyting to me in the face)

He is so kind, tender, helpful, smart and decent. Also, we have A LOT in common. Sometimes, I feel his eyes are tracing me. But I'm a very shy girl and don't really know what to do to encourage him. But i'm enjoying his intrest in me.

Few days ago, he told me he met someone last month and he is in "deep love" with her and wanted me to know her. She is not our kind of people. She is quite different from us. Now, I'm keen on hiding my true feelings and acting as if I'm ok and even happy for him. But i'm not. Help.

A male reader, anonymous, writes (2 July 2009):

Either tell him how you feel NOW, so that he has the facts and knows what his decision will ultimitely cause.

Or hold it in. Let him be happy, let him go, let him love someone who isn;t you.

If you did either of these things, no one would think any less of you. On one hand you love him. On the other, happiness requires sacrifice sometimes.

Are you willing to risk casuing him pain and heartace because he dared to fall in love with someone who is not you?

Look within yourself, and choose. Tell him. Or let him live his life and just be there for him if things don't work out between him and the woman he has fallen for.
