Mushgirl agony auntIf he loves you a lot more than you love him, I'd be cautious as to whether you two have a future. I went out with a guy where it just started out as 'a bit of fun', until the guy fell into a state of complete infatuated love. I on the other hand, knew that my feelings for him would never reach anything like that stage. To stay with him would have probably increased his feelings and the eventual breakup would have been even more crushing to him than it actually was. He went through a 'I'm gonna cut myself if you ditch me' (which is emotional BLACKMAIL, by the way, don't let it happen to you) stage, but it quickly passed when he realised that by saying that he'd completely pushed me away.

Obviously you do have feelings for him, but ask yourself if you're ever going to fall madly in love with him. If the answer's no, I'd say that in the long run, it'd be fairer on both of you if you left him now. Be nice, be understanding, but don't stay with him because he wants you to. Do what you feel is right, however hard it is.

Good luck and take some tissues with you if you decide that's the best option... xxx
