Question - (11 July 2008) 2 Answers - (Newest, 11 July 2008)
A female age 41-50, anonymous writes:

This guy I love so much, he's in the Air force and on assignment some place else. I found out he's being promoted and yet although we communicate often he didn't wanted to tell me. I had to founf out by a web page!

We just emailed for this 4th of July and he didn't mentioned it, and after I have said he can count on me no matter what.

I feel bad cuz it's like after being in touch for more than a year he doesn't want to share something that is suppose to be important to him. I don't want to mention the issue to him, but I do feel bad not to be able to congrat him on his promotion.

It's like realizing I'm not important to him as I wish, even though he said he enjoys our friendship and it's so nice to me. He knows I'm here for him.

lotus mama808 agony auntIf he sais he enjoys your "friendship", well, it's that simple. You are a friend. He probably did'nt even think to tell you about it. Maybe it would be a good time to tell him that you would like to be more than friends. Let him know how you feel about him, instead of telling him that you would be there for him no matter what. Those are "friend" words. Of course you feel hurt he didnt tell you, you love him. I just don't think he knows that;)

Well I am not sure what you two's relationship is like, but its possible that this friendship is alot more meaningful to you than it is to him.

So he said he enjoys your friendship. Well people say alot of things, sometimes just to be nice. But what has he done for you, throughout your friendship, that has shown you that he is a good friend? Has he always been there for you? Does he usually confide things in you? Has he been a good listener? Can you count on him? Is he always looking for you and calling you? Are you the first person he calls when he gets back from the army?

Cause if he has never done these things and therefore has never really been a great friend to begin with, then I am not so sure why you are so surprised that he is not sharing this information with you.
