The closer I get to wanting to settle down with her, the further she's pulling away!

Question - (12 October 2005) 2 Answers - (Newest, 13 October 2005)
A male , anonymous writes:

I have been dating a girl for 7 yrs now. The relationship has everything that a great relationship should have(Common interests, same value in life, great sex). Unfortunately I am vastly more experienced than her in realtionships. I was her first and now she seems to be running away as I seem to be moving forward to marriage. She has all but cut me off sexually, and seems distant and silent in conversation.

I have been cheated upon before by others(and know the hallmarks), but she keeps telling me that she hasn't any time for someone else (busy sched), and I believe her. I keep hearing the same tired "Something is Just missing in the Relationship".

Her friends keep telling her to just give up(all have only kept guys around for at the most 2-3 years). I see something special in this realtionship that I guess the 3 yr age difference affords me. Am I being played, or is it I just picked the fruit too early?

Respect her wishes. Something is not right for her, and she is ending the relationship now. Leave. Move on and find someone else. She does not owe you anything for being her companion for the past 7 years. Chalk it up to experience, and find another lady in your life. Look upon this as her loss. If she regrets her decision in the future, she can apporach you, and then you can decide if you want to try again with her. With experiences gained from dating other women, you may seem something that you missed, that will tell you she was right to stop this now.
