What should I say when I talk to him to get him to stay with me?

Question - (28 May 2009) 2 Answers - (Newest, 28 May 2009)
A female United States age 41-50, anonymous writes:

So my bf wants a break because he misses what he had when he was single.

He also says i pushed him into saying "i love you" (but he eneded up saying it after i let it go)

When i asked, he said he still has romantic feelings for me, but he wanted this break to last for the whole summer vacation because he doesnt feel as dedicated to me as he should... im not cool with that considering we've been together for 5 months and i finally started to get attached!

I really like him but it is rediculous for me to hold on to someone who cant even explain why he wants this break.

I just want to know if this seems worth holding on to or if he just doesnt want to tell me the truth. (id greatly appreciate the feedback)

I really need the honest opinions... what should i say when i talk to him to get him to stay with me? or at least comprimise with me?

Why would you want someone to stay with you that doesn't want to be there? He felt pushed into saying "I love you" and now you want to push him into staying? He misses being single so you want to push him back into a relationship? That's how you drive someone away, not how you get them to stay. It's only been 5 months and he's already feeling suffocated so your best bet is to let him go.

niki20 agony aunthun, the reason he wants it to last all summer vaca. is b/c thats when the girls just want to have fun, fwb. and he wants to party w/out actually cheating on you. so id let this guys go. he said that he misses things that he had when he was single, what exactly do you think he wants dear? maybe he just wants time, but he picked an awkward time to decide to have time. i hope you figure it out. msg anytime, if you need to talk.
