His responses are getting pretty much non existent. I possibly have to realise and come to terms that I have lost him. Yes it hurts. The realisation of losing this perfect dynamic hurts!
I have decided to back off and leave him be. I’ve tried communicating. There is nothing more I can do. I don’t understand how I have offended him so much. i have to try and be strong.....it’s not working very well I will admit. Suppose it was just another fantasy which will never become a reality. Story of my life....never mind! Ah damn, i'm sorry. i'm going to maybe state the obvious, i do not think you have lost a "perfect dynamic." Who discards something perfect? If this is the "story of [your] life," it may be time to do it differently? Which is not to suggest that we have complete control, In any relationship with another, we are only half the equation. It's likely in most relationships that both do 'right' and 'wrong' things, but the only person we can change is ourself and/or our approach. The only person who can give you feedback about what worked and what didn't work, is the person their self. And that isn't always going to be accurate, just that persons perceptions. Relationship is fucking hard, eh? i met this guy online once. He wrote long, detailed, beautiful letters (a rare thing i've experienced with guys). His pictures were drop dead gorgeous, i could've died in his eyes. When i drove the 150 miles to meet him, the guy who answered the door was different from the one in the pictures... by about 50 pounds and 10 years, it was blatant. Don't get me wrong, i'm as visual as the next guy, but it was the lie that was blatant and my heart just sank (i brought him a box of Godiva chocolates lol). i spent an awkward, but polite evening with him and drove home the next day. He sent me a follow up email asking for honest feed back, and i gave it to him as graciously as i could. He wrote back hurling every insult he could at me, really tearing me a new one. All i actually ventured to mix in with the positive stuff was that his pictures did not look like his current self and i felt deceived. Of course, he already knew this and was in denial and he shot the messenger... a couple of times with a canon. Did i say he could write? Funny thing though, about a year later he wrote me again and apologized and thanked me for my honesty. Told me he had gone to the gym, etc.. Not sure he ever really understood that it was the deception that caused the issue. Getting honest feedback can be hard, on both ends, but maybe if your Guy felt safe, He would tell you why? Or maybe He's just an asshole, idk. But if He is, and this is a pattern, are you connecting with assholes (not in a good way) and need to change something to help avoid doing that in the future? The challenge is to find the reason/s why this is "the story of [your] life." |
