And also, I have been hurt in the past by a lot of friends, I’m a really kind, generous person who rarely gets mad so I was stepped on a lot, especially when I was younger. I’ve always felt underappreciated.
Anita,
Your advice makes a lot of sense, but the one thing I’m wondering is if I should just cut him off. I made it clear in my text message that I don’t want to see him for a while. I may contact him at some point when I return from my trip, but I’m scared my feelings for him will still be too strong and I’ll get too upset. I just hate cutting people off though. Any thoughts?
Thanks again for your help!
