Dear regijones:

He told you that being with you is too stressful for him “right now”- so you are thinking: maybe later. This is why you are on “stand by”- because he said “right now.”

He is (and has been, for a while) associating YOU with “TOO STRESSFUL”. Because you and him are long distance, how is this association going to change for him? I don’t see it. If he will be ready for a relationship, in the future, he will likely try it with a new woman, one who is not associated in his mind with “too stressful.”

I would say this relationship is over. As over as a relationship can be. So to answer your question: “Will he come back?” – my answer is Not Likely. Probably not.

I wouldn’t wait for him to change his mind and consider this relationship in the past. Can you plan your life without him?
