Hi Anita,

I think this makes a lot of sense. I am going to wait to see if I hear from him on Monday, and go from there.

You mentioned that in the context of our short relationship, you believed he was sincere in his feelings. In my heart of hearts, I believe that too. You also wrote that I didn’t know all that I knew then as I do now. This is also true. Of everything that I have told you about this situation, do you think there is any way that the outcome could have been different than what it is now?

Like I’ve said before, with everything I know, I’m not sure things could ever work between him and I. I’m not sure I could ever trust him. However, when we were together, I would have trusted him with my life. He didn’t even look at other women, let alone speak/flirt with them. I keep asking myself now, was there anything I could have done to keep him in that mindset? Did my behaviour last time I saw him impact his decision? It just still feels so painful how he went from being so loving, to seemingly indifferent to me. That he began dating/replacing me the day after I left.

I know he was fresh out of a relationship (although he initiated the break up), I wonder if he was “rebounding” with me and that I shouldn’t have gotten caught up in the fast forwarding. I don’t know really, but every morning I wake up, wondering how this all happened, and truly missing the man of my dreams, even if it was only for such a short time. I would have done anything for him, that past version of him, and I believe he would have done anything for me. I don’t understand where he went..
