Dear Tgo tiny Buddha:

I think that it is possible that ” no one measures up to him in the slightest” in your mind, is not because he is up there, but that you have placed yourself down and so, being down he seems up there, so valuable.

He told you that he is “100% sure we’re going to be best friends for life”- really, one hundred percent sure, nothing less, not even a percent, as a margin for error…? Is “The perfect guy” perfectly sure about all things, I ask? And now, your questions and my suggested answers:

“Should I try to be more physically open with him to respark what we had at the beginning?”- no, that will be humiliating, wouldn’t it…

“Should I only view him as a friend in my mind now?”- no, you are too invested in seeing him as a glorious boyfriend to win over.

“Should I be more aloof and earn back his respect and my perceived value?”- here it is, congruent with my first comment about you placing yourself down, looking up at him towering above you. Please earn back your own self respect and your own understanding of your value.

“Should I break off all contact with him?”- I don’t know. Maybe with more correspondence with you, I will know better.
