Dear all,
I just wanted to update you as you were enough kind and willing to take time to answers to my questions.
After the last time we met, I gave him time because he told me that even if our relationship was nice, he needed more space. I came back from my holidays (a month later without communication), because I wanted to know for sure where it was going.
This month, I was able to state my needs for a relationship, what I value, what I can’t stand. I send him a message to ask if was available soon. He told me that he wanted to be honest with me and that he is dating someone else who doesn’t want an open relationship (I have never stated that I wanted something like that) and more things that justified his attitude and his cowardice.
I know that it is for the best, better to know now that he can’t be honest (I give him chances to talk to me before) and not trusted. Nevertheless, it feels painful, because I didn’t have the feeling that I gave him the sensation that he could be not respectful with me. I know that it is for the best and that there is someone for me in this world who will share the same values but it still hurts.
