Hi Debs

I think the issue is that some men lie and lay it on thick to get what they want. If they have nothing else that interests them, they come crawling back and say pretty words. But the trick is to compare their actions to their words. This is how you know if someone is being genuine. In his case his actions are always hot and cold. Would you agree? If a pretty word is a lie and not seen as genuine, it ceases to have the same effect.

I think that you started feeling this more recently. Not wanting to be pressured by him or sucked in by his words.

That is good that you know that you deserve more. You deserve the things he promised you, but not with him. With someone else. Someone who is genuine and when you compare their words to their actions it will make your heart sing.

It might be time for you to try your luck with dating. See if you can meet someone that you are actually compatible with. How does that idea make you feel? Is there anything holding you back?

Part of it may be that you actually care about him. It is hard to just stop caring about someone.

Love and best wishes! ❤️🙏
