Hi Ariane I’m worried about you too. I can totally understand the need to know where you stand and any rational man would let you know but he’s not rational. He’s being cruel. I’ve concluded my guy was cruel a few week ago giving me false hope that he still loved me. I know he told his ex wife befor...

Hi Ariane He’s reading the messages even if he’s not responding, my ever optimistic self would call that keeping in contact in his own way. He’s also keeping read receipts on which is good. My guy, ex or whatever he is, turned his off again so I never know when or if he reads my messages. I feel you...

Hi Scn and Ariane There is just no knowing with these men. They change mood without any warning and it’s impossible to predict. Early last week my man was quite chatty and happy about his court case, we were planning the nice meal and champagne I promised him ages back for a good result. By the end ...

Hi Scn How are you doing? How did Saturday go? I found the platonic thing tough. It’s hard when you have been warm and affectionate with someone to be cold and unfeeling. It’s also confusing because in any other situation just wanting to be friends is pretty much the end of a relationship but throw ...

Hope you feel a bit better today Ariane x

From experience I know all weekend drinking will be with his Eastern European friend who drinks a really scary amoun...

Hi Ariane I’m sorry you are feeling so low. I didn’t get a response to my message yet and I don’t know if he’s read it, but I’m honestly not expecting one or if he does it will be along the lines of ‘I didn’t ask you to care for me’. I hope he does give you proper closure and block you, not because ...

Hi Well I’ve been brave and I’ve sent a final message saying I don’t like the person he’s become, that I deserve respect and if he thinks the sort of lifestyle he’s pursuing makes him a good role model for his children he needs to think again. After the apologetic messages last night I got nothing m...

Hi Ariane

Sad as it is I think you do need to question if this is the depression or just who he is. I’m doing the same thing here.

Take care

Hi Ariane It’s perfectly understandable to need to know where you stand and I really hope he’s courteous enough to let you know. Although the lack of empathy that goes with depression means this might not happen quickly. I hope he gets back on his meds and starts seeing things more clearly and reali...
