I walked away from possibly the love of my life. Someone who sees me for who I am and appreciates me. The complicated backstory is we’re both in the process of leaving difficult relationships (with children) and for now have been friendly. We meet once a week to have lunch and catch up on life. It’s been 9 months and we didn’t intend to fall for each other but life happened.
I feel like I’m everything to him when we spend those hours together and a lot less when we’re apart. No calls, hours between texts, even if we don’t get a chance to see each other in the week. I’ve voiced my concerns - that the emotional connection lacks when we’re apart, but he says he’s trying his best and that life gets busy.
so today I felt frustrated and told him that I’m done. That I’m not prioritised and he’s well aware of how considerate I am regarding his time. A call once a week or voice notes here and there isn’t hard. He says that he gives me all the affection when we’re in person and that I should trust how he feels about me.
I don’t believe I’m asking for much but hate that I can’t have a proper conversation with him, unless it’s scheduled or we meet in person.
AIBU?!
