What does it mean if he says he is addicted to you?

I have had a short, no strings relationship with someone. I am in my last couple of years where I am probably fertile and so I am looking to settle down and he is in the opposite place in his life so we always knew it was just a bit of fun. I never took it in as anything more and neither did he, we always knew the score.

I have tried to break it off and stop seeing him and start seeing men who can give me the marriage, children and the things I want out of life but no matter how hard we both try we always, always end up back together again.

He says he is addicted to me, that he can't stay away from me and that he can't completely let go and both of us are having problems with the physical side with anyone else (we just can't do it) and I feel the same way as he does.

Does this mean we have fallen in love?

Or just good sex?

And if it is just good sex, is it better to just stop trying to fight it and enjoy it for a year or two and not think about the future or is it best to go no contact and completely block him out of my life?

It's a great thing to say which he thinks will excuse his continued contact when you'd rather move on, because you NEED to move on. He can absolve himself of all responsibility of being a decent guy while making you think there was an amazing chemical pull between you both so you'll let him away with it.

I don't know anything about this guy, but he certainly doesn't care about you, because if he did he would let you move on during these important years!
