Met a man basically right as he separated from his wife, they have children together. I liked him but I wasn't keen on the circumstances so I denied his advances for half a year, maybe a little more. He has been separated 2.5 years now, young kids under 10y/old. 6mths after meeting, we became a couple properly. At first he was great, very invested, open to the future with me re marriage, kids, a life together. 2 years together now, he and the (ex) wife still own a house together, share divorce/bills and divorce not filled, and only sees children for maybe 15 hours a week. He would like more but ex has said no. I feel like I'm at him constantly to sort this situation out, move forward, get in a position to be able to plan a proper life together. More recently, he isn't interested in this future with me, he'll say he doesn't want; to live together, more kids with me, or to get re married. This isn't what I signed up for, and feel as if he has pulled the rug out from under me by taking these things off the table after I've already invested myself in a future with him. When I bring it up, he becomes frustrated and ends the relationship stating he doesn't want XYZ (children, marriage), but comes back days/weeks later saying he loves me and we can make it work. Then another disagreement happens and the cycle repeats where he throws in these huge NO's. I'm so confused, he says he loves me, but he doesn't appear to want a "real" relationship with me that involves any commitment or responsibility. His separation has been hard, and I understand that and have witnessed, but he pursued me and I make it clear I didn't want this. Should I let him walk away? My gut tell me this he is not ready and needs to be alone to process the life change further, but I love him so much I don't know how to let go. What should I do?
