Signs your long-term relationship is petering out

If your partner of 8 years lives many miles away and when he comes to visit stays a week or so, but ignores you most of the time, does not wish to go out anywhere with you and now claims he can't sleep in the same bed with you because he's become allergic to the perfume you're wearing -when you don't wear any - and also responds to the question, "Are we still a couple or not?" with either, "I refuse to answer that/ I don't want you to know", also does not phone you, takes days to respond to text messages and then only brief/succinct, emails only in response and then never,ever, ever signs off with any sentiments such as miss you, love you, etc. Never sends birthday, Valentine, Christmas cards or presents, claims to be too busy to stay at Christmas, and can't afford to drive down to see you because he's skint, or when he does visit, it might be very irregular such as for a week, then nothing for 6 months, then another few days, then nothing for a couple of months, and you never know when he'll next visit nor will he commit to any kind of regular visits,...

does it means he's just not that into you anymore, his love long since faded, and you're just hanging on out of stupidity? Should you just bear the heartbreak and dump him and find a new man who actually wants to be with you, love you and cherish you?
especially if there's young kdis involved?

I've tried every measure going to keep communication alive in this long-distance relationship and pine for him when he's not here but can hardly bear the anxiety anymore of never knowing when he'll next visit. I'm utterly in love and always have been, so how can I get him to communicate with me and reassure me he still loves and wants me, depite the distance.

I've asked for an occassional "Hang in there, I know you miss me, I'll see you soon" but he refuses to give me even that tiny morsel of reassurance

I'm slowly becoming heartbroken, I feel like the most important relationship in my life is slipping into history.

Can people click to ask MNHQ to keep this please? It is most instructive, but not in the way this loon means.

So you come on here to sneakily market stuff and while doing so you make lots of lovely, caring women lose their time in trying to help you?

If that's true, then it's really fucked up.

But I don't think it's true.

You are just a sad idiot with no real life to enjoy.

thanks, Litr I am not Ok but it's nice of you to ask.

I have asked MN to keep the thread. I think it should stand as evidence this type of fuckery really happens. It usually gets deleted so people come along and just don't believe trolls really do this.

I want him to be able to look back on it one day and cringe at his own bastard behaviour. I bet he hates his own mother.

PortiaNovmerriment · 01/06/2010 21:44

Is this the same joker?

maduggar · 01/06/2010 21:44

I hope you get the help you need.

You sound deeply disturbed.

Fliight · 01/06/2010 21:45

Have a look on facebook...do you think that's him? Looks ugly and shitty enough tbh. On the google link.

maduggar · 01/06/2010 21:45

Im sorry you have been so caught up in this fliight

Cogitoergosum · 01/06/2010 21:45

this him perhaps?

How on earth can you paid £1.50 per word for posting on MN? because I'd quite like some of that action myself!

Never ever realised bastards like this were about on sites set up to help and support. Feel very stupid and shocked.

Thought I had seen a lot. Will be guarded around here from now on. I just hope these kind of stunts don't put off any Mums having REAL problems from posting anything.

Get fucked you little prick.

Fliight · 01/06/2010 21:47

Thanks, it's only words on a screen isn't it though

I probably have other stuff going on, it's just a focus for all the bad feeling and so on. This wanker isn't really having a huge impact on my actual life

DeFluffy · 01/06/2010 21:49

don't get it. I mean I get that they're a sad pathetic loser obviously, but they get £1.50 (woooooo) for every word written? Which word? The medicine one?? That makes no sense at all.

Fliight have a hug poppet. I thought your posts were very sincere and insightful, obviously dick features won't need them but many other lurkers could have been helped by your words

dignified · 01/06/2010 21:49

don't you people realise these forums are used to promote advertising within posts and glean stories for the press?

Bollocks.
Presumably youve no wife to share your evening with you woman hating tosser.

maduggar · 01/06/2010 21:49
