Well, wow. I have missed CD! Mostly because I got a new job and now I actually have to work instead of play on here all day

More happy news, me and my boyfriend of 1.5 years are finally splitting. Most of the regulars here know some of the story but I have finally had enough. I should be treated better than that. I deserve someone who WANTS to be with me and not wants to waste time with me. While I am going to be jealous, sad, angry, & god knows what else I'll feel. I am happy to let him go. I vow to NEVER let this happen again. I've kept him only because I guess I hoped he would eventually come around and want to be a couple but in the past months, I've realized that things are actually only getting worse.

I already feel relieved that it's going to be over. Wish me luck tonight, 9:30PM EST begins "the talk".

Women out there --- if he can't commit after a year, it just ain't gonna happen!

ha, not so fast. Most of my friends got engaged within 2-3 years of dating. Very few got engaged within a year.

What is your definition of "commit"? If you mean be committed to the relationship then I agree with you. If you mean committed to marriage, I think a year could be a little short.

That being said, best of luck on your talk and I hope it all works out for you. It is great to take control of your life before someone else does.

I forgot how picky you CD people are! by commit I do NOT mean marriage or engagement, the man ran at the slight mention of the L word. Flowers? Being Thoughtful? DOES NOT EXIST. He figures us as a casual relationsihp that is going nowhere, no mention of sharing an apartment, sharing a life in the future, nevermind engagement. The word sorry doesn't exist in his vocabulary - only "you should have done this" everything was my fault and i had no problem admitting it, but as soon as I do, i open the invitation for him to step all over me and I'll be DAMNED to hell if I let a man do that.

Glad you're getting out of that situation. I remember your past posts and our DMs about it. There are plenty of other fish in the sea!

Sounds like commitment is the least of your worries. Good luck in a happier life without him.

I don't remember your previous posts. Was there any indication that he wasn't looking for a commitment in the beginning?
