Again that's a stressful way to live.
This is your own insecurities talking here. Partners are allowed to slip up. Make mistakes. Be human. If you were being yourself from the beginning and you selected your partner well, you can be secure that you are good for her as a companion and for emotional support. If you have trust and confidence in your partner, you aren't worried about her leaving.

I'm trying to keep my thread on topic, if at all possible.
I'm done reasoning with him.

I don't treat anyone like crap, women leave for obscure reasons, violet still has not given reasons as to why she dumped her past bfs. Its the way a lot of women with options behave and its simply a stressful way to live.

They weren't good fits for me. I don't really want to go into all they whys because that's not the topic of the thread.

I agree, lets see if she pipes up again. I am just giving you a guys insight, im not some crazy person these are the same fears a lot of guys have, none of them will state it but its there and if they sense they are being played they will bail unless they think they can get sex out of you which you have indicated you are not willing to do.

I would find out exactly how many women these other guys are seeing. Do they know how many guys you are seeing or just that your "seeing other guys"

As I think more about this I agree this is not a fun game to play, unless your winning, with 7 guys you may be in the lead but if your too far in the lead then you may have guys you were interested in forfeit because they know this is going to be long and drawn out and they have a 1/7 chance.

IF they are seeing even more attractive women then they might keep seeing you unless they pick someone else. You know what, its too bad that you could not figure out a way to get all the men your seeing along with the women they are seeing and the other guys those women are seeing in to one room and get on a white board and pair up the best people for each other. Be careful so that's its an even ratio otherwise guys will bail, no guy wants a sausage fest.

Just hope that the guy that is great for you is not settling with you and up and leaves you later. Just because your not settling does not mean he is not. I would say a lot more men settle than women.

That's sick and wrong.

Lying about one's intentions & desires is one thing.

Lying about a potentially very serious disease is another thing entirely.

Disgusting !

You gotta convince him to want to marry you.

So you only want to date people who enter the relationship having exactly the same plans regarding kids & marriage. "No wonder you don't have any success". Didn't someone say that to someone else ?
