do you think that telling a girl you need time apart and time to think and that you'll talk after the weekend..but not straight up telling her is over is not cowardly??

If he wanted to break up with me, fine, I would have been sad and that's his perogative, and I wouldn't be feeling this angry..but be a man and grow a pair! now he's gone and pissed me off instead.

His history is with bat sh*t crazy women..I'm talking mental illnesses with multiple babies dads, drugs, alcohol. you name it. I have none of those issues. I'm just a normal girl that wants a commitment. His family loves me and spoiled me rotten on xmas even though its not my holiday (I'm jewish).
There's the issue, why are you getting serious with a guy that has this history? He obviously likes drama and creates it or finds it. He's not normal (at this point) and he's not going to have a normal relationship or date someone who's normal (i.e. no drama, head on straight, etc...). I'm sure you'll find a bunch of red flags when you look back on the time you dated, now just make sure that you're on the look out for those for the next person you date, if you start to see them again...leave. He very well might want a relationship but he sounds emotionally immature so when he starts to like someone or it starts to get serious, he bails.

I've had the opposite issue.

Men dying to make a big commitment and me running for the hills.

Thank you. you're the only one that understands exactly what I'm upset about. and yes...I should have ran but he sounded like he was genuinely trying to go down a better path with someone like me. so I gave him a chance. I've told him that I've generally dated pretty good guys. He always talked about how classy I am, what a good woman I am, and how happy I made him. So his dumping me (I'm purely assuming at this point since like I've said..he hasn't told me yet) cause I broke down...makes NO sense, other than of course, what you said.

Sure, you can have them. I have no need for them.

Idk what it is about me, men who want babies and marriage have begun flocking to me.

The phenomenon is disturbing.

I may have missed it, but how long has it been since this conversation? Go with your instincts, but we don't know if this guy is actually "ghosting" or if he's just following through with his "taking time apart" thing. I wouldn't ignore calls and texts, but that doesn't necessarily mean that he's just going to ignore the OP for the rest of his life.

I know people have different views on what constitutes a long and short term relationship, but five months is still enough time to have some major feelings and, if the guy is actually ending the relationship with the slow fade, that's not right. He should know the OP well enough to know that it's not the right thing to do.
