Thanks everyone. I think I found a way to deal with this, and I figured that he knows what we are/could be, whatever, and in the near future, I will be there, so if he wants it like I do, then he will work for it, and be there for us. If he doesn't, then it meant more to me than to him anyway, and I'll move on. I'm not settling this time around again, and if it's going to happen, it has to be REALLY right.

Right on! It will be a true test as to whether the two of you two were really meant to be.

This is 100% spot on! The true blue thing/love.

And I would lay all of my cards out on the table. I would sort every single feeling I had, and tell them. Don't make the mistake I made and hide any of those feelings out of fear. Better to gamble, than to lose the person forever.

We are supposed to meet again in a few months, possibly sooner. If we find ourselves feeling/being as we had been before, I will tell him how I feel. I think you're right. Life is too short, and I'd rather he know, than us continue the guessing games. That way at least he knows how I feel and where I'm coming from, and what level commitment I'm at.

They say, "If you love something, set it free. If it comes back to you, it was yours. If it doesn't, it never was."

You seem to have the right attitude. Best of luck. Keep us posted.

It's just the hardest to know when you've waited long enough/ too long for it to come back.

Time. Although some times even time can't help you get over someone. It might be more helpful to meet someone else that's so very different then the one your trying to get over.

We had talked about us getting on with our lives, but I can hardly fathom that someone that called me his soulmate 2 months ago could be dating someone else now, which is what I suspect. Maybe he is trying to continue his life the best way he can, and I do want him to be happy, but it still boggles my mind that he could try to move on so quickly.

So....I think I need to get him out of my system, get over it, and move on. But I don't know how. Unfort. where I am now, doesn't give me a lot of opportunities to keep busy, but I'm trying the best I can. Any advice? Thanks.
Get out a map. Could be just your country or the whole world. Get a dart and throw it and whereever it lands...go. Little trips like this are a great diversion, add to the quality and richness of your life, go alone - you will be forced to meet people whose stories also enrich your life and above all they are great confdence booster. You come back a whole new person. Mine had so many darts I had to get a new one.

As long as you hold on to the hope that there's that chance that you could still be together...your chances of moving on and getting "over it" will be less, and much more difficult.....and will no doubt leave you less receptive to another mans attentions.
