I have been dating this guy since November. It seemed to be going well. We had interests in common, were both very career driven, and seemed to enjoy each other's company very much. It seemed like things were progressing along normally. Over the last two weeks or so we were getting closer. He called me every night and we talked for hours at time. We were confiding personal information and things seemed pretty nice. I enjoyed having a nice guy to spend time with and I was really starting to like him.

Last weekend he tells me--- He loves spending time with me, thinks I am really special in that I know when to comfort him and when to give him space, that intellectually we are equals and I am so "dam" cute. If those were not his exact words, they are awfully close.

So I am thinking he loves me! Nope! he thinks it's not going to work out and maybe in time we can be friends. So I told him, I didn't understand and I think he is making a mistake but if this is how he feels. I let him go.

I don't know what else a person would want from another?

Any thoughts? I really appreciate anyone that reads this, as I really need to vent! I am in my late 30s and he is in his early 40's. Neither of us have ever been married...
