you act really cold toward him? that does sound like a communications problem. if you can't talk to this person there won't be a friendship. just move on.

Back him off, keep him at arm's length and force the interaction back to just professional. Otherwise, someone is going to get a broken heart, and it isn't going to be you.

It will take time.  Is there another way you can go to avoid him?  And don't worry about what he thinks.  WORRY about you getting over him.  It may or may not ever occur to him that he had YOU at one point and then gave YOU up.  LET HIM GO.

Call him and invite him over.  If he refuses or is cold toward you then you have to move on...\n\nThe fact that he is moody is already a red flag.  Do you really want to deal with an emotional roller-coaster ride with him?

The old case of "having his cake and eating it, too." When it's "convenient" for him to have you around, when he needs something from you, he pulls you back. When he's not feeling as into you, he pushes you away. He needs to make up his mind. And you need to NOT be his yo-yo. Respect yourself! You are worth it, I am sure.

First of all, you don't owe him a thing.  Secondly, do you really want to be friends with him?  Sounds to me like any friendship you might have would only make it harder for you to break things off, and your heart will just get trampled.  You know the score.  You know he's not going to settle down.  As hard as it might be, the best thing to do is ignore his calls for now until you're stronger, because most likely he will not take no for an answer, and will manipulate you and use guilt to continue to get his way.  Don't forget he has other girls to fall back on.  Best to let him go now with your pride, dignity, and heart still in tact.

You have to be patient. He probably just has cold feet, 18 is YOUNG. If you keep pushing you well chase him away for good. You want him to be sure don't you? Or do want to push him and then after a couple of kids you break up. BE PATIENT  BE PATIENT  BE PATIENT!!!!   Being with someone til death do you part is scarey and he just wants to be sure, he well be back.

Knowing that you just hung up on him, wait until tomorrow or the next day, just to calm your nerves.  Find out if y'all can meet somewhere and discuss the problem.  But if chooses to remain stubborn, do others things to take your mind off of him.  It may take some time, but it can be accomplished.  I was in a situation similar to yours.  Don't waste your time thinking about someone who doesn't respect your wishes.

I think you are being the chaser here.  You certainly have given him every indication that you are interested.  Now it's time for him to pursue you.  He certainly is exhibiting that other things distract him when it comes to you.  If he isn't making you a priority now, it can only get worse if you continue on in this relationship.  If you cool it and he asks what is up, then tell him straight up, that he doesn't seem to be overly interested so you didn't want to bother him.  If he's really intersted, this will light a fire under him.  Finally, be leary of this "I'm talking to family in Canada thing".  Maybe once, but not every time you try to call him.  My relationship warning light is flashing on that one.  Best of luck to you!

I would leave him alone; he's obviously not interested. Or if he is, he should meet me halfway. It's humiliating to keep putting yourself out there if someone doesn't respond. We have some pride, you know.

break it off.  If you don't "feel" right around him, then it would really be better to stop the relationship soon, especially if he is giving you money, as that may create some animosity later.

ask him why he says "no" everytime you want to get intimate. If he says he wants to wait, then give him some time and be patient. You can't push a man, believe me! If you really like him then respect his wishes, but first ask him why he says no. Talk things out. Maybe that should clear things up for ya.

Talk to him and tell him it's not working out.  Try to be cordial and just get it over with.  Dragging out the relationship is just going to make the break-up more difficult and painful when it finally does happen.

I was in your exact situation.  Seems like the timing is never right, there's always something. Just tell him how you feel, and that you are ready to get this ball rolling.  Don't give him an ultimatum b.c you are right that will just push him away.  But definitely stress on the fact that you aren't getting any younger.

Sadly, there really isn't alot that you can do. If he has made up his mind, all that you can do is tell him how you feel, and let him know what it is that YOU want. After that, it is really out of your hands, because you won't be able to force your wants onto him. That will only serve to push him even further away. Nobody said that love was easy, or that it would make everything work out the way you want it to. The best rule to go by is " What is meant to be, and what isn't can not be forced." If you two are meant to be together, then you can pretty well figure that so long as you make your own wants known, then you will be together. If you aren't, nothing you say or do is going to help. Let him know what your heart is telling you, and then it's up to him. Good luck!!

You have to tread carefully. If you're too pushy, he will think you're just trying to run his life, and it may push him closer to her. Maybe if you subtly bring up certain issues and let him evaluate them for himself it will have a more powerful affect of him. Most important you have to be there to support him no matter what his decision is with this young lady.
