[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I personally found though my dating that men who had history of stringing along a prior GF are the most flaky, undecided types. That lack of self awareness or goal setting would manifest in poor planning abilities in relationships, work, avoidant tendencies etc. OP might marry him and he would change his mind on having a baby. Or they would have a much desired baby and he would decide he's not meant to be dad and bail out.

Been there, done that. [/quote]

He wasn't stringing her along or changing his mind. Sounds like he was honest and transparent and they both decided it worked for them in whatever capacity that was and stayed friends. [/quote]

No man would stay so long if it wasn't a very strong relationship. And if he did, I would be seriously concerned about him separating sex and emotions and he wouldn't be a match for me[/quote]
I think this is completely wrong. Plenty of people of both sexes stay in relationships that are comfortable enough. If there’s no big reason to leave, people often just stay. OP, instead of analyzing this guy’s past, trust yourself. You’ve known him for years. You should know how he feels about you by now. This just sounds like excuses to not be close or maybe anxiety. Examine the relationship he is in now, with you and make decisions based on that, not some guesses about a prior girlfriend. And for the love of god, not from some stranger on the internet who knows nothing about anything but feels confident enough to imply what you should be doing? [/quote]
