[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I have a 22 year old daughter. In your situation, I would tell her - you are the prize.  If he doesn’t recognize that and act accordingly, he is not the one for you.  He will only disrespect you as long as you let him.  You spent money and time flying to see him.  What effort is he making?  I understand if he doesn’t have much money (though at 30 he probably has some discretionary income), but did he make you breakfast today? Has he put thought into what would make this a good weekend for you?  Has he asked what you may want to do? Has he thanked you for coming to see him, and told you how much he was looking forward to it?  If he’s not doing these kinds of things - and is scrolling on his phone, playing video games and texting his ex - he is flat out disrespectful.  Even if he is just looking for something easy right now, the way he is treating you lacks basic decency.  He’s older and probably would admit that he’s just taking advantage of your naïveté, if he engaged in any self-reflection at all.  You need to emotionally and physically distance from him.  He may put in the work in a few months or he may not.  In the meantime, you won’t lose your self respect.[/quote]

Yup. All of this. If you don’t know this innately, then you need to print this out and live by it.[/quote]

I suspect OP has either had no (or very little) male attention or been treated badly by someone. So any amount of positive attention even if it’s crumbs feels good. [/quote]
