[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why the heck are you deleting his number as if he’s some jerk who wronged you? And PPs are encouraging this? Why such a black-and-white, extreme response?? You have been with him four measly months! He may just be a guy who prefers to take things a bit slower (an equally valid need!).

You expressed your feelings, he gave you an honest response and wanted to continue to conversation and then you shut things down and deleted his number. I don’t get it.

Of course he might be sincere. He obviously wants to try to find a happy medium (which is appropriate at 4 months; you have not been dating a year+, which is a point where it’s more reasonable to break off a relationship like this). I think it’s worth a try.

Deleting his number is so extreme and makes no sense to me in this context. What exactly has he done wrong? Geez.

It's not that he's done anything wrong, but OP has determined that he can't meet her needs - and so she's trying to self-preserve, because she is tempted to go back to him but knows in her heart of hearts that it leads to heartbreak. She can either deal with the end of the relationship now or she can deal with it a year from now when he's still having to be badgered into making plans more than two days in advance and she still doesnt feel like she has an actual partner.[/quote]
