After 8 years of running away, making up reasons to run, finding faults... every indication with the exception of worrying about abuse, is true of me. I have recognized the problem, me (ugh is right) and am ready to start down the road of hopefully committing. Thank you so much for this post.

He says that I am the perfect woman for anyone but that everytime it comes to doing day to day life with someone he can't handle it. Well that time I stood my ground and told him he was out of luck, that I wasn't letting him run away and that I was standing beside him no matter how many mean things he said to me to try to make me hate him. Well we have gone another wonderful 7 months since then and things have been better than ever. Now it's the day after Christmas (which he just bought me this brand new laptop that I'm typing on for Christmas) and today out of the blue he tells me he doesn't love me anymore...that I'm a perfect woman and that he doesn't know how I put up with his crap. But that he doesn't love me anymore and that after things got seriouse is when he stopped caring about me, yet his actions say different, and that he just can't do serious relationships...he also says that I am his best friend and that we have alway had that amazing connection. Well this time as much as I love him I'm just not sure if I'm going to be able to stick through it again. He says he's leaving me for my own good, but that he doesn't want to divorce me. So in one way I want to tell him that I'm not letting him leave me for his own good...but then at the same time I don't know if I can go through the same thing in another 7 months. I love him with all my heart..and I truly believe we are supposed to be together...but I just don't know if I can keep riding this roller coaster. And I'm no so sure of his fidelity anymore.
