Thanks. My brain knows thats the right thing to do, but emotionally this one is tough for some reason. I usually can let go of someone easily if its not going right. Thats why I'm struggling feeling lost and confused.

He's driven, ambitious, funny and honest. We share the same outlook in life, especially family values, poltics, etc. He did say a lot of the back and forth was due to him not being settled personally, so it caused a lot of confusion on his part. He wasn't happy with his job, he is considering moving out of the state or county and he was travelling a lot this year for work and personal. He didnt want to lead me on and said he didnt know if something long term was possible due to these reasons. We kept in touch after he told me this and I was hoping for something to develop organically since he was being flirty. But then he said it was it was just physical for him.

Never been married, no kids but would like to build a family. I guess I know a few people that have a sucessful age gap relationship/marriage. I know I need to let go, but dont know why its hard with this one. I'm usually quick to walk away when things don't look good.

Because a while back he said he regretted not gettting together again and wanted to give things a try. He said if we fell in love, he'd stay.

I'm in my 40s and he is in his 30s. He said age isnt an issue and values matter a ton to him. Sharing the same values are important and we have the same outlook on life.

He came on strong initially wanting a relationship. Then he backed off saying he was planning on travelling extensively and likely moving out state so he didn't want to waste my time. But he did say we connected immediately and hit it off - he liked my mind and that was important to him. Then he turned hot and cold and said he didn't want to waste my time. When I asked him if he wanted to explore something further, he said it was physical attraction only.

I have been talking to a guy on and off for a few months. He came on strong, then backed off saying he is travelling a lot and is considering moving. I feel an intense connection to him even though we have only seen 3 times. Lots of deep conversation and flirting and we have the same outlook on life. Very hot and cold though. 5 months after meeting he said he will be living in Europe for a few months and met someone he'd like to date. He said that he was only physically attracted to me, even though he said he liked my mind and my values before. I know we don't know each other well and not much happened, but I'm devastated and feeling lost. I know I should just move on, but not sure why it's hard to
