dazed-confused

I am just starting a relationship with a man 11 years younger than I. At first I was holding back because of the age difference, but because of his persistence decided to give it a chance. I am now beyond the age difference because I do not feel or look like I am 37 and he has never had a problem with it. We just enjoy each other's company and feel like we could develop into a serious long term relationship. I would guess most younger men are attracted to older women because we are honest, confident and know what we don't want in a relationship.

RayKay I don't think you are being harsh. But I believe he does truly care for me and he is scared. I just don't know if he has strength enough to even WANT to overcome it and have a relationship with me. Yes I agree 2 months is moving fast, but I wasn't the only one steering the boat before we hit the iceburg. Believe it or not this posting board is some kind of therapy, please keep your comments and responses coming. Thanks!

I don't think he is playing games. He said he had not been this deep into a relationship for 7 years.

I had been seeing this great guy for 2 months, when he decides out of nowhere that he is not ready for a relationship. We spent almost everyday of those 2 months together. We always had a good time together no matter what we were doing and had great sex. Needless to say I am heart broken because it seemed as though we were on the same page. He can't explain to me why he doesn't want a relationship only the he doesn't want to be in one. I'm guessing he is afraid to need someone or depend on anyone. I have really strong feelings for him and I feel that he does for me too, he is just afraid to open up to me. He stated his life is better with me in it but yet he is "okay" with letting me walk out of his life? Will he realize in a short time that he made a mistake letting me go? I want to hold on to the idea that he will call me telling me he made a mistake and he wants to try again, but I don't want to keep torturing myself either. I want to believe in the fairy tale ending but does that kind of thing really happen to people? Dazed & Confused Life is not the amount of breaths you take, but the moments that take your breath away.
