One foot out the door; One foot in the grave.

I want to spend time with him to get to know him better because if I’m in an exclusive relationship, my intentions are to make a long term commitment at some point. I don’t know where YM stands on this. I feel like he has one foot out the door. I feel like he is embarrassed to admit that he is dating me. I think the age thing now bothers him.

I am concerned about his being quick to anger and slow to burn. Also, his needing to avoid contact with me while he stews bothers me. I don’t understand why he gets angry so quickly and I especially don’t like being ignored. I need to resolve conflict right away. I truly believe that one should never let the sunset on their anger. When he does this, it makes me feel unwanted and I pull away. Last time he did this, he was contemplating the relationship. I can only assume that is what he is doing now. Should I expect this every time we have a conflict?

I’m still in a lot of pain and I’m afraid there is something really wrong with me. All of my friends act like YM should be staying with me and taking care of me. He feels that if there isn’t anything I ask for, then he shouldn’t have to be around. Is this a maturity thing?

I’m pretty sure it’s over. As soon as I start telling my family and friends about a boyfriend and I put him on speed dial, the relationship ends. I thought this one was different. I’m guessing I was wrong.
