Maybe he's just not that into you!!!! That's life... there is NOTHING wrong with you or him...... you have to suck it up and move on....

    I am sorry that you are feeling so bad. It is awful when you are left not knowing why someone cuts contact with you. Even more so when that person has been a good friend of yours for a long time.

    Thoughtful people consider how their actions affect others and care about how they feel. This guy should have been honest with you and have wanted to not cause you this upset and anxiety.
    The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own, no apologies or excuses. No one to lean on, rely on or blame. The gift is yours - it is an amazing journey - and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins.

    Huh? Was this meant for me?
  • Don't worry, I think they meant it for me!

    And in answer to your question, self confidence doesn't come naturally to me, and although I agree there are plenty more fish in the sea, finding the good ones isn't easy, and I'm not prepared to latch on to the first puffer fish that'll have me. I thought this one had the potential to be my lobster and that doesn't happen very often, so yes I am pretty gutted about it.

    Thanks for all the replies anyway guys.
