really need advice please

[sam8108]

hello all. i am in desperate need of advice. for the past 5 years i have had a long distance relationship with a man i happened to meet on a chat line one night. he is also a lot older than i am i kno,ive been called everything under the sun and then some. we startedout as friends and then became boyfriend and girlfriend. its been kinda rocky but weve gotten thru it.

i live in iowa and he lives in michigan. but for the past 5 years, i have been in a relationship with him. i can honestly say that i truely do love him but i just dont think that the feeling is the same in return. he tells me that he loves me but i feel like hes just saying that to get me to sht up or stay happy.

ive brought up coming to see him andhe always tells me to wait till later. but im tired of waiting. i dont know what to do anymore.

i feel as if ive been led on for 5 years and im about to get my heart broken in the worst way. im so attached to him that i dont want to see anyone else. i know i must sound crazy, but i know that i love him and id do anything for him. i just dont know what to do in this situation. any advice is welcome that you might have.

Wow, I'm so sorry for what you're going through right now. I can't even begin to imagine being in that type of situation. Can I ask why NOW you're suspecting something is amiss. 5 years is a long time investment to be dating someone you're not sure about their feelings in return, especially in a long distance relationship where you never met the man.
