i will try to make this short, but i have so much info. my boyfriend of 3 years have been living together, recently we started fighting more, and one night it got to a point where i told him to leave, he has also mentioned several times that he was going to leave also. after a few weeks he packed up and went to his moms. said he is going to find an apartment. he said he still loves me and wants to fix things, so were were attending couples therapy, hes been at his moms for 2 months now, we havent been seeing each other much with our work hours. I want him to move back, but he says hes not going to until hes more financially stable, he claims he was living in my house and making a life for me, all along i thought we were building a life together,
he also says until we can communicate better hes not coming back just yet. well I was thinking maybe a few months of therapy, and he would be ready, he says he hasnt found an apartment yet, but i found an email with lease agreements and utility confirmation, and one that hes asking the power company that he needs a confirmation number so he can move in. which is a 13 mo lease,he lied to me the other night while sitting in therapy, i dont understand why we cant work things out under the same roof. how can we work things out being so distant and hardly not seeing each other. this whole mess is tearing me apart, to me it sounds like he wants to start his own life get his own things and place. but he just keeps saying hes doing it and hopefully he will be ready to move back before his lease is up.
im so torn up about this i sent him a text telling him i dont want to be strung around while hes organizing his life. and that i was sorry for bringing disappointment into his life. told him this was very hard for me and he will always be a part of my heart. and that i couldnt tolerate lies. well he eventually texted back saying im the one walking out and giving up, etc and that i must have not loved him enough to work it out. we always have to do everything his way, and i think a year is a bit long to stay away. i miss him alot and i really dont know what to do. would you stick with it and hope he comes back, or just let it go since hes so anxious to move out. any guys out there that can speak for a guys view? Do i text him back? why would he want to sign such a long lease but yet says he wants to be back more then anything. does he just need time. i dont want to throw this whole relationship away, it took me a long time to find someone and being 42, i dont want to start all over again. please send any advice. thanks.
