I used to have an open relationship with an old man, He's 28 and I'm 21. He told me that he wasnt single, but I didnt mind (I think...) after that he didnt have girlfriend so... We had been dating for a while, maybe three months. On vacations, he suddenly stopped, and never never asked me a date again, my issue is... the last day we almost, almost! did it! (Make love) And after that, he didnt call... So sad, isnt it? Yestarday we argue a lot, and he said that Im obsesed, and a jealousy; Dont you think that I have adequate grounds to be angry? What will be the reason to leave someone?

in your case, i guess you have to stop. i cant explain much why but you can stop right now. i used to be in that situation but the guuy never stop seeing me. that was the good thing but the sad one is, he was still with his girlfriend all along. that's bad and no matter how happy we were, it's how much sad as i was.

When you said he was not single... was he married and you knew and allowed your relationship? I think when you went out withh him and that he knew he could not get "it" with you he stopped seeing you because you are a waste of time, and waste of money. he invested in you and you obviously are not giving in to his machismo and desires! which i think is good for you. because either way, whether you gave yourself to him or not, he is bound to leave you anyway. Im sure he did not even think of having a serious relationship with you... Be glad that it is over - stop seeing him, stop calling him, chatting with him, sending him messages even. Let him know he never got the best of you and that it is his lost for being the jerk that he is. move on... there are so many guys out there who would be giving you more than you think you can even handle. love yourself and others will greatly love you as well.

He is just 7 years older than u and u tell him old man? How come that could be possible in any grounds? He haven't crossed 30 yet.. Ok i have a question, i'm 20 and will it be good if i call a lady who is 23 as old lady? Will u accept that? Now coming to your circumstance , i think u have accepted to have a relationship with him and in the first case u should have thoroughly checked him, when he told that he didn't have a girlfriend.. The possible answer for your question would be, he might have got a new girlfriend , u should ask him the possible reasons why he is not interested in you now days.. u have all rights to be angry ..

I don't think you are in the position to get angry. But of course you have the rights to ask regarding the status of your relationship.

you're just dating... you're not even in a relationship, you can't expect him to be someone who isn't. You can't impose on him that you two should be dating a lot and talking a lot because you're not his girlfriend and he's not your boyfriend. You should know your limitations and boundary. And about making love, it's only appropriate to do that after marriage, not when you're dating.

First, first, he is that of old of a man. Imagine me got married at 21 to a 40-year old man. It's true. So to your question if you have the right to be angry, it depends your agreement. Did both of you agree that the two of you are "official (secretly) in a relationship". Oh well, I bet yes because both of you almost did it. To the reason of leaving someone, well he is not single which is a big reason to leave him, if you are referring to him.

On the first place, it should had not started. You said that from the start you know that he is not single. Meaning he is married, am I right? So it is only normal that he shouldn't have a gf. And having no gf other than you is not a reason for you to feel comfortable about him. What you are doing is wrong. It is a mistake from the start. It should have ended long ago.

Men are always tempted to extra relationship even if married, perhaps the reason behind that guy leaving you on the verge of an almost exciting event was the consequences that he may suffer after the affair. Family pressure may have changed his mind but as to the willingness to go on and have it with you, well it may happen soon if he continue's to communicate with you.

If he hasn't left you with any reason for leaving you, then you got all the reasons to get angry with him. Having known your case though, I think it's better for you to move on and leave your thoughts to pass about that guy. Your too young and deserve a good life and a good partner. I know though it isn't that easy to let go off a person who's dear to you but you just got to take a little step at a time to completely forget about the guy.
