I am aware, based on yesterday's feedback I am not a right person to give any advice for the matter.

Difficult one.
“Rise and shine” would work for me or anything else, doesn't matter
It is the thought that counts, "Good morning" is good too, if the caller is the kind that makes me drop the phone when I hear his voice.... Embarassed
but men are different.
I would not call. No.

If you are where he is sleeping then it is easy.
Many pleasant ways to wake him up. Halo

it's me, is the wake up call a reference to the man needing a reality check; a jolt of some kind that opens his eyes to what he otherwise is choosing not to see?

I may be waxing too theoretical here....

and you love this brilliant difficult man? you must or you wouldn't have posted for help...

can be tough, for sure. my experience has been to rely on the Almighty for intervention, as only He knows exactly how to get someone's attention and turn them around. so if you're a praying woman, on your knees is the place ot be. sorry, but it's the best I got, dear.

But that is something he has to do on his own?

New question arose: what means definitively losing? Not connected to the reality check, the wake up call. We can't make up for lost time, not now, not ever. It's gone. it's like "if you missed the train I am on..."

the answers were
''you can't understand''
and had no more

Maybe it is not relevant to understand or try to change everything but approve.
So you are at this junction in life with him.

You can't solve your past and all the decisions you have made, in a moment. Change is difficult, hurtful and ultimate, but possible.

Time is cruel and is ticking at the same phase for all of us.

Do not feel stupid, you are not stupid - love can and often does make a fool of everyone at one point or another - you seem like a kind person who does not give up easily on others - very admirable. Remember - actions speak louder than words - when this person shows you a difference rather than promising one - then that may be the time when you give one last chance - just a thought - hope it helps.

wow it's me - been there done that. Letting go is difficult but I agree with theminis - until YOU let go he'll still have power over you and will have the ability to hurt you.

Once I no longer gave a damn, nothing he did or said made any difference and I was able to look at him dispassionately. And the experience made me stronger - I no longer am suckered into a relationships with the wrong people.

You said it LornaDoone: We can give those wake up calls to ourselves. No idea what struggle is going on with It’s me… ? But let’s hope it ends rather sooner than later.

BUT

I have a question. How to avoid wrong people then? That doesn’t put you back to square one?

Any info needed & appreciated!! I dunno

You know, if you are in an event, no matter what it is and there are lots of people, and you are a jerk magnet. He recognizes you (they are masters in recognizing), approaches and since neither of you is expecting nor looking for anything – you have a verbal Ping-Pong with him, enough to trap you… here you go and what gives? Meanwhile your friends with goals and agenda find their future husbands like that... yeah, and we are happily here on the message boards Very Happy

how to avoid wrong people?

Background check!

No seriously, I realized that there are signs. He seems too good to be true then he probably is.

Any type of secretiveness or evasiveness on certain topics or questions that others would find innocuous.

If your friends have issues with him. I know that younger gals may resent you being with someone who would take time away from them and therefore, might have a tendency to trash the guy - but your more mature women who are true friends and sense somethings not right, will tell you.

Your gut. Really, deep down we often know when someone is not right for us but we push down that feeling and go in anyway for a variety of reasons.

I think too many women "settle" perhaps afraid of being alone and don't really take pause when we should.

I think that book by Steve Harvey is very insightful. I also saw the movie and the points they made were pretty good.

Anyway, I think the most telling is if YOU are mourning a breakup or a problem in a relationship and the guy doesn't feel that way or is insensitive to it then maybe he's just not the right person anyway, so why keep beating yourself up?

People who are breaking up after a long-term relationship may be feeling a mid-life crisis. Perhaps having made the wrong decision many years before (or made a decision based on the expectations of others including the sig other and/or family) and then feeling that they need to do the things that THEY had wanted to do but felt they gave up for the relationship or for what had been expected of them.

No easy answers. But I think following your gut is best.

A person who is not happy with you is not someone whose mind you're going to change. If they stay they will still be unhappy. Why would you want to be with some sour puss who blames you for his unhappiness?

And why would you want to beat yourself up trying to please that person or try to "make them happy" when in reality you have no influence in that area - not really. If a person is determined to be unhappy there really is nothing you can do.

Where this becomes really sad is couples with children. No one is going to walk away without getting hurt - but how you handle YOUR part is the only thing you can control.

So how to avoid the wrong people? Really has to go back to you really know who you are and what you want. If you start there, maybe you won't make the wrong choices in the first place and if you do, maybe you'll be aware of it much more quickly than in the past and move on sooner.

I know not the best advice for everyone - makes you sound like a quitter but really there are just some relationships that are not worth fighting for!

And all of that is JUST MY OPINION!

Pining after a man who barely knows you exist is a loser's game. If he has your contact details but doesn't contact you, then it's because he's just not that into you.

Thank you LornaDoone! I agree with everything you wrote.

Gut feeling and that some relationships just are not worth fighting for.

Tell me about it...But if it is the other way around: he doesn't let me go?

Restraining Order? Move? Sorry still in a silly mood.

But seriously, if he's getting creepy and your gut tells you he may hurt you a restraining order won't help. Depending on how serious it could be - moving would be an option.

I had a friend who worked with battered women and she once told me a that a restraining order won't stop a bullet. Bit dramatic but she made the point. That if it's that serious the only thing to do is to get as far away from the person as possible even if it means moving. I've read too many stories lately of women getting killed by ex-spouses or ex-boyfriends who didn't want to let go.

There is something inherently wrong with people who feel that only that one person can make them happy to the point that they want to hurt the person they are supposed to "love" if they break up.
