Some people just cannot be pleased
And I guess I fall into that category.
I am involved with a wonderful man. He is caring, considerate, helpful, passionate, and a whole slew of other great things. So why aren't I happy? Isn't this exactly what I asked for? My mom always said be careful what you ask for, you just may get it. I got it. In Spades. It's too much. Not just a little too much once in awhile. But alot too much all the time. He is so intense and so in love with me that I can't breath. It scares me. I'm not used to it and not sure I am meant for it.
I know, I have to communicate these things with him, but it's hard. If I am open and up front, his feelings get hurt. He does take it personally when I say I just need some space and time. I have had my feelings tromped on so many times that I just can't bring myself to do it to him. I know that's not my intent but I can't seem to say what I need to without taking on guilt which only makes the problem worse.
I love him, but am truly not sure where this relationship is going. I think I need to get back to a simple friendship and not such an intense relationship. How do I do that? Is it really possible?

Oh Honey, Im afraid not. Its hard to go forward then go backwards for most people when it comes to a intimate relationship.
If he can not deal with the truth and gets his feelings hurt, well, he needs to deal with that because thats HIS shit, not yours. You are doing what is best and thats being honest with your feelings and he needs to take what your saying and not be so sensitive about it.
Relationships are hard work.. thats what Im beginning to figure out. Even when their good, their still work. ;-)
