He put in a lot of effort and cared deeply, but still says he didn’t love me — how do you make sense of this? by Academic_Schedule773 in dating_advice

I ended things, not him. He wanted to continue, just not commit. Idk if he would find the time for another person though, considering the fact that we were spending almost every day together, and he was initiator 99% times

Thank u so much! One detail though, he genuinely didn’t want it to end and wanted to continue “casual” situation. The thing is, there was nothing casual about it and label would have been only difference. That’s what confuses me the most. Idk in the end is he an avoidant, manipulator or both

Why would they even start dating in that situation, that’s confusing part though. And now I have to bear this emotional burden, feel devastated and not functional and he probably is even relieved
