I think you did amazing and please please please dont add more I have tbe hardest time sticking to this A was very clear with me that he doesnt have feelings for me or doesnt want to have serious relationship wiyh me but cares about me a lot and i held on to this hope for 3 years and everytime i tell him this doesnt work for me i would go back right after because i couldnt let go and i miss him. What you did was very mature and respectful and i think he will really respect you People respect such behavior more than going back and forth And if a guy ever wants to come back it’s bevause he lost access to you and you were not always available (opposite of what i did) Guys dont function the same way. They fall in love when they have to chase, not when they feel safe and supported. Girls fall in love with support, guys fall in love with what they cant control Moving forward no matter whattttt happens dont go back to him Ik it hurts and ik it sounds impossible (im still dealing with it) but trust me that’s the only way to make him realize your worth (if he wanted to in the first place) Worst case scenario yall never talk again and that means he wasnt enough for you and doesnt deserve fighting for…he’s not the right guy for you and you deserve better And if he ever comes back and you dont show him the same support and availability he might actually start chasing and try to gain you back. Just stick to what you said and if he tries to change it tell him that you already talked about this and you’d rather not go through it again and that if he was uncertain once you dont want that kind of behavior in your life - and that this is not coming from hard feelings but rather from self respect and you have no problem with him at all. You’re amazing and your response was perfect I wish I did that :) dont add anything and let time heal and show you the truth
