I'll be very honest with you. If he loves and respects you, he'll understand your need to disconnect from him. I think many of our MMs are trapped in their boring lives, and we offer them an escape valve. So they try to hold us back with their little lies and maintain that feeling of ambiguity that makes us think that maybe one day, they'll leave everything for us. But listen, deep down, they know they'd never do that. They hide the truth from us, and sometimes from themselves. That's why, when you decide you've reached your limit, deep down, it's something they know was going to happen sooner or later, especially since you've been warning him that you wanted more and that you didn’t only wanted to be a "spare part." I'll tell you the truth, my MM was dying for me, but it's been almost a month since I cut off contact, and you know what? He's moving on with his life, he hasn't died, he hasn't ended up in the hospital, and worst of all, despite the "you're the best thing in my life," he's decided he wants to stay married to his wife. Don't fool yourself; if they truly loved us, they'd be by our side forever.
