This man and I have been friends for 7 years, we became intimately involved right after my divorce. He said he Loved me, I was up front and honest, I told him i couldn't love him the way he Loved me, because i was trying to get my heart and head straight ,and get all the feelings for my X out of my system. We broke up, tried again,didn't work, all of this within 1 yr. A year later, Now i'm ready and I do love him. Now, he is afraid of being hurt, (who isn't) again. He says we tried 2 times already, didn't work. I feel previous times shouldn' t count. He just wants to be friends, says he's to old to start over, he's 48. Maybe his mind is truly set to be a loner. We started dating though, taking it slow, more like at a crawl, no intimancy after 6 months, a hug and a kiss good bye so far. I feel like I have made more than enough effort to make it work. He says he does love me. There's no closeness, no intimatcy. We do have fun when we are together. More effort, or just break it off.
