curiousnycgirl Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 He called and I picked up, I could lie and say I didn't know it was him, but I did. I just figured best to get it over with. Well of course he SWEARS he didn't block me on yahoo IM - and he put the blame on me for no communication. I did not back down, and told him that based on the only data points I had, I had assumed that I had been dumped. Bottom line I stuck to my guns, told him I had said what I needed in a relationship, and after 4.5 years I was not prepared to not get what I need. He has a list of issues that he wants to review with me in person. I said fine, but reality is two of our friends are gravely ill at the moment, so I committed to help each of them out this weekend (thinking I was single) - so while reviewing his issues was important, I was not sure when we could meet up. On the one hand I am disappointed that I answered, on the other hand I am proud I didn't back down. So I guess we shall see. Link to post Share on other sites
Trialbyfire Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Ha...so he came back and then tried to make it all your fault for not contacting him! He needed an excuse to call you instead of manning up and just addressing the issue. So now, he's got a list. Get cracking on your list. Put in serious issues and a couple of negotiable throw aways. You know the drill for negotiations. You're in the biz! Link to post Share on other sites

nature Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 If he has a "list" and "issues" he wants to discuss with you, he is just looking for more excuses to buy time. The consummate commitment-phobe. After 4.5 yrs you know each other, good and bad. Either he wants a commitment or he doesn't. There is nothing to discuss. Don't get tangled up in his "list of issues" to discuss. Believe me...he is just buying more time, like a good commitment-phobe does. If you go discuss his list with him, you are just enabling his behaviour. The only thing he needs to say to you when he phones, is I love you and I don't want to live without you, and you are right, after 4.5 yrs, you deserve a commitment, so let's make one. Anything other than that, is BS. And in your gut, you know it too. Link to post Share on other sites
Author curiousnycgirl Posted January 23, 2009 Author Share Posted January 23, 2009 Thank you everyone - your support means a lot to me. I will not back down, and he knows he is on borrowed time. Nature - somehow I believe his list is literally a list of things holding HIM back. I said last night that if he feels they are unsurmountable, then we have our answer, and there is no reason to expose himself to me by having me go through it. Funny because at first I assumed his list would be of issues he has with me - but apparently he was introspective. We shall see, I'm not holding my breath - but after 4.5 years I can give it this one last try. Link to post Share on other sites
Geishawhelk Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 A list of issues....? "A LIST OF ISSUES" - ?! What are you, Wall-Mart? My brother was told by his GF that she had a list. She did. She'd written it all down, He said - "OK. Show me this list then....." and took it from her. With a pen, he went down crossing them all out...... "your problem..... your problem...... your problem...... smoke and mirrors..... not relevant...... smoke and mirrors...... your problem...... your problem..... your problem...... not relevant. Right, that's that taken care of. What else?" He left her with no place to go, because basically she was projecting and off-loading. Taking no responsibility for herself, but trying to make out that everything happening "behind her eyes" was my brother's fault. Think about that, when he brings out his list...... He can have a list as long as Santa's delivery schedule, but unless he's prepared to actually DO something about it, it's not worth the reading time, let alone the paper it's written on. Issues are only issues if they're dealt with. Otherwise, they're just stumbling blocks. Link to post Share on other sites

Issues are only issues if they're dealt with. Otherwise, they're just stumbling blocks. Yup, I agree! I would personally handle it as such. Lay out what you need from him. Then allow him to lay out his list of issues. Be understanding of his issues, in that he's entitled to feel the way he feels. Then state your entitlement to need what you need. If his issues conflict with your needs, then state that the relationship is non-viable with the conflicts. Stand firm and be fully prepared to walk but in a mature way. Realistically speaking, the two of you are entitled to your opinions and needs. Link to post Share on other sites
sunshinegirl Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 curious, I beg of you: don't meet with him to discuss his list. It's TOTALLY smoke and mirrors. All he wants to do is recite a litany of reasons why he can't commit to you. (Now or ever, but undoubtedly he'll spin it as "I can't commit for now"). The only thing that list is full of is bullshxt excuses. He's had 4.5 years. And if you entertain him on this, you are going to get sucked into giving him MORE TIME to get his shxt together. The only conversation you should entertain with him is one in which he says "hey, I had a mile-long list of problems I had, but you know what? I went to therapy for a year [or whatever else he needed to do to solve them] and I've worked them out. Now: will you marry me?" Link to post Share on other sites

nature Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Nature - somehow I believe his list is literally a list of things holding HIM back. Of course it is. You already know that. He's a commitment-phobe. They always have a mile long list of excuses and "serious" reasons why they can't commit right now...but oh please, oh please...just be patient....let him buy some more time...stick around and be strung along for another year while he preaches about HIS issues.....you'll wake up a year from now in the exact same place you are now. I said last night that if he feels they are unsurmountable, then we have our answer, and there is no reason to expose himself to me by having me go through it. If they are HIS issues, which you know they are, there is no reason to discuss things with him at this time. You are just so painfully fooling yourself into hoping he will overcome his list of EXCUSES, and one day be the man you hope he will be. Oh please. You are goign to get dragged along even further down this road. I know it. And you know it too. Funny because at first I assumed his list would be of issues he has with me - but apparently he was introspective. Not introspective. The commitment-phobe always has a mile long list of EXCUSES why they can't commit. And they always use the "oh, it's me" bs. Believe me, I know what I'm talking about. They come across as so deep and soulful and introspective, and troubled and blah blah blah. The reality is, they do not want to commit. Get it? We all have troubles. We all have issues. We all have problems. We could all write down a 50 page list of reasons why we shouldn't commit to someone. It's not rocket science. The bottom line is, commitment is a CHOICE. You make that choice, regardless of your problems, issues, etc. This guy does not want to make that choice. And you are buying into his "buying time' wiht you. How long are you going to do this for? How long are you goign to enable his excuses? Do not meet with him. Seriously. You are just enabling his lack of commitment. Tell this guy, we all have issues. The bottom line is you do not want to commit and take this relationship to another level, and therefore we cannot go further. I will not sit in a dead end relationship with someone who wants his cake and to eat it too. You are getting caught up in his manipulations to buy time again. Link to post Share on other sites
Author curiousnycgirl Posted January 23, 2009 Author Share Posted January 23, 2009 You are getting caught up in his manipulations to buy time again. I appreciate your input and the more I reflect on last night's call, the more convinced I become that this is not going to happen. So if I am getting caught up again - it won't be for more than a week. Of that at least i am sure. I am quite resolute at this point - I'm not going to perpetuate what we've had in the past AND at this point I am pretty freaking angry to have been reduced to an ultimatum. However I am willing to give it one last (albeit brief) try, afterall I do love him. Link to post Share on other sites

Trialbyfire Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 And therein lies regret. Regret for not listening and regret for not knowing. Not knowing is worse than knowing and walking. Don't assume. Know so you can give yourself some finality. Commitment phobia isn't something that people inflict onto the other person to deliberately hurt them. They're just incapable of giving the relationship, their all. Don't demonize if at all possible. Acknowledge, understand and act in your best interests, which would be to stand firm in your needs. It's like buying a piece of candy. You want the candy. You have 30 cents. The store-keeper wants 35 cents, whereby 2 cents is his only profit. He cannot and will not lower the price to 30 cents, to meet your needs since there's not only no profit for him, it's at a loss. A commitment phobic person is the store-keeper. They can only look out for their interests. As you're only looking out for your interests, right now. This doesn't make either one of you a bad person. Just incompatible needs.

nature Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 The only miniscule chance in h*ll of getting this guy to "change" and commit, is not to enable his excuses by listening to them. I'd tell him to take his list and shove it up his arse. That he knows what you want and expect, and if he isn't prepared for it, then to go make a list for someone else. You are doing the wrong thing if you go chit chat with this guy. He needs to feel loss. And to realize that you are not there anymore. Because right now you are still there.

Author curiousnycgirl Posted January 23, 2009 Author Share Posted January 23, 2009 He needs to feel loss. And to realize that you are not there anymore. Because right now you are still there. Wow that's a really good point. I do not believe he feels I am still there - I think he is scared. He was stunned that I had deleted him from Yahoo (because I believed he had blocked me - still do) - and is confused as to why I won't add him back. I said I'd listen, but as I said to him, I'm not willing to invest again yet. I don't intend to actually go through his entire list - I suspect we will hit issue #1 (which is likely $'s) and he will say he needs to resolve this on his own, therefore he needs more time - at which point I will say ok fine, conversation over. I'm not doing this - I'm done Link to post Share on other sites
Author curiousnycgirl Posted January 23, 2009 Author Share Posted January 23, 2009 Why even that long....?? Because it might take a week for us to actually sit down to talk. I made plans and commitments when I thought he had dumped me But - you're about to. Even if it's just for a week...... Apart from the love bit (yeh, yeh....) - ......Why? Because I've already invested (perhaps wasted) 4.5 years, I'll give the last push. If I didn't think it could work, I choose to believe I would not have stuck it out this long.

I'm doing my damndest to remain calm, and hope that will continue through our discussion. He hates when I do that - because he feels it means I am detached, and perhaps I am to some degree. I am trying very hard not to demonize him/his actions - which I will do if I allow my emotions to show through. This approach drove him nuts last night when we were on the phone - he was screaming and I was speaking, never raised my voice. I wanted to go through his list right then and there, on the spot - the only point I relented on was agreeing to meet in person. I am sad because I still believe it is over - but I am feeling far less devastated than last week when I thought he just walked away.

Trialbyfire Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 nyc, if my inability to handle my situation and hindsight, can help ease your situation in a more healthy way, I'm truly glad. You've got a double-whammy of passive-aggressiveness and commitment phobia. You're like I am, type A. This is reminiscent of my previous experience. On the otherhand, I've also gone through phases of commitment phobia, situational or otherwise, so in this, I can also relate. He has to learn to ground himself, within himself. I think there's a way to view relationships as experiences, where you know that it wasn't all horrific, sad or bad. Each experience shapes us to an extent. How much we want to look at experiences in a more negative light, is up to us. How much we allow negative experiences to shape us, is also up to us. Link to post Share on other sites
nature Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 I do truly hope this guy will take a leap of faith and jump into the "fire" with you. Commitment phobia is such a horrible thing. And in the end, it's himself he is hurting. What a terrible thing never to experience true commitment to another human being. Take the time to read this and really let it sink in. It will help you to see that this is HIS problem and HIS problem alone. [FONT=Arial][sIZE=2][FONT=Arial]Commitment phobic men are tortured souls full of FEAR.
