PeeB, I would ask him what he wants, and tell him to be honest when he says it.
I would tell him that you don't want to KEEP HIM FROM what he wants, or what he thinks would make him happy. Because in all honesty, if I were in your shoes, I would want to know WHY he's acting like this. Whether or not he's feeling guilty or actually guilty of what he's being accused of.

Well I once broke a guy of drooling after other women when he was with me... and BTW I was very thin and attractive at the time! One evening we were at a fair and he spent the entire evening drooling over some sexy chick wearing next to nothing. Finally I had enough, grabbed his hand and said "Come on.. I'm going to introduce you to her." He was aghast and reminded me I didn't KNOW her. I said "Doesn't matter... I will walk up to her and say this is my boyfriend and he has been lusting over you all evening so I wanted him to meet you." He knew I would do it too so he backed down VERY quickly! Stopped his rude remarks for the rest of the evening too! Unfortunately that was all too typical behavior for him so that relationship didn't last too long!

Misti that is a %$@(% riot!!!! HAHAHHAA!!! I LOVE IT!!!!!!! I am going to do that in my life, if anyone every stares like that. It would make me feel so much better. LOLOLOL.

Im not sure where the comment that Im 18 came from, Im 29. Wish I were, though! Know I sure act like it, but thats okay! Youre as old as you feel, right?

No he wasnt upset about not going with me, he was only going because its a band I want to see. It was already clearly determined that he didnt care about going. And I didnt INFORM him he wasnt, I asked would it be ok if...

Anyway, so update. Well he is touching me, and isnt cold and distant any more. He still wont talk about how he feels, so I have NO idea what the _____ he is thinking. But we went out with some friends last night, and I think I saw him making effort not to stare... if a gorgeous girl went by, he would immediately look at me, lol.

I dont know how long this will last, I guess we will see. Im doubtful its a permanent thing... but who knows?

Maybe he just felt bad that I felt so bad? And just wasnt handling it well by ignoring me? I dont know. I certainly felt like I was being punished. I sure wish he could talk about it.

You all are amazing, I cant believe how much your support helped me these past couple of days. You really help me keep my head together, thank you for taking the time.

Well it IS a very rude thing for a guy to do, and you need to deal with it now IMO. However, guys can be pretty clueless sometimes too so perhaps your nicely confronting him about it in a kind way will do the trick! Maybe you just needed to let him know it is not going to fly!!! :)

That's it! That's what I'll do if that ever happens to me!!!!!!! What a great friggin' idea, Misti! I'll keep this one in my little black book lol

sorry about that, I thought you said the two of you were 18 :o

looks like the message did get through though. good luck with everything :)

Its okay Dragon, and thank you! :O)
