Have to agree with kat.. you are a grown woman... you parents are not going to spend the rest of their lives with you and have a family etc etc... there comes a point in life where you need to make your own decisions and not fear what you family is going to say... you really don't need their approval to be with this man... my advice would be to try to make amends with this guy if you truly love him and stop spending so much time worrying about what outsiders think..

Whether he wants to or not he will move on and then where will you be?

There was a saying in a movie. "I'd rather have three minutes of wonderful, than a life time of nothing".

You're parents have no right to keep you from the man you love.

There are woman out there and believe me, they are looking for a man like him.

Do what your heart tells you to do. Don't settle for a lifetime of unhappiness.

Why do the wishes of your family come before what YOU want?? Do you depend on your family to support YOU?

After reading and merging your other threads, I see that its possible this thing has been on and off for more than a few YEARS, so can you clarify this for us with more information.

It's up to you. I could respond to you a million times and you would still be the one who has to make the decision.

Happiness or misery. To me it's a no brainier.

This has been going on for two years. So did you break NC and start contacting him again?
Unless your family situation has changed, Unless you are ready to be an adult and make your own decisions about your life, leave him alone. This has been dragged through the mud for a long time.

He's not going to wait around forever. Twenty years from now or even a year from now you will be living the life you chose. With or without him. He's going to move on.

Hmm, I've read the whole saga. Wow. So you two got back together at some point? As others have said, this been going on too long. If I were you, I'd stick with no contact for good, it's just lose-lose situation.

I also see that you've changed a story a couple time about who break up with who - not like it really matters at this point, but you should own up your part and quit playing games.

He is probably done for good, at age of 48 how much more time he has to waste in a dead-end relationship, and who would blame him. Just look how much time you spent on this board crying you want him back, and when you finally got back together with him, you ended up at square one. This relationship is so messed up, I'd just leave it all alone.

Good luck.
