Too little. Too late. Again, brutally harsh - it sounds like he is throwing you a bone. And, knows exactly how to extract the outcome HE wants. Also, it''s a pattern at this point. You have always moved in the past. Why not now with a little coxing?Date: 11/9/2006 10:52:46 AM

He decided to come on his own. He said that he wants to figure everything out and he asked me to come over Friday so we can talk, he''ll cook dinner, and then we''re gonna have a Lost marathon - we''ve been saving them up on TIVO and haven''t seen any of this season yet.Date: 11/9/2006 10:17:46 AM

Great! What happened? Did you ask him to make time for you or did he just decide that on his own? Either way, it is a good sign.
Even though NC is about the best place to live, I wouldn''t move without the guarantee of your life moving forward together. It''s what you want. I don''t blame you.
You say you are perfect for each other. If you are truly his ying to your yang, then he would have worked it through by now. It''s painful for men - BUT - they DO do it - commit to marriage.
Good luck.
Often in the LIW, I am reminded of a funny - yet poignant - scene in "When Harry Met Sally." Carrie Fisher''s character is dating a married man. She talks about him leaving his wife and them moving on together. The girls scream at her "He''s NEVER going to leave his wife." Her reaction is somewhat what I see here (the collective "here"). She says "I know. I know" and then proceeds to bascially move forward with her thoughts about them being together.
My point - you ladies deserve to be cherished. As painful as it may be for men, they will find a way to insure they will be together with the one they love if it takes marriage to do that. Their fears, doubts, reservations, timing, etc will find not supercede making a women their wife.
