I'm so sorry. I think you did the right thing though. I don't think there should be that level of disconnect. You were making him more of a priority than he was making you. ((HUGS))
His best friend does. I don't know about the other people in his life.
And semantics but he doesn't consider me his gf. He tells me he wants my babies and sees himself growing old with me, but won't call me a girlfriend. I hate this feeling.
This is a red flag. He has issues and you made the right decision. You shouldn't have to hound him to spend time with you.
I dated a guy who acted like my boyfriend in every sense of the word, but wouldn't call me his girlfriend. We dated for 8 months, and finally around 7 months he started calling me his girlfriend. Let me tell you, he had major commitment issues and I shouldn't have wasted so much time on him.
Hugs to you.
Yep! There is no reason a guy shouldn't be PROUD to call you girlfriend. He has issues. A guy I dated for 6 months wouldn't call me his gf even though we were in every sense of the word. Yeah...he just wanted t best guy friend and he never invited me to other stuff he did with his other friends (that included girls).

And you know what DOESN'T suck? You didn't just accept your spot on the back burner and sit around hoping he would come to his senses and treat you better. I think it's great that you said hey, this isn't working for me, see ya later.

I'm hugging you both. Thank you. I have my therapist appt today - and while I plan on crying a bit, I really do feel a sense of strength that I was able to say no and that I deserve more.
