The right answer is all about what is best for YOU. If you are looking to marry, and you’re 44 (THANK YOU for telling me your age — it helps me give you the right advice!! 😀 ), I think you’d rather take that marriage quest seriously. If you’re all about the ring and the date, then spending time with him is going to distract you from YOUR goal. I know that it feels good to have the attention and know he wants to sleep with you and that he likes you, but it doesn’t serve you in the big picture, and it doesn’t bring you closer to what you want if it takes you away from finding Mr. RIght. Being lonely and wanting attention will drive you to find a man who WANTS to be with you and WANTS to give you attention for the rest of your life. Those desires for attention are not bad desires, but as an adult, you have to make sure you get them fulfilled by Mr. Right.
You are not being childish by cutting him off after he’s told you you’re not it for him. You’re being practical. Children have a tendency to do what’s right for themselves and themselves only. Because they’re children they don’t have the perspective to always know what’s right for them in the long run. You, however, are and do. Take care of yourself so you have the life you want.
I hope that helps you decide what to do. Let me know how it goes. And please join me on Facebook at this link: [url][/url]. 😀
