Default Value Yourself

Number one: Are you having fun? If you are, and it sounds like you are, you have a choice to make. Is the current situation more fun than it is painful? Your guy needs time. You can give it to him byo just keep enjoying his company and giving him time to discover if you are his soul mate while you are together.

But if this is too painful for you to do, then do what you need to do for yourself. If you value yourself, you wont hang around if it is too painful. Is this relationship causing you more pain than it is pleasure? If so, you can't stay if you value yourself. Tell him that and move on. If he's that great a guy, well, he'll understand.Then, if your the one for him, he'll figure it out - eventually.

Either way, you are making a choice and are no longer at the effect of whatever he does. Being stuck in a powerless position feels horrible. The "Victim" place of not having choices never ends well. Decide what you want, based on what YOU need.

He'll respect you more in the end, and you'll feel MUCH better about yourself.
