Hmm.....you're probably right that he's keeping his distance in an order to be polite. He probably figures that there's no way you'll agree to the circumstances, and that's rational. I mean, no woman with her head screwed on right would be happy with that kind of distance, except you.

Now you have to figure out how to tell him you'd be totally happy with the way things would be between you. Maybe that "one-sided" email isn't such a bad idea? It seems to be your only option, at this point. And, it might be more comfortable for him to hear it that way, rather than face to face or on the phone. It'll give him time to think about it, and would take the pressure off of trying to come up with an instant reply.

If it comes down to where he doesn't know your feelings before he leaves, I think you should go for it, whether it be the email, or the other options. Can't hurt, right?

LOL I think that was a compliment??




I can think of pros and cons to sending another email. It would give me time to craft what I wanted to say without sounding too needy and it would be a no-pressure situation for him. On the other hand, it means he never has to respond if he doesn't want to, which could potentially leave me a wreck. I would have to be very Zen about it and let him go before I even sent the damn thing off.



That is how I'm leaning, it just leaves me so darn vulnerable. Do you have a Kitten-shaped spatula for scraping up the bits of me stuck all over this forum? KABOOM...

^Yeah, that was my strange way of giving a compliment.


And I guess it doesn't matter if you sent an email before or after he left, now that I think about it. You're much more familiar with the entire situation, so do whatever feels comfortable to you.



And yes, I do have one of those spatulas, but I already know I'm not going to have to use it.(I'm psychic) Things will work out for ya.

Well, then, thank you.



Well, I meant figuratively let him go, but literally works, too. I'll be working on a rough draft...unless another chat happens which will throw yet another curve ball into things.



lol I feel better.
