I just didn't call him all week. He called once and asked me to do something, but I was busy. I ran into him at the coffeeshop, he looked really bad, spacey and sad and just not healthy. I went over to talk, he was obviously hurt that I'd blown him off. When I left, no hug. First time no hug. I just felt guilty, and a little scared, that I've pushed him too far away finally, he won't be there if I need him anymore.
I just don't know how to maintain the relationship at a level that's workable for me. The thing with him getting the idea I wanted to get back together and getting hurt again was the worst possible outcome of 'being friends'.
So it seems like acquaintances is the next option. Not particularly friendly acquaintances. Oh well what do I expect? I guess it's good we talk to each other at all. There are far worse breakup scenarios.
OK it's been two needy men in a row for me now. Time for a change
