Hi Janice, I have been dating a guy for 6 months. On our 6 month anniversary he told me that he had made reservations at our favorite restaurant and I could leave the rest to my imagination. When I arrived at his home, he told me that I was his best friend and that he didn't want a relationship. Up to that point, he had not given any indication that he felt this way. Just 2 weeks prior to this, we had gone on vacation together and had a wonderful time. At his work, his co-workers told me that he
talked about me all the time. What should I do? Dazed and Confused Dear Dazed & Confused, The first thing I want to know is this-- did he actually take you to the restaurant for your anniversary dinner? Because I'm left wondering what this guy was really planning. Like he told you that he didn't want a relationship before dinner so he wouldn't have to actually go through with having to pay for dinner. Nevertheless, it sounds like you never saw this coming and you are in a state of shock. I say that this is because you had taken it for granted that you shared the same relationship goal with your boyfriend. You took the vacation and the co-workers' talk as an indication that he wanted a future with you. But did you two ever really talk about this?
