How do you get someone to realize what they have?

Question

we were together for a year but argued alot so we took a break. we are 21 and 22, so we both need time to not be stressed with alot of things in life. we talk everyday still, and go out with our same group of couple'd friends...we even end all conversations with i love you. he says i;m the one he wants to marry, and we are talking to get back together. my bday just passed and he got my gift came to my gathering, and even got a room together...my parents hate the idea of him putting me on hold.

i just wonder how do i get him to realize what he had in a RELATIONSHIP with me??

Answer 1

The only thing you can do is not to see each other until he decides what he wants from life and if that includes you then fine.

He has to realise of course that if you are not seeing each other then you are free to see other guys and its a chance he has to take if you dont want him back.

Personally I think you are making things a little too easy for him and I think your parents are right.

Give him all the time in the world to come to a decision about you that will be permanent but he has to be prepared for you to say "no thanks I am with someone whilst you were deciding if you wanted me or not I met someone that does".

Good luck and dont be a doormat, your life is going past quickly and you are still hanging around at the bus stop.

Answer 2

Some cannot and will never be able to tell the difference between a real diamond and a fake one.

Answer 3

be kind to him. remember the golden rule. if he doesn't come through, it would be his loss.

there was a boy who put me on hold that way, too.

i stuck around a bit to see his final verdict

& ended up leaving him because he didn't want to choose.

a year or two later, after i stopped talking to him, we got back together again.

these things will happen on their own, try not to force him.

you might feel pain, but just stay in the present & do not dwell in the past. life will work well that way. :)

Answer 4

How did you take a break...you were still together 24/7.

Taking a break is staying away completely..he will never know unless you leave him alone and don't answer his calls. Don't be available for him.  Of course he has it good..he can put you on hold and have his fun too. He knows you will always be there when he wants you.

Try a real break up Try REAL time apart.

He;s having his fun and dangling you like a puppet.

Answer 5

take it away and they will realize what they had in time
