To let go or not to let go?

    Hey, I just need some advice. I have this "friend" and we've been through a lot together. Actually, we're practically made for each other. We're always talking and texting and e-mailing and stuff. Right now we're just at friend status but at one point in time we're were constantly sending e-mails to each other professing our love. lol. And I wrote poems to him everyday. But we don't see much of each other and he finally decided that we should just be friends. He once said he loved me, but now he says he isn't so sure and that he doesn't know how he feels. Is it possible to have that much pure passion and then just lose it? Is it possible to really, truly love someone, like he said he did, and then just move on? I love him, but should I just let him go?

    Wow thats weird for him to just let go, just like that. I don't think it's possible to have so much love for someone, and then suddenly just move on and let it go. Maybe he is just scared of commiement or something, so he's saying that he's not sure he loves you because he's scared. Try talking to him about it.
    best wishes,

    Thanks for the advice. Really, I think he's struggling with some other problems, but he won't tell me whats wrong.

    Umm well heres what I think... I think that maybe he really did truly love u. guys are just VERY weird when it comes to stuff like this. but keep in mind guys think logic and we thing emotional.. so ur think i love u and u love me kinda thing... but hes prob. thinking (as a friend) 'I dont wanna anything to ruin or friendship.' prob something along those lines... id prob just saty close friedns for now and talk about it, see how he feels about it.

    I suppose that if he really feels so strongly as you believe, if he loves ya, then it'll work out all on its own. (It's kind of funny that way.)

    Sucky advice right?

    Sometimes people's lives change, and they change . . maybe it was totally real, and could be again, but at the moment its not in full swing for him or something. . sorry if its not really practical advice but I think if you keep talking and being open to whatever you'll figure it out.

    Same exact thing happened to me... but yah he did move on and now he has a gf =/ im trying so hard to get over him and accept the fact that we're only gonna be friend but everytime i see him it makes it so hard. i still kind of like him but wat else can i do, he loves her now. so my advice is if u rly love him, dont let go and tell him how u feel about him moving on when he said he loves u.

    Maybe the reason he decided he only wanted to be friends is because you guys don't see each other very much. It's definitely possible that he does still love you, but maybe he couldn't handle being with someone he loves, but can't see often.

    Well actually, it was partly my fault that it ended like it did. I guess I wasn't giving him the attention he wanted. What I don't get is that the other day he said he didn't like commitment, but that's what he wanted from me. I know it sounds messed up, but he's really going through a rough time so I'm trying to understand.

    Maybe just because u didnt see each other much now so its better to be friends for both of u, its impossible to let go to someone that u really love much coz for me its really hard to let go and it takes time to forget the good memories that we'd share 2 each other.

    well,, if u both meant to be u meant to be only that is.. ! in this world theres no impossible w/ a willing heart.. so no matter how many miles away to each other if u both inlove to each other, theres an option and its both of u to have a choice to do some moves to be together! as simple as that!
