If dating someone after four years and then they stopped the sex and only wanted friendship, would you continue to see him or her as a friend or dump them all together to move forward with your own life with the possibilty of meeting someone new?

I have no answer to that. Hello; Welcome to the site. The best of luck in your search.

If they have moved on, so should you.

The problem is he hasn't moved on and still sees me as a friend and calls everyday to check on me but states that I need someone else... Just weird because he denies any physical problem as well...

It all depends upon what you can personally handle. I had a relationship that ended in a friendship before, but it started as a friendship so the transition wasnt so hard.

I am handling it okay but kinda hard trying to find someone new if they don't understand about having a male friend who use to be someone special in my life... going on a year now of just being friends but still can't seem to find the right man out their to even want to move forward again... Life goes on though lol...thanks for the replies.

Frankly ask him wht he wants; else try to avoid him.... if he likes you, he'll fl bck.

I would move on,and fast.Sounds like he is just cheating on you with your permission.Then whe he wants you back.All will be good. Not!
Welcome!

If the relationship changes then there is likely to be a cause. The theory of cause and effect can works on relationships, too.

I am sure he was at one time too but can't ask for a better friend to know in life. Anyways, at least I am trying to move forward again after one year of waiting and now accept just his friendship and have let him know that I won't wait any longer for more than friendship...

I think he got worried tat I was wanting marriage lol but now going on year 5 of knowing one another should at least tell him that i am not... hard to figure out men sometimes lol

A body at rest tends to stay at rest is why a lot of folks move on.

Very true and I think that I am doing the same... He is different than most men and I think that is why I hang on to his friendship and know he hasn't moved forward yet and I don't think he has any desire too and has given me false hope but I am available to move forward at this time.... Thanks for all the replies... Can move on to different subject now lol...

You are welcome. You now have been denutted and able to join the rest of the fruitcakes.

Yeah lol

So how did you like your first elevator trip? I didn't even see you push the button. Its magic, huh?

It reminds me of the movie called the Landoliers. They have to be fast. I like the guy who left the blue tool out. It reminded of Blues Clues. It is nice to have a handy dandy note book to record such events for posterity or a diary works good, too.

Yup. Don't look up there. The law of being in the same place at two different times or being in two different places at the same time doesn't apply here.

I just love my edit button.

Disorientating isn't it? It was weird for me the first time I went from a chat room to a forum type setting.

Hi Gemini,

Wow that really is quite a hard one, but after much deliberation, i am thinking, friends are there for the friendship part, are they not?, so why would someone want to be just friends after that long?, we all need friends in life but, we also need that someone there to be the one to really care and hold, right?. Well that's only my opinion, hence i am here looking for the one as well i suppose. Still try the old fashioned way of meeting, but clubs and pubs are not what they were like a few years ago, so decided to give this a go. I hope your search is fruitful and to answer the question "I have moved on from the similar sort of situation myself before". I do not want to be EVERYONES friend, or big brother so still looking for miss right,

Kindest regards,

Dave.
