Search Results: the cycle of a relationship

This man and I have been talking. He has one child, a daughter, 3 years old and has a platonic relationship with the mother of his child. We met online about a 1 year ago. We recently got into something when I confronted him about him lying about his name. He told me his name was Joe Peterson instead of his actual name and lied about his friends names when we first met. During the course of this year he has been dropping hints of who he really is. For instance, he gave me his instagram that had so many ties to who he truly was now I know. After I confronted him he told me he was waiting for the right moment. He wanted to tell me in person. I'm just so tired of this. He says he wants to be in a relationship with me but he won't because he lives in Maryland while I live in Pennsylvania. He is always busy and working. Before he used to call me to fall asleep with me over the phone but now he doesn't. He barely even messages me. I'm tired of begging him to want to talk or text me. He gets distant every time he tries to get me to meet him. But since our schedules clash its hard to meet him. Im not sure what I should do. It seems like the more I express this to him he is understanding sweet excetera at first but then will be distant again. It like a cycle and so frustrating. We are NOT dating so I don't expect him to only talk to me. I have told him he is not obligated to text me or call me. I want him to want to do those things. Sometimes I think I should give it more time and wait until we can be consistent in terms of being able to drive back and forth to see eachother from where he lives and where I live. He is truly the sweetest. I think he is being genuine. He has told me everything- how he just wanted to get some when he was on the website and when he got tired of me he would just cut me off. now he has "fallen for me "He and I used to only use kik Now he has given me his snapchat, fb, instagram, number. He told me he trusts me now and wants to have a relationship.
