Hey,

It sounds to me like you really like this guy... But you've been unhappy for so long. I'm 25 too and have only just met someone abroad. Hence why i'm reading this site and I can't imagine what you've been through with this guy for 3.5 years but i'm already frustrated and annoyed at the guy i'm getting to know after 1 month. There's nothing wrong with giving someone you truely care about a chance but the bottom line is it has to work both ways. Imagine if you spend another 3.5 years doing what you've been doing. You could miss out on meeting someone very special. Words are so easy and don't get me wrong, the guy i'm getting to know is sooooo good with words it freaks me out. I can't help but think, why cant you sleep with out hearing my voice, what is wrong with you???... but then again men from those type of countries are much more emotional.. hmmm or do they think were stupid?? I really have no idea..

ALL I can say is please end your emotional battle to find love and happiness with someone who clearly isn't good enough for you. Things will only get worse if you were to have kids with him, jealously is a very bad trait and not worth the headache.

I wish you all the happiness in what ever you decide.
