The problem with leaving is that his personality is exactly in line with what I've been looking for for the last fifteen years! Very warm and kind, funny, responsive, reflective, super-intelligent, and yet he teases me all the time, but in a nice way. He's not totally 'david de angelo' because he also opens up to me a lot, in conversation. We share similar spiritual values as well. Also he reminds me of another ex-boyfriend from my past - I was never quite able to get over, so getting together with him was like a second chance, a miracle.
I have pretty high standards, and he meets those standards - except for his current hot/cold nature.
He always talks about how much he was in love with his ex-wife, how happy they were together, how well he looked after her. Yet, she left??? She (apparently) wanted someone less 'passionate' and 'moody' and apparently she got lonely. I wish I could talk with her!!
ALL: I have 'The Rules', and I've read 'The Power of Now'. Both excellent books. I'll look into the others, thanks so much for your suggestions.
