Hey Matthew…I don’t hate “maudlins”! Sometimes they have the kind of sensitivity and emotionality I always wanted. It usually depends on how HE views this tendency in himself. If he loathes and disrespects it in himself, doesn’t “feel like a man” because of it then there are problems. But if he is comforatable with it…not a problem. Is it really a TURN OFF if a man asks for reassurance or attention once in awhile? That seems kind of narrow minded…

Actually, I would rather have a man who is tending toward clingy than a player. At least I can know he cares and is into me and can influence him to be less so as you sited.

Yes – although he never wanted to label our involvement with one another as a “relationship” over the 12 months we were intimately in one another’s lives it escalated so 95% of his social life was with me, he called at least once a day, texted throughout the day and commented on my FB page frequently.

I ended it, a year to the day we met, putting my foot down that we were either in a relationship or we were in nothing. He cried because he had lost his “best friend, lover and confidant” … the same words my mother used when her husband (my father) of 26+ years died … personally I don’t think he has a clue.

As to whether or not he is actually out of my life … 6 months later I still get occasional texts or emails from him. And sometimes I respond … so, yes, I am complicit in that continued communication … however, we have not seen one another at all in that time. I have declined any invitations.

Maudlin … well sensitive and incredibly needy. I have told him he needs to grow up and stop behaving like an adolescent … and wished him only the best in his life as he goes forward.

Real man – yes please :-)
