Ok I've been seeing this gem on and off for about 6 years. He was always the type to play head games back when we first met I didn't understand the disappearing acts and him always testing me. We were best friends before we ever started dating, but as time went on our feelings grew he opened up to me about some of his feelings for me but not everything. He needed up moving away and not shortly after I moved as well (just a state away from each other)I became focused on school and him on work... eventually any plans we had on seeing each other again never happened and our relationship drifted in and out of the "friend-zone" for the remaining time while we both dated other people but would remain friends. Long story short for the past 6 months or so his disappearing acts stopped and he was there the way that I had always wanted him to be I was finally thinking about letting those walls down and opening myself up to him because I figured all the test were done. I could finally make plans to go see him... was I wrong he disappeared again just last month and when he came back I was hurt he wanted to talk like he never even left, but I told him I don't want to keep dealing with someone who just up and leaves me. Needless to say he left he didn't even try. I'm wondering if I should try and talk to him again or if I should let him walk away. I feel so torn I want to stand up for myself but I'm nervous he wont ever come around to understand how much I truly love him.
Gem disappearing Acts

Sorry, but Ugh. 6 years.

I mean, 6 years is a long time to put up with this.
I know started back in high school and just never stopped.


Yea, 6 years is way too long.... I'm sure he has an idea how you feel, unless he's completely oblivious. Now, by the sounds of it, him considering your feelings is an entirely different thing. I'd let him walk.
