Posted by busyeyes88Yea he already gave me the green light, I wonder if I should cut contact with him? As I feel like it's wasiting the effort of getting him to admit his issue then buy a book to read?
MOVE ON... He is a typical pisces... They don't know what they want half the time...
He has told you he is not ready for a relationship so go and find a man who is... There are plenty of them out there...

Posted by KoniuchaI would normally do the same as what you just said, only if it was a new guy.Posted by PoppyseedsYes, you should.Posted by busyeyes88Yea he already gave me the green light, I wonder if I should cut contact with him?

If a guy I liked told me to see other people, I'd be gone so fast.click to expand

Posted by OceanBoy88He has never disappeared on me so far.
He definitely has commitment issues and probably will never find himself unless something drastic happens to help him receive a spiritual awakening. He sounds more along the line of wanting an open relationship and just isnt ready to claim a taken status. Not all Pisces come back to failed relationships though. I've only gone back to one to rekindle but that's a verrrry low percentage compared to the "Pisces will be back" thing I read. However I do disappear and reappear in relations with friends so that applies to me.
Posted by P-AngelP Angel may be you should double check my post? I definitely mentioned he admit his issue himself and he voluntarily bought the self help book. I didn't make him do it
What a waste of a mind.
you could actually tell yourself that you're worth more, and that you should have more ... instead, you tell yourself to try and change a man into wanting you. A man who doesn't even care.
People get what they deserve. Considering that you have been moaning in dxp for quite some time now about how unhappy you are with this person, and here you are making more excuses to be with a person who couldn't give a rats ass about you ...... that means YOU are getting back exactly what you put out.
Again ...... people actually get to them, what they deserve to have come to them, because that is what they've earned, because that is where they put their energy.
If you actually want to be respected and valued ..... then you have to put it out there, to come back.
As it is ... you just keep being a fool and expecting people to give you answers as to how fix him, so you won't feel like such a fool. That means you have no accountability for yourself, and are looking for excuses not be responsible for yourself.
I have no pity or compassion for any person who knowingly does the wrong thing for themselves ..... like you.
and btw ..... it's absolutely ridiculous that you are attempting to force him into believing he has issues, based exclusively on you not getting what you want from him. Just because he doesn't want YOU, or because he doesn't want to change for YOU - that doesn't mean he has an illness.
and I think that in this scenario, the fucked up person is YOU .... because you are the one here crying and complaining because you refuse to change yourself for your own well being.

Just saying he needs to fix this issue before he can be in a real relationship ..... Walking away is the best, unless he fixed or at least in progress of fixing his issue.
Posted by Poppyseeds
I let him know ..... if we are getting back together his issues needs to be address / in progress of fixing
After the talk we went shopping together ...... he bought some self help books

Posted by MiZLeoYour right about Pisces doesn't like to share.. his word says go date others but his actions say he is not willing to do so.. he took me to his sports game last week he dind't let go of my hand and often gave me kisses before game as he notice most guys were paying me attention.. Later in the game he noticed his one of his teammate and I were chatting and laughing. He immediately sub his teammate in the game so he sits next to me.
I don't know any Pisces who likes to share. If he is telling you to see other people he has no intention of committing to you any time soon. He is telling you everything you need to know, why are you trying to force things? All your telling this guy is that he can get away with doing this to you and your still going to be around. I know it is hard to detach yourself from a Pisces but once you do, you will feel so much better. PM me if you need to.
Posted by bellyjarI get what you mean, he is using that as his "no string attached" card. He display PDA in front of his friends so mark his territory but in reality I have no leg to stand on, as he can say I have told you I'm not ready for relationshipPosted by PoppyseedsGo away, I have used this shitty argument in the past. Go away, find an available man. He will go away first when he finds the chance to do that. And he wants to be covered by his words...
He told me he needs to be honest with me as he is not sure how long would that take him to be ready to be in a relationship. He said I can date other guys. I asked is that because he wants to date other girls. He said he wants me to be open minded, and that if someone comes along he will be open to dates, he will tell them he is not looking for relationship he will be only up for a few dates. Then he added if he is ready to be committed to anyone it will be me and not anyone else.

Posted by PoppyseedsTake him at his word. He's NOT ready for a relationship with you. Stop trying to fix something that ain't broke. You can't 'fix' him and make him choose you. 6 months is a long time, certainly long enough to decide if you want to pursue a relationship.
He told me he needs to be honest with me as he is not sure how long would that take him to be ready to be in a relationship.
Posted by PoppyseedsJust know that if you continue to see him you are sending the message that your okay with him banging other girls while he is dating you.

He purchased that self help book in order to manipulate and string you along. And it worked didn't it!

Posted by rockyroadicecreamGood read, what was confusing me is his communication is constant. he does take me to his team sports / roommate and he is not shy about PDA.

Posted by NemiliciousI wasn't expecting miracles to happen. Simply because emotions cloud your logic, all the little things he does for me makes it even harder to see the entire picture.Posted by Poppyseedsthis is exactly the thing i do not understand; why do you have to wait or expect some kind of answer or explanation?Posted by rockyroadicecreamGood read, what was confusing me is his communication is constant. he does take me to his team sports / roommate and he is not shy about PDA.

We are not physical and he pays for everything when we spend time together. He also go out of his way to pick me up and drop me off, if he is too tired to do so he would order a cab for me and pay for it.
the situation is at odds; you know it; you prolong it and expect some miracle to happen instead of giving yourself your answer and sticking to it.
in general - wtf, why are people afraid of having principles and balls and shove responsibilty on to others?

Posted by NemiliciousI'm not putting up with anything anymore, he strung me along by telling me he never stop wanting to be with me and he still has strong feelings for me. Then he bought the book. That's why I was being extra patience with me
this is where we are wrong - and self-delusional in large parts; thinking we are so fucking great we deserve something "better" or that others deserve us/our love.
from experience i can say - when two people are on the same side of the page - they will be together. there is nothing that will or can stand between them. as it is a mutual thing. both striving and wanting the same; communication will be clear about the status quo. there are no doubts. no games.
as soon as matters of the heart become unbalanced; it is the beginning of the end - all these threads we read here, including yours; it is an embarrassing prolonged bullshitting of one´s self.
so, he is as he is; if you put up with it in order to be with him; then you should not be complaining; as it is what you want.
personally however, i don´t eat or take crumbs.

Posted by woodenmeowYes they are master of come here and go away, they want you but they don't want you too close and they also put up emotional walls.
I have been dating a comittaphobe for almost 3 years. It's been a roller coaster ride. Sounds alot like what you are going through. Lots of mixed messages.
Even now we are on a break then he comes back to me.
There are times when its just platonic, then becomes more. Its frustrating.
There are books out there to help you not feel like crazy.
Posted by piscesmoon2He doens't want the official title, but the things he does for me is the same as a official BF. such as coming to fix stuff and express post stuff to me without being asked.Posted by Koniuchaagreed
He is not interested in a commitment. That part is quite obvious.

Posted by Arielle83Doormat make effort to see the man, I never have to. he makes effort to come and see me.
You're a doormat.
I hope you don't tell him he's emotionally unstable?! Are you a counsellor or something? By saying that to someone you apparantly care for, you become the contradiction.
Why the fuck would you wait around for someone you deemed below you in emotional intelligence?!
Contradicting! Maybe that's why he told you he won't say no when something better comes along.
Posted by MysteriousPresenceP Angel thinks she represents all of the PiscesPosted by P-AngelI just happen to be a non-drinker, and I am very much against drugs. My life consists of work, cycling, going to gym, photography, cooking every second night (my fiancee cooks other nights), and spending time with family.
I know, it's frustrating.
To continue to hang on to a dream is well known to Pisces ..... you just wish everyone could separate themselves.
it's a curse for us ... this seeing of actuality long before everyone else.
The Fish has to drown themselves in drug or alcohol to blur it all out .... otherwise their whole life is spent having an awareness of reality out of sync with the rest, who spend lifetimes still reacting to hello.click to expand
Posted by Arielle83Missed your other comment, no I dnd't tell him he is emotionally unstable. He quote himself on that after reading a bit over a chapter of the commitment phobe self help book that he voluntarily purchased.Posted by PoppyseedsCool so how's that cognitive dissonance going for you?Posted by Arielle83Doormat make effort to see the man, I never have to. he makes effort to come and see me.

Doormat also put out hoping to keep the man, I don't have to either 🙂
He comes because he's obviously young and your bugging his ego.
You still don't have a commitment. Hence, this thread.click to expand

Posted by The_eleventh_sign_11I've never met anyone like him to be honest, it's easier to spot a psychopath or narcissist than understanding this guy.
The piscean is manipulating the shit out of you by playing the victim, that's how they do it. Then when you fall for it, it's all your fault, don't fall for it.
Posted by MysteriousPresenceIronically the Pisces I'm dating has Aqua Venus.Posted by The_eleventh_sign_11Yet another one who's generalizing Pisces. I assume you're an Aqua, eleventh_sign? I find Aquarius too aloof, emotionless, can't commit to a relationship, and just general air heads.

He has Gemini moon, Scorpio rising and mars. 2 air placement with water. he is pretty much a water tornado haha
I thought would end up with a Pisces, Scorpio or Cancer girl, but it so happens that I'll be marrying a Capricorn lady, lol. For some reason I never thought I would marry a Cap.
Water Tornado, hehe, that's a good one.click to expand

He has only read one chapter so far and it seems to be helping him realize he is emotionally unstable and he is not ready to be in relationship. He also said he only became independent from his mom a few years ago, he thinks he needs more time to be committed.
He told me he needs to be honest with me as he is not sure how long would that take him to be ready to be in a relationship. He said I can date other guys. I asked is that because he wants to date other girls. He said he wants me to be open minded, and that if someone comes along he will be open to dates, he will tell them he is not looking for relationship he will be only up for a few dates. Then he added if he is ready to be committed to anyone it will be me and not anyone else.
Since the break up he still takes me to his sports, and takes me out to dinner date. We do PDA, hugs, kisses but we are not getting intimate.
Base on our old relationship I know he is insecure and he even said to me he never date more than one person at once, if the girl feels he is not enough and has to date someone else he will just move on from her.
Things he said then and now are really contradicting...
