I had been seeing my Pisces for about 5 months but we began to have uncomfortable conversations whenever I’d bring up the direction of the relationship. He had heavy obligations but I’m a firm believer in making time for what you want. He started out telling me how he needed a woman on his life and that he wanted to earn my love and trust. Recently, he sent a long message saying that I shouldn’t take his absence personal because of his current load having to take care of an ill parent and that he wanted us to be cool like we were. I understood that because his parents illness existed before we began dating but I also saw a decline in compliments and overall reciprocity towards me. I don’t want him to choose between his parents and me because it’s a no brainer here, but I struggled for inclusion these past couple of months.

He would never answer when I’d ask about his feelings but he’d always tell me that I’ve been more supportive than. I realize. Hot and cold here. I tried to be patient until he asked me to communicate with his childhood friend who had health issues as well, “you’d have great conversations” WTH, but was on the other side of the country. All of this confused and overwhelmed me so I told him that I couldn’t speak to his friend and I thought it would be best if I stopped communicating with him as well. I was respectful and never have I raised my voice to this man but I abruptly ended the conversation. I felt pawned off. I think I made the best decision but I’m still wondering what he thinks or could be feeling behind this. Should I expect his return and apology? Or is this truly a wash?

Why would he apologize though?? You can't expect to be chosen over his parents at this point. Don't be ridiculous.

He's known his ill parent his entire life, he's only known you for 5 months.
I don’t expect him to put m before his parents, his dedication to them is one of the things that attracted me to him. Because he’s been dealing with his parents illness for some time, I assumed because he started out saying he wanted a woman and a family that he understood that meant while also caring for his parents.

Why apologize? I think he was wrong for wanting to keep me holding on when he finally admitted that he didn’t have the capacity for a social life and then trying to get me to connect with his friend. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t think he meant to be hurtful but even now he can’t talk about his emotions but has said that he wants me to be “cool” with him. I think he’s just emotionally unavailable ill parents or not. I’m just curious about how a Pisces Man would feel behind all of this, as my need for space was not to hurt him but we just aren’t in the same space.

Serious, don't be discouraged. In general people DO go for what they want. Chances are though, that right now he is willing to sacrifice his want to do's for his must do's.

If he has assured you that he DOES want to be with you and things will be fine, trust him.

It took almost 4 years for my Pisces and I to make progress. We were close friends but I wanted to be with him so badly it was driving me crazy. I lost my patience and gave up. I walked away from him. At the point when his "must do's" were handled he came to me and let me know it was time for us. I was completely shocked because I really thought "I don't want a relationship right now, but I absolutely adore you." was bs and he was just stringing me along. He wasn't and I couldn't be happier than I am now.

Overall is the relationship loving and stable?
