Does He Love Me or Not?

Has anyone ever been so in love with someone and that it seems like you can’t live without them? Sometimes it seems like they care about you too and sometimes you don’t think they care at all? Have you ever had a person tell you that they don’t want to be near you and then they invite you with them everywhere? When you love them the most they don’t want you but when you are mad at them they want to be with you? I guess I’m just trying to understand this guy I love, I don’t know what to think anymore! Right now I’m going through problems with this guy and we are always fighting and treating each other bad, he says he doesn’t care about me but why would he stay with someone who he fights with all of the time if he didn’t care? Sometimes, right after an argument, when I am still so mad at him, he will invite me to go somewhere with him like nothing ever happened. Why would anybody go through all that trouble for someone they claim they don’t love? I need help because I can’t handle this and it is breaking my heart! I don’t know what to do…

The first thing you must understand in a relationship is, it’s not all about you. If you understand this then you’ll realize that everyone has different levels of everything, including intensity and commitment in a relationship. This guy may love you as much as he can love anyone, but it’s not enough as far as you’re concerned. The fact that he does one thing like saying he hates you then invites you to be with him is a sort of a relief valve for him. You’re too intense for him. He can’t match your intensity so he’s trying to be with you, but feel more comfortable and in control of the situation. But these expectations and reactions can be deal breakers in a relationship. Unless you make concessions to his personality and perhaps he tries to be more sensitive to you, your relationship is headed for failure. Try spending a good deal of time talking and airing your feelings to each other, and don’t try to change one another. Focus on some things other than your relationship. Involve yourself with girlfriends, hobbies etc and hopefully your relationship might normalize.
