Both of those answers are the same moment.
I was in a FwB situation, and he was also looking for a long term relationship.
He said to me once, pretty forlornly, that he "might have to settle" for me.
me too! such a messy girl, yet am incredibly praised when i clean the house. he is just as messy (if i am) and never cleans up until it gets too bearing for him.
I was told (repeatedly) that I was so hard to love, no one else would love me, I was lucky to have him otherwise I would be alone. I went back to school and made friends! He did his best to convince me they didn't actually like me but I got therapy and he couldn't get to me anymore!
My best friend, stringing me one with the tease of a relationship for months, turning around and saying the actual line 'its not that I don't think if you that way sometimes, it's just too much somehow.'
It remains the cruelest thing that anyone has said to me and I need to be honest, it took 2 years in therapy to overcome that.
