Thank you guys so much. I'm at work now, and I just felt like crying so I came to check here and I feel better. Today and tonight are going to be especially hard because we were having a special date tonight. I don't know if he realizes yet that we're DONE done, not just done talking about it. But he didn't call or text or anything last night. We email every day from work, and I doubt he will today but if he doesn't I won't know how to handle it. Do I respond? Do I leave it?
It has been pointed out to me a lot that since he can't handle a little dog with a lot of energy who can sometimes become annoying, how will he ever handle babies, toddlers, or even teenagers? He has a temper which can be seen when Layla has an accident on the floor, or gets sick and throws up on the floor, or even when we're out together and another guy looks at me. I don't feel he would ever physically hurt a woman, but he is scary when he yells.
He is a good guy besides his temper and his hate of Layla. He does cute things for me to make me happy. It's not even really physical attraction with him, I'm attracted to him because I can be myself completely and not be judged when I act silly. He doesn't do drugs, he's very family-oriented, and his life isn't based on partying all the time (like every other ex). If it wasn't for the Layla thing, and him refusing to leave the city, he would be perfect.
