Hello, yes you are absolutely right. Although this is a woman I know he was dating in the past.
In my mind I have claimed him as mine and thats what I visualise.
This last week however I told him that I was deleting him from my social media (facebook) because too many reminders on there. He asked me if it meant I wanted to remove him from my life, and I said no I dont want to remove you from my life but Its making me sad seeing all these reminders.
Maybe I should not have reached out and done that, but I just feel I have to let go and detach right now. He said he loves me and wants to be with me, but just was not ready to have an exclusive relationship.
