DEAR ABBY: I have been dating a guy for about six months, and we get along great. He seems to be everything I have ever wanted in a guy.
All of a sudden he said he has never wanted marriage. I told him I couldn't go on without some goal. We then broke up.
Now he's trying to come back and telling me he's STILL not interested in marriage, but he can't live without me. I'm confused and want to get away from him. The one catch is that we work, go to college and sing in choir together. How can I emotionally separate myself from him? –- CONFUSED IN OLATHE, KAN.
DEAR CONFUSED: Keep reminding yourself that the "guy" is immature, and the two of you have very different goals. If it's marriage you're interested in, he's a one-way ticket to nowhere.
