We had a talk that she is in an odd place currently (she was 150% full on with wanting to be with me early on) so she can't give her all towards me or what I deserve at this very moment and second. She is appreciative and glad for my affections, words and attention but is currently battling lingering feelings of her previous ex (broke up shortly before we spoke, a dude with whom she won't be with again as he doesn't live here) and being in a certain mood/mindset with her life.

I am so fucking ready to be with this girl. I have so much time and heart invested into her that my soul will be crushed if things die. She told me not to wait up if other opportunities come along but frankly I WANT HER and no one else. I have to actively seek out another woman due to my schedule and routines. I'm fine with how things are and I am patient and will wait till whenever she is ready. She has expressed we'd be a great couple that'd work and she finds me physically attractive to want to sleep together. She's very honest and open but waiting is tearing me apart when we had something fiery and its a slow burning ember now that needs another stroked flame to set it ablaze. I'm in hope her fleeting emotions and current stagnant mindset recedes because I'm aching. I hope things get on the right path early on in 2018, but I'm not quite sure.

I'm such a whiner.

Still in the same situation?

Honestly man, if you don't mind me throwing in my 2 cents, she sounds like trouble. That sort of behaviour implies that her romantic feelings are tied up with this other guy, whether it could actually be consummated or not. I also wouldn't trust her in a relationship if she's that reluctant to be with you due to feelings for another man - there's an imbalance there right from the start. Personally, if there's no sort of overture for Valentine's Day, I'd hop on a dating site.

Sorry if that's an unwanted or harsh viewpoint, but I figure posting in this thread kind of invites that!
