I wouldn't mind being tied down with the right person, would easily give up my freedom. I'm pretty sure you would do the same if you found Ms.Jacket.
Rach, I'm sorry about the job and the guy. I can't believe I'm saying this but Glad is right. Concentrate on yourself and the rest will fall into place.
This guy is a jerk, he is not man enough to tell you its over but gives you BS story about space. How much space does he need? You are 500+ miles apart.. Cry all you want and be sad today, tomorrow pick yourself up and move on. He is not worth tears anyway.
