I’m a regular reader and contributor to your site. I am a single mother of two lovely children from a previous marriage that ended three years ago. My ex-husband was incredibly lovely, kind, and gentle, but it wasn’t enough to keep us together. I left the marriage because of his religious choices. We are still friends with no bad blood.
Fast forward, to around 2 years ago, when I met a gentleman on Facebook who was my age. We began talking, and I travelled to Ghana to meet him and spend some time with him. I returned to the United States pregnant, but the baby died. He adored me, but we began disagreeing too much, and the distance got the best of us.
Alass and I have chosen to remain friends. He was never on board, but it was my decision. We still talk as friends and like each other, but here’s the catch. I recently met an older gentleman in the United States who is both nice and gentle. He has won my heart, yet there is one aspect of him that I loathe. His communication abilities are abysmal.
He always gives me silent treatment when we dispute. He can go a month without calling me. I adore him, but I am terrified of marriage because whenever we get into it, he gives me the silent treatment and closes down. I’m not sure if I’m making a mistake with the older, sweeter guy in the state who can’t communicate with me or if I should be with the younger guy in Ghana who almost fathered a child with me.
I really need advice from your members. Love, Mother of two in desperate need
