Even tho it was painful to hear, I am glad that Gary told you the truth when you asked him to be straight with you. So many out there , guys and ladies, play games with each other instead of just being honest. I myself am dealing with a similar situation...the old "I love you, but..." I am sick and tired of that line. Thinking of investing in a battery company and giving up on men! (Just kidding, but if I didn't laugh, I'd never stop crying!)

Hang in there...looks as if you ahve a lot of friends here at Pixie's who will listen when you need to talk.
