Hi Anukudoodle,
Thank you for your question and welcome to EmpowHer. I am sorry to hear that your relationship has hit a wall. Have you considered that he may have moved on and maybe doesn’t want to hurt your feelings? I know this seems harsh but the reality is often to common.
Have you ever heard, “Career killed the family?” I am a testament to this theory. I have worked my whole life to achieve the greatest goals someone could achieve such as working on a PhD and finding that great paying job. In the meantime, I lost out on having children and a husband since my drive was so intense to “Be all I could be”. If he is career minded and you want to settle down, this may cause a serious issue between the two of you and you may have to make a decision to leave.
