Anyway, for a month I helped him with his resume, applying to jobs etc along with giving him emotional support, all of which he took. He still missed the ex of course and I should have paid more mind to that.Finally, being emotionally and physically drained from living my life and his, I brought us up again- considering he has multiple interviews and is getting back on his feet. He was completely taken aback! He said I agreed to being friends and for me to expect that to change was unreasonable. When I brought up how much I was there for him through all this and if he didn't realize it was because I had feelings, he said all his friends would do that for him- delusional on his part, because I sure didn't see any of those friends. So we are done. I closed the door on him when I realized that there was actually very little good in this guy. The relationship was very much about him and I sound like a doormat in this whole story, but I thought this guy was worth some extra effort, so I am going to chalk up me being there for him, in this recession relationship, as karma points. Thanks for your advice! It was spot on! Now to my next candidate   Hey BSG
