Everybody that I have spoken to recently, about how things are going between me and The Fox, has come back to me with exactly the same comment. It's been a resounding "Dump him!!! He doesn't make you happy!"

But being on my own is likely to make me just as unhappy. I think I'm unhappy because in my own mind, I now know that I AM ready for a relationship, and I want to try and go as far as I can with it, and yet he doesn't seem prepared to 'give' at all. And that just depresses me as I feel like I'm wasting my time even though we get on so well together. this just isn't going anywhere.

We DO get on really well - there is no denying that at all - but I am SO low on his list opf priorities that sometimes I think I would be surprised if I showed up on the list at all!!! If he wrote a top 10 list of factors in his life - I definitely wouldn't make an appearance.

I know that I'm worth more than that. I also know that I find it incredibly hard to let go. I have fought the battle too many times now to no avail, so what the hell am I wasting my time with? I need to get over it, swallow my proud and realise that for a while, I may well need to be on my own.

I don't want to be on my own.

Boo!
