I love a guy....

advice

I'm in love with him. Been for a while. I think he's avoidant.

I'm not a "love half way" type. I love fully and with my being and soul. When we are together its amazing. It's like he's looking into my soul and almost painful. Together we are easy, peaceful, calm. He'll gaze at me across a crowded room, not even see that I noticed. I'll keep smiling at him and he comes back to reality with a grin. It's so endearing.

But then he pulls back. It's like I'm being led on... but I can see how he feels. It gets toxic over text with him just not responding. I'll give him a week, 10 days. But it's like he's not the same person as when we're together. I get frustrated asking him to communicate his needs... and he says he's busy with work. We are 2 weeks now and I have not reached out.

I want to love him, show him that love is a continuum, it's not conditional or contingent. But I can't love him and anyone else at the same time.

Are we not compatible? I want to be in his life but at what cost?
