Well, I both applaud your determination to end this relationship & understand your difficulty in doing so. It`s hard -- epecially in a situation like this -- to walk away from a relationship, no matter how bad you know it is for you.
You want to do the right thing for yourself, right? Well, try thinking ahead. Five years ahead. Yes, fast-forward your brain. It`s 2013, & you`re still scared to leave this guy for the reasons you talked about above. He`s still stringing you along, promising pretty much nothing at all. Scary thought, isn`t it?
Since I`m pretty sure you don`t want that to happen, try to leave the relationship & do whatever can take your mind off of it -- hang out with good friends, go shopping, go to the movies, work out at the gym, do volunteer work -- helping others will make you feel better about yourself, trust me.
"You have to know that you`re a good person & a good friend. What`s meant to be will end up good, & what is not, won't. Relationships are worth fighting for, but sometimes you can`t be the only one fighting. At times, people need to fight for you. If they don`t, you just move on & realize that what you gave them was more than they were willing to give you. Hopefully, people realize great things when they come around & don`t lose something real. Always fight until you can`t anymore, & then be fought for."

DO NOT TOLERATE ANYONE WHO TREATS YOU LIKE CRAP. If you have to bribe someone to pay attention to you, that's only going to last a short while. Tell yourself that you ARE WORTH MORE THAN THAT!! You just haven't found the right person yet. You are worth so much more than hanging around waiting for this guy. He's not right for you. I know that you think he is; but honey, there are so many fish in the sea...you'll find someone who really appreciates you. Hang in there. [ cookie8888's advice column | Ask cookie8888 A Question ]

I know it is hard to just walk away from someone you care about, but you need to focus on other things right now. Try hanging out with other friends, or getting more involved with school activities to meet some new friends. It will be hard at first but after a while you will go a whole day without even thinking about him!
