He hasn't returned to see me since. He calls nightly, but when you were recuperating, you didn't always take the call if you were resting. That is understandable. The pain meds knocked you out. Still, if he is serious, his actions should make you feel supported, not pressured or trapped. Pay attention to what he actually does. The comment itself says a lot. If that was his big sell, then maybe you already know the answer. A relationship should feel like a partnership, not a sales pitch.
