It's ironic that as women we are socialized to not want (or show we want) "too much" from a man we are dating (i.e. Don't make it obvious you are in love, or want to marry, etc), and I've just lost someone because I don't want enough. He wants all of me, and I don't plan to marry him but I want to keep dating. He "isn't getting any younger" (his words, late 40s) and wants to move on with someone he can spend the rest of his life with. It makes perfect sense, but still ironic. (And the breakup hurts)
