We just click. However, there is one snag. He comes from a past where he's been in fights and got in trouble with the police. He likes a drink, which is fine cuz so do I, but he changes personality. He went to watch the footie yesterday and started drinking with his mate from noon. He ended up thumping a guy and breaking his nose. He met up with me later that night, at which I was drunk and I told him he was a thug and I didn't want anything to do with him. I love him so so much. We've booked to go to Prague for Valentine's weekend and we were so looking forward to it. I've tried to speak to him on the phone but he's crying so much that I can't understand him, so we're just texting. What should I do - forgive and forget or just move on?

It sounds as if both of you need to cut down on your alcohol consumption to have any shot at your relationship surviving without at least one of you ending up in jail, or, in his case, in jail again.

I would question how much you really love him if you a ready to toss him out over a fight he got into with someone else!
