I love him and rightfully I cannot spend a day without missing him so much it hurts. I cannot go a year without him. Germany might aswell be 100 thousand million miles away. I'm breaking my heart now, in order to save his later. How do I let him down gently? How do I try and get over the man I love? Reply to this Question Share |

Hah oldersister, I'd take a stab at a few months at the most @ length of relationship. I am wondering if she is already eyeing off the next in line.

If you say you love him, then you shouldn't be thinking about breaking up just because he's going away. You both should communicate and figure out when you're going to be together again and if you both truly love one another, then there is no need for a break if it's breaking both of your hearts, mutually. Good Luck! :-)

This all sounds very dramatic, why is he going to Germany, why must you break it off, have you talked to HIM about this, you can't bear 12 months without him?? It must be a very tenuous sort of love that you cant bear twelve months!
Think of all those women whose husbands, lovers, boyfriends, sons, brothers went off to fight in wars, some of them never came back but the love those left behind never died.
Anyway, what does HE think of all this, your boyfriend's opinion should play some part in your decision.
