writes:My boyfriend and get I get very close and then he retreats again. Pushing himself into work to maintain distance. Is there anything I can do to help him alleviate his fear. He was married once and he said it took him 3 years to get over it. I know he is afraid of being hurt but his closeness and then his retreats are hurting me. I don't want to bag this becasue I love him and know he loves me but this is taking its toll on other aspects of my life. Reply to this Question

You've just got to keep reassuring him and gently probing into his past life. It'll take him time, but if he really loves you, he'll open up. Be patient and just be there.
