Question - (7 June 2012) 2 Answers - (Newest, 8 June 2012)
A female United Kingdom age 36-40, *ez7 writes:

hi there, please help!

me and my partner are currently on a break so he can figure things out and decide whether or not a relationship is for him, so i have moved back in with family to give him space.

The problem is i cant stand how things are. i get the feeling he will never come back, not only that but being far apart is killing me. i cant explain how terrible i feel evryday.

He has been everything i dreamt of in a partner in every way, ive never met anyone i cared for so much or was unbelievably comfortable with! i know now he may not feel exactly the same.

if things go badly i honestly dont believe i will find someone even close let alone better. how do you find something better than perfect?

A female reader, anonymous, writes (8 June 2012):

Write and mail him a heartfelt letter expressing to him why you love him and why you feel you are perfect for one another. Focus on the positive things you have together instead of the negative things you feel because you are separated.

Encourage him to share his feelings about your relationship and whether he feels similarly about what you two have when you are together as a couple. Ask him whether he sees a future with you, and regardless of his answer why he feels the way he does. Encourage him to contact you and reply.

adamskidude agony auntYou're suffering from separation anxiety. You're attached to him and now he's not there so you feel bad. Your body wants you to go back to him but obviously you haven't. People are always worse than you make them out to be, the whole blinded by love thing tends to be true. SO if things go downhill, always look on the brightside, at least you'll have a new hill to climb up.
