writes: Hi, I'm hoping to get some advice re my situation. 9 months ago I split up with my partner of 7 years because he walked out after a series of arguments which I think were mainly caused by him being depressed and at that time he was verbally abusive to me also. We had a lot of happy times over the years and I do really miss him. We have spoken on the phone a lot and agreed to meet up next week for lunch. He sounds quite down when I speak to him and I wondered whether this was because he misses me too.I just wonder whether the way I am feeling is really normal? It seems to be eating away at me not seeing him and the only thing that makes me feel ok is the thought of seeing him. I feel exhausted from not seeing him and I'm fed up with just talking on the phone. I have no idea how it will be when we meet next week and I am quite nervous.I have never experienced this before with previous partners, including the father of my children. I wondered whether this is me being in an emotionally weak state or just normal because he is the love of my life? Any ideas would be appreciated. I do worry about this because although at times I have felt happy and got on with life etc, when it got to about six months of not seeing him, some sort of anxiety seemed to set in and I just really wanted to see him. Has anyone else felt like this and if so any comments would be gratefully appreciated. Thanks for your help.

You may really love the person, but what is better for you is to just let it go. & years is a very long time but you can only find better. If i don't help i am sorry, but i would just like to say that whatever happens happens. You might want to try it out again before you make your final decision...... well good luck and i wish you both the best!!
