Illithid agony auntI'm a man, and even I care more about hugs than kisses. I can't remember the last time I got a french kiss, or even a really good regular kiss, but hugs are enough to get me though. And this is coming from a totally straight male.

You're normal, hon. Hugs are love, while frenching is just passion. While there's room for passion, it must never be the foundation, and NEVER used as a show of support or love in pain.

dearkelja agony auntHe doesn't know what you need. Some of his reaction is reflexive and he truly hasn't grasped the magnitude of your loss. The only way to get this communicated to him is to explain your feelings. He will feel more connected to you when you do and you will share your expectations. You will have many more dark days that he will need to help you through so let him know.

Then talk to him and tell him about it. Yes some guys don't understand and find it complicated.

You were in an (understandably) vunerable position and it seems as though he took advantage of your state. He sounds immature, one-dimensional and quite frankly pathetic. Dump him? x
