Dear Cupid,

My boyfriend told me today so randomly that he is going to be M.I.A for one week. He said that we can not speak or see each other during this time. He told me to trust him and that he loves me. I am so confused. I haven’t heard from him since then. I don’t know what to do.

I personally think he just wants time.. Guys want space for several reasons: to make himself more masculine again (that is proven fact!), to go back to reality (to his job or school or whatever) and maybe to go see his friends now that he knows he has you. But, whatever you do.. make sure you state your feelings in person. Best of luck :)

well that's really strange and unfair of him. did you not ask him what he meant, or was he not willing to explain any further what the heck was going on? i just find it odd to believe that someone just says that they're going to be MIA and that's the end of the conversation. anyway, it could mean that he's just wanting some alone time. have you guys spent a lot of time together recently, or did your relationship come on really fast/strong? maybe he just needs a second to regroup himself. or maybe he's going through a tough time with something else in his life, and wants a week to himself to cope. or, worst case scenario, he's having some doubts about you guys and needs to figure them out. good luck!

bonym agony auntWell, I do think its a bit strange, but I do agree with what Wendyg has written. Maybe he isnt ready for a serious relationship yet and he needed some kind of excuse to cool it for a while. If you leave it for a little while longer and see how the situation works out, maybe he just needs some time alone, but I do hope he gets in contact. Good luck. xXx

Wendyg agony auntNot sure on this, sounds a bit odd... Was there somewhere he had to go but couldnt tell you ? How old are you ? Had he been acting strange before this.. Did you try to contact him ? Maybe he wasnt ready for the two of you to be serious so needed time out to see how he felt ? Has he been seeing somebody else ? Its a bit of a stange thing to do, maybe try contacting him, see if he does contact you after a week then ask him what he was doing.. maybe he went on holiday ? not really sure how to proceed on it, see if he does contact you after a week and ask him what was so important that he couldnt be in contact with you for a week.. and take it from there. Sorry i cant be much more help but you could always try his friends or family and see if they know whats up, but maybe wait the week and see how things are. He might explain after what went on and you do have a right to know why he behaved oddly but he may have had to do something and it was easier to do and then tell you after ? See how things go and i hope he gets in contact soon.

Take care x
