A female United States age 36-40, *vh writes:

Hey guys,I moved to USA about 3 years ago. All my famile and close firneds are back in my home country.

I've been with my boyfriend in USA for almost 2 and a half years now. We've been living together for alittle bit more than 1 year. About six months ago, during winter, I got depressed and didn't have any energy to do anything. All I did was staying home. I missed my family soo much and just wanted to go home.

After the got over it my boyfriend became unhappy...from seeing me being unhappy. I said he was unhappy because he can't see me staying in USA with him forever since my family is not here. He became hapy again for about a month and a half and now he's unhappy again. I don't know what to do.

He used to tell me that he can't wait to marry me but he can't say it anymore. He says that when we go out all I do is hang around him because I'm not very comfortable talking to strangers. I never know what to say. He thinks this is very hard. He says he wants a woman that can have fun without being next to him or with him. I'm trying to talk to people when we go out but I just never have anything to say. Please help me. He is my life, my everything. He says he loves me more than anything and that's it's right to be together right now but doesn't know if it's meant to be forever. I know it is...but what do I do? Please give me some advice!

you should ask him how he feels so it would be easier to discuss your problems instead of you taking stress and keeping it in! gurd luck X p.s if you know you can do somehting for youself then you should do it without depending on him
