A male , *handy writes:

Its been about 4 months since I split up with my ex-girlfriend. We have been together for 17 years, I recently proposed to her, after a couple of days she changed her mind and three weeks later she said that she had found someone else. She has not contacted me since. Is this normal, is she on the rebound? Is she trying to block me out? I cannot understand how someone could not experience any kind of emotional feelings after all those years together? Has she been cheating on me and therfore cannot bear to contact me?

sleepysly agony auntit seems to me that you are understandably taking this hard, sounds like she was fed up of you long ago and maybe she was just waiting for someone to come along to leave. in any event shes gone pick yourself up brush yourself off and start again she obviously has. after 17 years she must have thought about the outcome of her actions.ask yourself did you treat her right? was the relationship all it could have been?did you treat her with respect?did you cheat? i dont know your answers if you did all you could do all you can do now is move on and forget her. good luck

Ponungalungb agony auntYou've been girlfriend and boyfriend for 17 years? That's amazing. I get the feeling that the reason you proposed was because you felt that you were losing her. You obviously were in no hurry to propose before, since you were together for 17 years. Maybe you took her for granted and she did, in fact, meet someone who paid attention to her needs. One can only theorize, but my guess is that after 17 years, she was ready to move on. It's probably time you did the same.

Good luck.
