We're both only 20 years old but we care for each other very deeply and are like two puzzle pieces that kinda just mesh. Yesterday he told me that he needs some time because his head is just so clogged and that he loves me and will always love me and there are no other girls for him. He just thinks that we both are so messed up that we can't possibly be happy with anyone else unless we are happy with ourselves. He told me to call him when I am happy with myself and he will answer when he is ready. What do I do? Does this seem logical? Is he just pulling my leg? Reply to this Question Share |

A death in the family is one of the top causes of stress. He isn't pulling your leg unless his mother is alive and kicking. Maybe I would feel the same way if my mother dies.
What do I do? Give time for him to overcome his grief, sorrow and stress.
Does this seem logical? Definitely logical.
Is he just pulling my leg? If you can pull his mother's leg right now, he is pulling your leg. But if you have to exhume the body to do that, I guess he is not.
