nneehhaa Posted December 3, 2004 Posted December 3, 2004 I have been with my bf for 5 years. Last month he said he wanted a break...he wanted to date others... and after 3 weeks we suddenly started talking.... there was noone else...atleast noone that i know of... but while this break was there...something in me died... I suddenly realized how weak I had become...I still am ... But now I know I can live my life without him If I want to. This is my first love. I dont know what I want. I expect so much btu I never get what I expect. Yes our love as grown mature...but I believe he has not taken the steps he should to make me feel secure.. I even went into depression. At the 3rd week of breakup, I actually felt much better.. But now...these days..he wants to talk less... he doesnt communicate too much.... and then if i tell him i dont feel secure..suddenly he starts sending me love you cards and all... In the past I have neevr felt like I needed a break. I love this man to death but I am very worried about my mental health and I dont think he understands the seriousness of it. I feel like I need a break... I am actually devastated by the feeling...but I feel like I cannot compromise any more... I am tired of compromising.... what do I do.. I must confess that i have always shown that i am devoted to him..... and he will be shocked if I take the step...i think he will be... i dont even think I have the guts....
heckno Posted December 4, 2004 Posted December 4, 2004 5 years is a pretty long time. How old are you both? If it's something that you feel you can't handle, and it's making you worry about your mental health, my suggestion would be to move on and fix yourself, live your life, and do what is right for you at this point. No man is worth a mental breakdown or otherwise.

moimeme Posted December 4, 2004 Posted December 4, 2004 No need to insult people, alpha. Someone called you 'hilarious' but I'm not laughing.
