My girlfriend just broke up with me shall I wait or let her go?

Q.   My girlfriend just broke up with me 4 days ago. I didn't realize that we'll end up like this because I thought that everything is flowing smoothly. We've been together for almost 1 and half years now and she told me that she still have feeling ...

A.   11 April 2008: Wow that's hard. She was pretty clear with you though, which is good. I'd say she definitely wants to be alone. So for the time being, you may just want to leave her alone, and find new ways of spending your extra time. To be honest, I can't ... (read in full...)

A.   30 March 2008: You are pretty young. Maybe he's never done anything more serious than kissing!! I just hope you are closer to the 16 end in your age bucket. Anyway, one trick that usually works, is that you could try giving each other massages. The basic tr... (read in full...)
