Question - (24 October 2010) 1 Answers - (Newest, 25 October 2010)
A female United States age 51-59, *roura writes:

my boyfriend of 5 months is going thru a divorce. Lately he he has been distant compared to the way he was the first several months. i know he is going thru a lot right now. no matter whether you wanted the big D or not , it is difficult.

he says he needs time to sort things out. he said it is not so much a matter of space as it is of speed.

i love him very much and he says he loves me too. i know i need to be patient and supportive.

Do you have any additional advice for me to help me get through this. i really want to make it to the other side, and have a stronger relationship with him.

A reader, anonymous, writes (25 October 2010):

Simply showing you care will be enough to help get your boyfriend through. Do some nice things for him, like a load of laundry or cooking him a nice meal to help elleviate some of the stress from the divorce. Ask him if you can do any task to help him, too. Beyond doing little favors like this, you really can't get too involved in his divorce.

Best of luck!
