leanne.od agony auntShe has made her mind up by the sounds of it and you're feelings mean nothing to her when she is considering her happiness. my advice - let her get on with it. okay, you've been together for quite a while but she doesn't want to be with you anymore. you need to let her go. and be happy for her (or at least civil in the time she moves out). you won't stop her and you shouldn't have too. think more of yourself, do better and you'll be fine.

take care.

rcn agony auntWhat if you think it's a big mistake? I think she'd be leaving for sure. When getting someone to stay, it's not about what you think, it's about what they think. It's their feelings that cause them to make a change, If you want to have the possibility of her changing her mind, it's her feeling you need to tap into, not your own.
