writes:My name is Aimee, and I am 20 years old. My boyfriend decided about 2 weeks ago that he wanted to break up. He took all of his stuff and went back to his parents. We had lived together for about a year. And we have been on and off during that time. I was ofcourse devistated, shocked, and mostly confused. About two days later we talked about it and decided that we were just on a "break". He said that he wants to make sure that we can live without eachother, nither of us have ever lived alone. And he feels we are too dependent on eachother. I completely agree with the decision and I think its the best. We did agree not to see other people and we still see eachother about 3 times a week. Sometimes he stays the night. Now the problem is that, everytime he leaves or says he doesnt want to hang out or talk, i get so upset that he doesnt want to talk to me or be around me. I do trust him but cant help but wonder if he does want somebody else. I try to tell myself this will help but my feelings are overtaking me. I sometimes feel like hes just doind this not to hurt me and he really doesnt even want to try. Does this break thing ever work?

 If you have been living together and he wants out ,
then it is not a good omen.
He may feel that he wants more space or he is not matured
enough or responsible enough for a deeper relationship.
Relationship should grow from strength to strength...

My advice is let him look for you. Don't look for him. Don't give him sex. Tell him no sex intercourse until u guys get back together. Let him call you don't call him. Don't worry. He's gona want u back.
