On july 10..i met the man of my dreams. We fill in love very quickly and they kicked off pretty good. We both said we loved each other and we did alot 2gether. I even found out i was 6 weeks pregnant on sept 7th. We were both happy about that ( i already have a 11 yr old) and i was ready to become a mommy again. It all ended on oct 06 with a miscariage. I was so upset about everything we were both hurting alot from this tragic situation. He is an amazing guy he means the world to me and i want to spend the rest of my life with him. Ive been in love before .. but this time i feel it. I feel so good when i am around him. 2 days ago to my surprise he was acting abit weird and not normal as he would show me so much love and we would never end a conversation without the the words I LOVE YOU to eachother.We plan to have a special day in our relationship "DATE NIGHT" every thursday. Well on our what i would call out date night. I called him to ask him when he was coming over, i had just came from the hair salon looking great from him. He says that he just came from work (apporx 8:30) he was gonna go home and change his clothes and get fresh. I didnt hear from him again until approx 10pm. He says that he didnt have a ride she is gonna stay home. I ask him why?? He said that he was tired and he worked a 13 hour shift he needed to sleep. It didnt sound right to me... from the sound of his voice. So i said i undertsood that he was tired but he did not eat as yet just come over and we can grab something to eat and he can sleep over her i would pay for his cab. He then said he just want to say home and chill out for a bit.He will see me 2morrow ( which would be friday). I then asked him whats wrong??? whats going on?? he then replied he is not sure anymore. Anyways later on that night he come over and he said that he NEEDED Some SPACE.. i was in complete shock. I ask him whats wrong can we talk about it.. was it something i did he said NO its my me. He just needed sometime to sort things out. I asked him if he is breaking up with me he said no he is just needs some time for figure stuff out. I then asked him if he is still hurting from the miscariage he says YEs he was. I then understood, but i said to him i am still hurting from that and i already lost his child i dont wanna loose him now. He said he just need time to chill out. We talked for 3 hours about everything and he still insisted that he needed some time to chill out and i understand and i am willing to give him that time to chill, i also let him know that i love him very much and he means alot me and i dont want us to loose eachother. Maybe i am blind by his love and maybe he is going thru something i am not aware of. We never argued about anything never got into anything. We were soo cool. I just dont understand.. i ve been crying ever since and i am scared that the break my lead into a distance between us. We talked everyday since we mate.. and after that ordeal about his wanting space " we didnt even speak, not even a phone call.Everytime my phone rang i wish it was him, but its not. I am scared to loose him and i want things to work out. Would he come back to me or should i take it for what it is and let him go??

QuirkLady agony auntI am very sorry about your miscarriage and the emotional stress that you are under.

His need for space isn't about you. It's about him. He is going through tough emotional times too and he needs a little time to sort through his emotions and figure it all out. Have faith in him and in your relationship, and give things a little time. If you don't hear from him in a week then give him a call to see what's going on.

I am so sorry about your miscarriage. I went through that and it is devastating. There is a saying "if you love someone set them free, if they come back they are yours, if they do not, they never were. I would give him his space, he will not forget about you. If he truly loves you, absence will make the heart grow fonder, and it will strengthen your bond. In the meantime, try and do anthing that will make you feel better about yourself, walking, shopping, out to dinner etc. I think you will hear from him!

Best Of Luck!

Thank you "CaringGuy" for your reply i really do appreciate it. I am sure he is still hurting from the miscariage and i am hurting as well. But i didnt expect him to say that he needed space at all. I am just so hurt and damaged from all of this. I believe that space will turn into distance and i will be no longer be interested in him because of him hurting me. I dont want to believe that we are not gonna get back together, i want us to get back together. This is the man i want to married, i even planned on proposing to this man on new years eve ( CRAZY right?). Thats how strong my feelings are for this man. He is the man of my dreams and i am sooooooo scared of what this may do to our relationship. He knows i love him and i will always be there for him, i just want to let him kno that i am here for him. I dont need anything from a man. I am 32 yrs old woman with my own got alot of great things coming my way i have everything i need in life and i ve work hard for the thigs i have. No giving my heart to a man i truly and finally have feelings for, what happens?? i end up getting hurt.. now i am not sure if he is going thru something that i am not aware of, but i just think that his feeling and the way he ended thing was very selfish and unfare. If you said you LOVED me and i didnt DO anything to you... then WHY??. I never asked him for anything at all... i just dont understand it. No if i was the type a woman who is just full of drama etc that i will understand and except his discision. I only except it because i love him and respect him.So confused i just want him back.. i just cant stop crying over this man.

I'm sorry you miscarried. I think the emotional shock has really got to him, and he needs to have time to work out how heel feels. Don't give up on him just yet. Maybe in a week call him and say that you don't expect him to come back, but that you would like to just meet to chat in a bar or something, just to see how he feels. I don't think you should wait aroud for ever, but gie him some space, maybe call him just to see how he is and go from there.
