A male United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Please help me, i'm in love with this very special girl. Only problem is she got out of a long term relationship about 6 months back that destroyed her, she is so scared of being hurt like she was again. This has caused her to be very scared of getting into a relationship of any sort with anyone. I have known i loved her, because after 4 years of trying to get over her, i still find myself to be totally captivated by her. Now she knows how i feel, and she also likes me, i recently told her i loved her, and i really need help in convincing her that i wont be like her ex, i wouldnt be able to bring myself to hurt her like he did. She is just so scared of commiting herself.

Please help me, and please dont tell me to just get over her, i have tried and failed many times, and she is worth everything.

CupidLover agony auntwow...your question totally had me thinking you were someone i know!!

I'm going through the same exact thing,except i'm the girl that is terrified of a serious relationship and the guy feels the same way like you do...he cant seem to get over me,and i'm just too afraid because i was in a 3 and a half year relationship and i was hurt BADLY!

So,all i can say is,i know how she feels...and my best advice to you is simply give her time!

She is deftinately not ready! all you can do on your part is BE THERE for her as a friend,give her her space if she needs it,and dont pressure her.

And maybe,just maybe when she's ready she'll realise what a great guy you are and how much you care about her

:) goodluck mate
