For all the virgo man on this please help! I am a Pisces women and I Love My Virgo boyfriend very much and he has told me he loved me to.I do everything he wants me to I changed almost everything for him but as soon as there is a problem I have with him it gets him so angry. I recently screwed up because I told him he was acting strange with me and now he told me that he wants space because I'm stressing him out. Does that mean he wants to leave me or he just wants to be left alone? If we are about to break up what can I do to make him come back to me? please help.

ellie1963 agony auntyou should not change you, he picked you for you and now you have changed. Let him have his space but dont be needy and beg him to come back go back to being you. Life will probably be easyier being you any way.

Denise32 agony auntI'm in agreement with Aunt Honesty.

Don't try to think whether his asking for space means he wishes to end it with you - or only wants a little time to himself - because attempting to figure that out will only give you more stress and your head will be spinning. Especially since you asked us what you could do to get him back if you're about to break up. Not a good way to look at it right now.

I must admit it might have been a mistake to "change almost everything for him." You have to be your own person, you know. Just because he says "jump" so to speak, you don't have to ask "how high?"

Perhaps having some space is something you need too. An opportunity to relax, try not to worry and take the attitude that if you have a good relationship, it will work out for the best. You might want to give some thought to what seems to make him angry when you have a problem with him.

If you need help with this, and want to write again you could give a specific example of when it happened that you had an issue with him and received an angry response, we'll give it our best shot if you would like another opinion.....

Take this time to get involved in the activities you enjoy and find rewarding; or, stay home and catch up with your favorite TV programs, or read a book, invite a friend over -whatever you feel like doing/not doing.

I'd say that if you don't hear from him in say, a month, you might send an email or pick up the phone (better than texting) to just say hello, hope you're doing well - light and casual, no pressure, and see how he responds.

Good luck!

aunt honesty agony auntI think maybe what he needs is a bit of space. Dont look at it like it is the end of your relationship just sometimes people need some space to think things through, therefore just give him the time he needs dont contact him let him contact you when he decides what he wants. Goodluck Sweetie.
