 It sounds like he's having doubts. Give him a few weeks of space. Don't read anything into it. If you don't hear from him for about a month, move onto someone new...

 I think you should end it now. You're only dating 5 months and constantly arguing. That is not a good sign at all. If it's meant to be it'll come back to you.

reader, anonymous, writes (18 June 2007): Whilst each relationship is different, I would say 5 months in and you should still be in a honeymood stage of enjoying each others company. You need to be aware that endless arguing eventually ends up killing the passion for either both of you, or one of you. It sounds like perhaps it is taking a toll on your boyfriend? With every argument you risk the other person just deciding to walk away - remember that.
Ask yourself if this relationship is really any good for you. Sometimes people fall for people who actually do them harm, rather than good. Abuse is somehow mixed in with love but the dynamics of the relationship cause you both to still want each other. If you want to invest in this relationship long term, perhaps it is worth seeing a counsellor. You obviously both need to develop your communication skills with each other so that things don't progress to arguing.
