Dear Cupid,

My boyfriend of fours recently dumped me two weeks ago. He said he needed to find himself, although he is 22 years old. Our relationship was a on and off one but this has been the longest time within the four years that we have not spoken. My problem is i miss him so much. Even though our break was for the best because we had a lot of issues and he was emotionally shut off. I can't stop thinking about him and it huts so bad to be without him. I try hanging out with other people and do different things to keep my mind off of him but i always end up thinking about him. He just walked away from our relationship so easily i wish i could do the same but i don't know how, What should I do?

dearkelja agony auntI think this time is good for you too. Why don't you spend the time finding yourself. There is always a reason for a relationship to be on and off again so in my opinion, this one just wasn't right for you. Think about what you want in a guy, what you are willing to give and go from there.

Lately, I have been having a lot of girls nights and they are amazing times. I know you miss your ex but listen to a few sad songs, let it all out of your system and then find a way to move forward.

DoubleM agony auntIn my opinion, the most difficult part of a break-up (and I have experienced some big ones over my 40 adult years) for a man is thinking that the female partner is ok with it. There must have been some situation with the relationship that triggered his action, but if he thinks that you are getting along just fine and moving on, it may begin to eat on him. If not, then well, you may really need to start moving on. I know how it feels. I'm 60-years-old and have been dumped twice in the past six months, one for a richer man and the other because I'm not a vegetarian and drink some beer in the evenings. Like me, you will do fine.
