A female United States age 41-50, anonymous writes:

My long distance boyfriend for 2 1/2 years stopped talking to me just like that. We had such a good relationship and love each other so much. He live in different state which is about 3000 miles from me but we see each other every other month. We always had the best time. We were so in love to each other and one day we had small fight over the phone and that was it. He disappeared. Was calling and texting him here and there like crazy to find out what was going on. I didn't get any response or whatsoever. Five days after the fight and ignoring me, he sent me a bday gift and called me just to say happy bithday. I haven't heard anything again after that. Was calling him again no responce. One month after that he sent me a picture text of him and our friends wedding. Still not talking to me. I stopped calling him after that. I am so confused. I'm not sure what and why he's doing this to me. It seems like he does not care about me anymore. What should i do. Please help.

xAx agony auntOnce you get over him, which you will, just enjoy yourself. Enjoy partying, flirting, etc and when you're not expecting some guy is gonna swipe you off your feet. That's what happened to me and i haven't looked back!

I'm supposed to now back home to be with him and this happened. I am still madly Inlove with him but what he did to me is something Icant accept it. Iam disappointed it ended this way. I've been receiving unknown calls and when I pick up just silence on the line and just listening. I have a feeling it was him because I never t calls from unknown. And also he used to call me at work all the time also and I'm receiving calls and hang up. If he wants to talk why not say something. I just want closure that's all.

You should be thankful that it lasted so long. Generally, LDRs have 6-12 months before they become either non-LDRs, or simply non-Rs.....

So_Very_Confused agony auntI would not reply and I would ignore him to be honest.

he's keeping contact to a minimum but it's his way to keep you hanging on.

with LDRs if after 6 months to a year at your age if one of you or both of you are not planning a move, then the relationship is going nowhere.

this one is dead. let it go.

Blocked him on my contacts 2 days ago. Earlier today I recieved an email from him saying " I guess blocking my number is the only way to get rid of me". I didn't reply. Not sure if I should. I can't believe he has a nerve to ask me after what he's done to me.

A female reader, Honeypie United States + , writes (16 June 2013):

Honeypie agony auntIf you don't plan on visiting him, I would block him. Because what is the point in getting texts from him if you are trying to move past it.

One thing you have to accept is, you might NOT get closure. Specially if he can't even have the decency to break up with you.

I would send him one last text saying something along the lines of:" I'm assuming we are over, so please have the decency to stop contacting/texting me, as I have no wish to talk/text to you."

I was thinking of going there to visit my home town and my best friend. And of course get a closure. Him texting me don't help when I'm trying to move on. Should I block him on my phone list??

A reader, anonymous, writes (15 June 2013):

Maybe you should be daring and just go out there and knock on his door. But, go with the intention that it is over and shame him a bit about how cowardly he is to behave in such a childish way. To man up and end things with you the right way if that is what he wanted... And note that he should stop texting you at all if that is what he wanted to begin with because your moving onto bigger and better things than him.

Bring a girlfriend, and vacation a bit when youre there? :)

I once drove 18 hours to see an ex who has ignored me for 4 months... I wanted closure.

He apparently got married and was expecting a baby.

Take a snapshot of his face when he looks shocked that you found him. Make a little story of it on fb and soon it will be shared on viral; make a fool of him.

Honeypie agony auntMaybe he sent those because he doesn't want to seem like it is HIM "dumping" you. More like he is letting you down "gently, which we all know is crap and cowardly.

Don't feel too bad... LDR's are very difficult, even if you see each other occasionally.

Stop concerning yourself with what happened (it wasn't your fault) and try and move on, this time with someone closer to home.

Honeypie agony auntSounds like he's found "greener grass" closer to home to be honest.

I would let HIM do the next contacting, if he doesn't call/text in the next week I'd mail back whatever you feel you "owe" him or just don't want to keep that he's given you, and move on.

xAx agony auntShort and sweet - sounds to me like he's too lazy/pathetic to break it off and is stringing you along for whatever reason. By the sounds of it, calling him isn't making a difference. Ironically, maybe not calling him will get his attention?
