I am a little lost about my boyfriend and I relationship.I am 24 and he is 28. We have been together for 5 years. We have 2 beautiful children together. Our relationship has not been easy.We have delt with everything. Things have been great up until a week ago when he up out of no where tells me he needs "space" so he can think about things. I have packed up some things and went to my mothers with the children. I am heart broken and confused! I have tried talking to him but he completely ignores me. I want to give him space but I want to know everything is OK too. I have a million thoughts running through my mind. What if there's somebody else. What if its really over. What if.. what if.. what if? I am terrified of losing him. I have spoke to him once in a week and he says he loves me and always will but he just doesn't know what he wants. I don't know what to do. How do I give him space and not be angry and hurt. Its hard when my children ask about daddy and I can't answer them. When were going to go home or what's happening. I am scared! Please help

This is why you should get married before you have kids... no ring means no real commitment. No real commitment means everyone does their own thing and doesn't really try...

And the sad part is... doing it this way makes the kids suffer the most.
