I am in a similar situation... My boyfriend wanted a "break" for a month... it's only been like 2 weeks.. but anyway, I let him have his "break"... It gives you a chance I guess to focus on yourself...

Yeah but from all those comments, does it sound like he doesn't want me anymore... umm... I would say no to that one.. lol... but who knows... I think it really depends on the person as to what...

Yes.. I think that would give me closure.. I don't ask myself the "what ifs" and "whys" because I pretty much know those already lol... but there is still that time that I have to exchange things and...

Well in my situation, I was left in limbo... ALL MIXED SIGNALS.. "Wait for me", "I hope you can be a part of my new place", "that's not true" (to now ever seeing him again), "I need a month", "I will...

You Need To Leave Before Something Happens To You Like He Kills You Because He Wants To Know What It's Like To Kill Someone!

Well... he gave me the time limit of a "month or so"... He said that when he gets a new place wants me to be part of it... Told me to hold on to his stuff... said he would call... I told him I didn't...

And what if someone says, "I need month to figure myself out" and tells you to hold on to their stuff.. but they want No contact for that month?

Maybe you have me confused with someone else..

First of all... Thanks Geoff... your comment made me feel good more so then everyone picking apart on me here...
But tal... I keep bringing him up because that is my problem right now.. This whole...

He was diagnosed with OCD when he was young and in college. He took the meds, but not consistently. He never had a committed psychiatrist... He has been through several. He is very good at "acting"...

Well... he knows that he has OCD.. and he accepts that... He no way in hell thinks that he's bipolar... Even the first time he was diagnosed with it before I met him... He once told me that people...

Hey Tal... that was some really good advice... Honestly, it's only been two weeks since this has happened, so it's all still very very fresh. You can't get over a deep love in two weeks... it...

To Tal... One will never know I guess... People aren't psychic, so you could never really know what someone is thinking... Believe me... when my boyfriend was depressed, he would have HORRIBLE...

Hi... I read your story and my heart feels for you being that I am going through a similar thing. The only thing I could tell you which is what I am trying to do myself... is the NO CONTACT RULE. In...

Geoff... You sound a lot like me actually... Please read the post that I had... says Please Help.. Need Advice Bad.. in relationships. I'm new to this site so I don't really know how to copy and...

Would this sometimes make the person that broke it off with you realize what he had?? Does it take that to realize??

We all know that after a relationship, people tend to go on the "rebound"... finding someone to just pass some of the time along and get it out of the system... My question is... is it possible for...

Once again, I think I need to say that if your relationship was very very strong in the first place, then maybe you could have some hope. I think that if a person loved you, love is just hard to turn...

I would have to disagree... I don't really think that someone hurting is let's say "desperate"... I would say maybe confused as to what had happened in sudden breakups and therefore maybe need to...

Damn... you picked that apart Val... I guess though that everyone is entitled to their own beliefs... and there are probably hundreds of millions of essays written about this topic... all saying...

And what if the relationship ends due to someone outside having influence and ending it... the stress is too much and therefore the ex needed the break?

HAHA.. I don't know if Dr. Phil is always the right person for advice!

I think that reconciling might also depend on how deep the relationship was... I mean if it was a few months or maybe ayear with a lot of fighting, then what's the point and why would you miss...

Wow.. this was one of the best things I have read... Could you read my posts 4Answers? You seem pretty good with this...

Hi... What is the difference between "taking a break" and "breaking up"... if you are "taking a break" and the guy gives you a time limit... what does that mean. My boyfriend and I recently took "a...

To Answer Makiavelic76... I say that quote for a few reasons... Firstly, my boyfriend (ex) whatever you want to call it now, is very sick... Most women and I say most want a man who will be able to...

It is in fact very hard for me to come to terms with losing him over this... If you read my previous posts on this board you would know that "THIS" is... It was almost like he blamed me for things...

Right.. I totally understand what you are saying and I guess my question is based on: is the way he is acting based on his issues..

To answer Val... (in which my real name is Val by the way lol), I think that when you have an intimate relationship with someone trust is important... But I guess I see your point.. You could still...

I totally agree with everything that you said regarding truth... I am a big one on trust.. You can't love if you don't trust... and once my trust is broken, I can not hold the relationship... I think...

What is the difference between Separated and Broken up... Usually as far as I know and in dealing with my issue, the separation was said to me, "I need a month to straighten things out".. blah...

I aggree... I think that whoever is doing the dumping should just outright do it... I guess unless it's a different situation... I'm not one for breaks, but a friend of mine took about 4 breaks with...

Well... I am recently going through a "break" with my boyfriend. You could read my post... I mean the situation is different... he's mentally ill and I think that has a major role to play in this...

What about the person who dumped you wanting you back?? What are those chances?

Could someone please give me some more advice regarding this situation.. I would really appreciate it since I'm kind of at a standstill here... Thanks guys!

I definitely think that you should give her time... I don't mean go knocking on her door tomorrow... but when it comes to that point or if it does, you should do it... I just say that because you...

You seem to know about this stuff... and I answered your post as best I could... believe me.. romance is good! GIRLS LOVE THE SPONTANEOUS STUFF... but... have you ever heard of Borderline Personality...

Hey.. you answered my post so I'm answering yours... What kind of girl is she.. is she a compassionate person.. understanding heart?? What did you do that she is now your ex?? Did you guys mutually...

Ordinary guy... Believe me.. I know this... Bryan has lost all his friends due to his illness.. and his two brothers can only be around him max 5 min when he's manic... they avoid him... He had 3...

You are a very positive person.. I wish I could feel that way! :)

I don't really need to read a book to see what my feelings are... He is my best friend... we share a very close bond.. the sex is great.. but also meaningful.. it means something every time we would...

Umm.. my boyfriend wasn't receiving any texts about me... this guy just would feed his head with bad thoughts about me... and that's when the OCD takes over...

Lunagoddess... I don't really...

Oh Believe me... this whole time all this mess was going on in that house with my boyfriend and the roommate saying all this stuff about me and this whole entire situation with the text messages and...

LunaGoddess... no offense, but I think you need to read my post a little more thoroughly... This isn't my roommate... it was my boyfriends... The girl I was speaking about in your first paragraph......

Hi! Well, firstly, I have to really compliment your girlfriend in taking you back all those times... I could never do that... For the record, cheating is a very terrible thing... I think the time...

Good Lord, I hope you are right!!

I really don't know what is going to happen... dealing with Bryan has been quite an experience... I do know that I love him lots and he was my best friend.. and not only did I lose the relationship...

Hi.. I am going to explain my entire situation to you all... hopefully it makes sense... But for some background info.. my boyfriend is a bipolar and also has OCD.. so I have a feeling this all plays...
