I think you answered your own question. Break up! It does her and you no good to stay together.

You probably feel guilty because she has done so much to be with you, but hopefully she has...

Your father won't die if you marry her... your family is guilting you into this! Don't listen to your family, listen to your heart. Be with who you want to be with... it is your life, not theirs!

I think you know the answer to this... which leads me to believe you aren't over her, are you?

Obviously stay away from her and her drama!

You're trying to walk on eggshells in hopes of her wanting to come back. I understand you aren't trying to rock the boat, but you're obviously confused about your current relationship and you're...

Sounds like she's stringing you along and using bits and pieces of what you used to have as a "crutch". I don't think she's trying to make you feel better... she's trying to make herself feel...

Two different sheets, one for each of you? Or maybe just tuck in your half of the sheets? I don't think you're going to make him like tucking in the sheets... I personally go for the no-tuck.

For this to work, something's got to give. Either you have to accept his "retreat" or he needs to learn how to communicate so you can resolve any issues you might have instead of sweeping them under...

Seems the both of you are all over the place with emotions and decisions. Seek clarity by being yourself for a while without a boyfriend. This relationship does not sound healthy.

Best of luck!

Oh boy I think you know the answer to this! Leave leave leave! He's insecure and he's a cheater, plain and simple.

It appears his self respect is gone, and you've lost respect for him as well. You can try to cut and run, or do the "space" thing for a bit and see if he picks himself back up... regardless it's not...

Your trust is completely broken, and this is not the first time. You found out on your own, meaning he was hiding it. Sorry you don't just text people sexual things like that when you're in a...

Yea I would honestly talk to her about it... sounds like you haven't really approached her with how it will make you feel. I would voice your concern and take it from there. If she still wants to...

Yea stay with your husband so your son has a "normal" life. I'm sure he won't be messed up from learning about how his mom was sleeping around on his Dad because she was too scared to separate and...

I agree with Drew. Things are still too early... it's only been a little over a month. My advice is when someone starts to distance themselves, do the same thing. A lot of times when people start...

No it's okay. Very strange belief, I'll leave it at that.

I don't even know how to respond to this other than laughing.

**REALITY CHECK**

I know you mean well, but it sounds like you're too needy. He walks all over you and you let him come back for more each time. It sounds like you've invested too much of...

I know you're thinking about closure at this point, but I don't think you can get it from her. So I honestly wouldn't bother. I would focus more on the fact that she completely screwed you over...

You're analyzing his actions too much. It's pretty clear that something is up with him... but it's not your job to figure it out. Stop worrying about his actions and try to subdue your...

Something stinks and it doesn't sound like it has anything to do with you. Usually when there's a sudden change in behavior, SOMETHING had to have happened with her. The fact that she isn't opening...

Remember that space during a relationship is VERY important... not just when you're having problems. It sounds to me that your insecurities lead you to "smother" her... sorry that I'm assuming...

Yes I did feel some sense of rejection when hearing a comment like that... and it's startling to find that out... almost like a wake-up call. I wouldn't want to date someone who was so easily...

Everything you've said about him shows how incredibly insecure he is. He wants reassurance from people frequently so he feels better about himself. His behavior you described sets off so many red...

Sounds like he's starting to back out like amicon said. He's using the "my life is a mess" excuse as a route to exit the relationship. I could be wrong but that's my guess at least.

Regardless,...

You're in quite the mess my friend!

For starters, do not move in together. It's WAY too early to consider that an option. So even if things work out between you two, I would highly advise not...

Your posts wreak of desperation so not picking up if she calls probably won't get any point across. I'm thinking this has nothing to do with religion at all. She wants to "test the waters" and see...

Ouch this is tough. You should tell her, plain and simple. You cheated and made a huge mistake, and keeping that from someone you want to marry is going to eat away at you. You want to spend the...

There really isn't a way you can keep in touch with her AND move on at the same time. There's a reason why many of us preach NC after a breakup. You need time to clear your mind and let your broken...

Could you give a little more information? Are you leaving the area for a trip or for good? Who is the man, how long have you been dating him (are you actually dating him?)

It's hard to give you...

All of this has happened in 3 months time? That sounded like a 5 year relationship by all the events. It seems from the get-go things have been extremely rocky between you two.

I wouldn't move...

I think you need to gain the confidence, be strong, and end things. You know you shouldn't be with this person. You know it deep down he isn't the right one for you. It's good that you see this, and...

I might be wrong but I think sending her a message and telling her you're moving (whether you say it's not because of her or not) will give her the impression you ARE moving because of her.

This...

It's nice that you like him and you find him interesting and all, but you're giving him the wrong impression completely. You wore something that you described yourself as "skanky", you put out on...

Yea this is a tough one. Technically you weren't exclusive so you both are free to date other people. It sounds like you weren't fond of the idea of not being exclusive, so you should've spoken up...

You might not look at NC as being a game, but it sounds like it's turning into one (might not be intentional but that's how it's perceived on my end). I wouldn't bother telling her you're moving...

Stop worrying so much about what others think. You don't have to keep up appearances just to make yourself look good to other people. You ended up lying to your friends that you were still together...

Relationships come and go but you only have one father. I can understand how emotionally taxing it is during this period. Concentrate on being with your Dad and worry about the other stuff later. ...

Post analysis can be draining, both emotionally and mentally. We're all guilty of looking back and trying to figure out what we did wrong, what we could've done differently, etc. Trust is a big thing...

Do what you think is right.

Getting a new girl will not heal you... only time will. How much time is up to you, and by the looks of it you'll need a lot more time after contacting your ex.
...

I agree with the others. It's fine if you are OVER your ex and expect nothing from it. But from the way you described your story, you are not over her yet. If you do send her a happy birthday...

You already know the answer... she said it to you! Obviously the age difference is something she wouldn't be able to handle, even if she was single.

Regardless, she is taken, engaged, and to be...

I honestly have before... I'm not saying that it's right but I have haha. When I have thought about it, it was only a thought in the back of my head... it was never a driving factor towards any...

Question... why are you emphasizing the sex so much? I didn't read one phrase in your post about love (apart from the actual word)... just about sex.

I would run if someone told me they weren't...

Breakup sex? What for? Just think of the last time you had sex with her as breakup sex and don't bother doing it. The mere fact that she requested this shows some indication of her immaturity.
...

Start small and find out what makes you happy. Go for walks, hikes, runs (all free). I think you fail because you have expectations for immediate results. Exercising isn't just about looking...

You were very gender neutral in your first post and gave no indication of your sex... sorry if any of us thought you were a guy (I honestly did for some weird reason).

Have you seen a therapist? ...

It all starts with self love. If you are beaming with self confidence, people will be drawn to you. When you have such negative feelings about yourself, people will feel the same way about you. It...

What do YOU think? It sounds like you want her to come crawling back to you and beg to get back together. Is that really what you want? The fact that you are questioning her motives leads me to...

So because they are insensitive you should go sleep with a bunch of girls to get something out of your system? What is he getting out of his system? He's not sexually frustrated. Seems to be a...

Oh boy, what a rollercoaster you've been on! It's good to hear that you are past the meds and the drugs, and seem to be in a healthier state of mind.

Even though she didn't technically cheat on...
