    5 years down the drain? Please help, feeling down and out.
    My boyfriend and I have been together for 5 years and recently he has said to me that he doesn't feel the same about me anymore and that he doesn't feel we should be together . He says that he's sorry for telling me this and that I don't deserve it but he wanted to tell me the truth. He also says he doesn't know why he feels differently about us it just happened... what should I do? Its been a week now since he's told me this and we have since just been taking things a day at a time as I really want to be with him and don't want to loose him... he's been everything to me for the past 5 years... he's been my best friend, my family, and my man. I don't know what to do, this all came so suddenly and I find it to be so weird because we've always talked about one day getting married , having kids... the whole nine. I feel so lost and alone... any advice? And No, I don't think he's found someone else... he's not that type of guy, he's an amazing person and I don't believe he would do something like that to me. He says he still loves me but he just doesn't feel the same about our relationship and where its going. Please respond Asap. Thanks in Advance for your time.

    Would he be willing to go with you to couples counseling, at least to dissolve the relationship in a loving way and give you closure, if not to save it?

    I doubt it, he has said before in general conversation that couples who need counseling should not be together :( I don't know what to do.

    You, of course, know him best of all. What are you thinking? How about if YOU go for at least a few sessions of counseling?
