Lonely222 Posted October 14, 2004 Share Posted October 14, 2004 It hurts so much that after 5 years of dating my boyfriend, right before we were going to get engaged, he breaks up with me, telling me he didn't "feel we were right for each other." How do I get over that? Why does he think that? And why did I have no clue? Please help. Link to post Share on other sites
Weird Posted October 14, 2004 Share Posted October 14, 2004 did you ask him to be honest as to why he thinks that? If you haven't, do so and then report back with some more details. Link to post Share on other sites
reservoirdog1 Posted October 14, 2004 Share Posted October 14, 2004 This definitely isn't what you want to hear, but... I think he's giving you a huge heads-up. He's telling you that he has massive doubts about a future between you two. It's definitely the kind of thing you want to hear NOW, rather than in five years when you're married and have kids. Which doesn't make it any easier for you to handle... and it doesn't mean it can't work between you two. You guys need to talk. Consider couples counselling. Each of you should put your mind to the question, "what would have to change about my partner or this relationship in order for me to be happy in it?" As long as you're both honest, you should develop an idea of what changes are doable and which aren't. I wish you the best. Link to post Share on other sites
Naive Posted October 14, 2004 Share Posted October 14, 2004 It must be hard, but better now that when you are married. Link to post Share on other sites
