space?


Question Posted Thursday July 31 2008, 2:39 pm

my boyfriend of 8+ months, just recently told me last night that he needed 'space' we both were crying our eyes out, and everything was so depressing. i saw it coming because of all the fights we've been having, and things between us just don't feel the same. he says he needs until the end of the week to decide things for himself. we're still dating, but we don't talk anymore. and we won't for the rest of the week. i'm completely crushed. i can't eat or even think straight. i don't know what to do. i just keep crying. what am i supposed to think? are our chances of getting back together good? i just need opinions :(

Getting back together has a pretty low chance after a guy says he needs "space."

And chances are that you're going to feel miserable and sad for a while. But...slowly but surely...you're gonna get back on your own two feet. And one day, you're going to wake up and not cry or feel crushed.

Space and time is what you need to give yourself.

cheers,
stargirl

'Breaks' or break-ups whatever you want to call them are the most devastating things that anyone can every go through, but the best thing for you to do is to try and keep going. You are so much more than the boy you are dating, yes he may have been a big part of you, but if he couldn't realize what an amazing catch you are then he isn't worth it. I know right now you may feel like your world is crumbling around and that nothing will ever be okay again. Depend on your friends alot, call them stay in touch, try not to pull away from them, they will be your strongest allies in this situtation. Try to stay positive in your mind, don't blame it on yourself, know that you did everything that you could to make this relationship work and thats all you can do. Here are some lyrics, ' love is like a puzzle when the pieces don't fit, there ain't nothing you can do about it.' All you can do is try you best, give them all the love that you can, and know that was all you could do.

I think that if you give him some space, then maybe things may turn out the way you want. When I broke-up with my ex I told him I needed space, but he just wouldn't let me be. He kept suffocating me and wouldn't let me think and it ended up badly and we broke-up, simply because he wouldn't let me have my space. Your boyfriend may just need sometime to think, so I think give him that space and maybe he will realize that you are amazing and that he really misses you and needs you.

As for what you can think, well I say think the best, because if you think the worst then the worst will happen. In these situations you have to keep your head up and stay positive, things will get better.

Hope I Helped.
