It depends on whether you want to make a go of it. Maybe the relationship has run it's course, they do, but if you feel that you can make this work, then try to.

I already gave you my thoughts,, I'd say wait a bit and think it through,, remember "patience"... slow down, breath and think! You love her,, she loves you and some things were said that hurt both of you! Don't end it on anger!
I, as always, am here!

I am in the same sort of situation. Now it is 1 year and 3 months for me and It has been a bad situation for 5 months.

i say patience and maybe get a book for a guide. there are all sorts of way to work with constructive communication. I am not so good with it myself but perhaps you tow could try something like that out. Look up on line or go check out some books just to get the idea.

I feel for you for I am in the same exact place. I am thinking my relationship has run its course.

Communicating by telephone/e-mail/snail mail {Letters} can all be nisconstrued more easier than face-to-face communication.

Best to have a face-to-face with someone before making any long-term decisions IMO.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
