When the love fades

I’ve been seeing a guy for over a year and he was very caring and loving – then I noticed a change in him.

**I’ve been seeing a guy for over a year and he was very caring and loving – then I noticed a change in him. Now he ignores me and says he’s too tired for sex. He even took his daughter to a Christmas party instead of me. I still have deep feelings for him and I’m so down. I don’t know what to do. Do I have a second chance with him or was he just leading me on?

One of the hardest things to deal with is a broken heart and no matter which way you look at it, this is what you have got. I wish I could tell you he just needs some time, then he will come back, but he couldn’t be clearer with his signals to you that he doesn’t want to be in a relationship with you any longer.

Getting over this will be tough and you will need to be extra kind to yourself. Get some help from friends and work hard at getting yourself interested in some other aspects of your life to help you through it. And the sooner you accept you must deal with this, the sooner you will be back to your old self and able to move on.

Give yourself a good three months of no contact with this man and keep yourself active and involved with the other people in your life. Then you will look back and see this was the right thing to do.
