Dear Emily:

You wrote, “Me, always wanting to fix things, continued to reach out to him until he called it quits”- at the least you were on of the two of you who broke things. It is better to not break things than to break things and then try to fix what was broken.

“Didn’t I mean anything to him? How is he handling this so easily?”- reads to me that you meant a whole lot to him. And I don’t know if he is handling this so easily. He may be less desperate than you, more reasonable. But I don’t know if he is having an easy time. Do you know that he is having an easy time?

You mentioned your insecurities. How did your insecurities express themselves while the relationship was happening?
