Dear Sophie:

If your “little problem …Is causing (you) the world of pain”- then it is not a little problem and it deserves attention.

You wrote: “when I came back I was very much on the independent, strong woman taking control of this situation, but when I started to see him again I could feel me getting sucked in again”- can you elaborate on what you mean by “getting sucked in again”, why you lost the independent and strong feeling you had before you returned to a relationship with him?
