Dear Sophie:

You and your now ex  boyfriend were 16 when you started your first romantic relationship. You were both in high school, I assume. Recently, at 22, he graduated college and is planning to  move to another state for employment. A month ago he broke up with you telling you that he “wasn’t happy”, that he “didn’t know who he was”, that it had “nothing  to do with me”, that “this is  for the best” and suggested that the two of you may resume the relationship in the future: “if we ever will work in the long  run… I want you to keep in touch with our mutual friends  because one day I want to be able to contact you”. He  also told you that he  didn’t want  to break up with you and then he  did.

Are you interested in finding out the reason or reasons he broke up with you-if you do, can you list a few such possible reasons?
