Hi Anita,

Thank-you for your kind words of wisdom. I did ask my boyfriend to speak with me about our needs and values, but he said he didn’t want to have anymore “philosophical conversations.” In fact, we hadn’t spoken in a few days so I suggested we just talk to clarify things between us were over. He replied saying I was too dramatic and he didn’t want to talk anymore and that we should just leave it. I am unhappy with the way things have ended, as we have been together for so long. I guess I just feel like he has disrespected me in the end, and he does not want to come to a peaceful end. Based on this comment, it is same to assume we are no longer together.
