Hi Anita,

You always respond to all of my posts and I appreciate your wise advice. Yes he did say to just enjoy the time we had left together when we almost fought close to the date we had agreed on to part ways. I am becoming very discouraged in dating and am losing interest in investing that much emotion, time and energy to different people. I’m not sure if it is just me choosing unsuitable men for myself or if I will just not find someone I will have a long term relationship with. My relationships don’t seem to surpass 6 months, either because I end things, they do or it is mutual. I want a partnership for life but I often doubt whether there is something wrong with me or if it has something to do with growing up with an alcoholic father and parents that fought a lot. I find it embarrassing when most of my friends are in 3 years+ relationships and I’m not. It really makes me believe there is something wrong with me
