Dear Dee:

C o n g r a t u l a t i o n s- for breaking up with your “unwanted boyfriend”, the boyfriend you did not want. You did the right thing for yourself and for him.

“I feel as though I truly hurt and damaged his heart”- his heart might hurt, but you did not damage him by breaking up with him. You did right by him when you to broke up with him kindly and respectfully. Keep it this way (don’t go back).

You are welcome, thank you for expressing your appreciation, and I will not be mad if you post about future relationship troubles (with someone new!)- no worries at all. Post again anytime you need to, and I will be glad to read from you and reply.
