Hey Katie,

I said it in a response to you in my thread, but I am glad to see that you are doing well since your breakup. Communication is such a big part of relationships, and if the person you want to be with can’t let you know where you are at when you ask them, then I guess it might not be worth holding on to.

In summer, I was dating this one woman, and I think she broke it off because, after being around each other for about the same time as you were with that guy, I asked her where things might be at. Like you, I don’t like playing the whole game that some people seem to enjoy when it comes to relationships. If I like someone, and care about them, why would I play coy? It’s not a matter of having an upper hand over someone. It’s about communication and trust that will build a good relationship.

Again, I’m glad that you are doing well and have a good Xmas.
