love letters
I am newly 39 and my boyfriend of nine months broke up with me on our last day of vacation, which was also the day after my birthday.
Love Letters
In some ways, based on interests, he is almost like the male version of me.
Love Letters
I feel I have to sort through their individual problems and the problems they have with each other. It’s leaving me drained, exhausted, and very much alone.
Love Letters
Should I be dating older women? I hear they don’t like 24-year-olds.
Love Letters
After breaking things off, he still wants to talk every day.

Love Letters
I have wanted to get out of my comfort zone for a while now, and this is the perfect way to do so.
love letters
I think the proximity is part of what is making it hard to forget him — knowing he’s is back for the season and in my hometown.
Love Letters
My fear is that if I say it first and he says it back right away, I’ll forever convince myself that he only said it to be polite.
Love Letters
I have a list of things I value in a person and he checks off all but one.
love letters
He said he didn’t love me enough. I’ve tried to move on.
Love Letters
My friends all tell me I should just talk to the guy, but I’d like to do something different.
Love Letters
I don’t want a divorce. I just would like for things to change.
I always thought it was just puppy love and that I would just get over it or meet someone new. But every time we see each other, our relationship progresses.
love letters
Our marriage was great in the beginning. Ever since we moved together, though, things have been going downhill.
Love Letters
During the semester I work about 35 hours a week, have an unpaid internship for 15 hours, and take classes. Free time can be tough to find.
Even when I ask him to go to the grocery store, he says he can’t.
love letters
I know people suggest talking finances and children before considering marriage, but what do you suggest talking about before trying again and moving for love?
Love Letters
... should I just say “whatever” and have fun?
Love Letters

Our families will be doing Christmas together this year too, which could be a good or bad thing depending on how this goes.
Love Letters
We’ve been friends with benefits but here’s the thing – over the past few months we’ve been closer than ever.
Meredith Goldstein | Love Letters
Am I offbase to want her to stop spending time with this guy?
Love Letters
I have noticed that there has been one constant thing in my life — that I haven’t really fallen out of love with that first ex-girlfriend
Love Letters
Is this just because I am the oldest daughter/niece? Is my family seeing something I am not?
Love Letters
I told her I had to be in her city for a convention, but really I just went to see her. Do I say something?
In that same conversation he started talking about how he’s not as happy in the relationship, and through tears and I love yous, we broke up.
Love Letters
I was heartbroken and devastated. I felt like I had been cheated on even though we never said we would be together.
Love Letters
Q. A month ago, I met this guy on Instagram (we have the same interest in cosplaying). Within two weeks, we confessed our feelings for each other, even though it’s really out of character for me to fall for someone in such a short time. He lives all the way in England while I’m in the US, but we still manage to find good times to communicate. We talk about how much we care for each other, and get excited whenever we discuss my going to his city to study abroad for a semester next year. He’s really funny but can also be serious and a good listener. We’re able to get on along well and can talk without feeling pressure (given the circumstances; we are behind screens).
Love Letters
It’s been over two years now and I am exhausted from the plane rides, the FaceTime calls, and the fact that we only ever see each other one weekend a month.
Love Letters
I was shocked because he told me on the date that they’d just hooked up and nothing more.
love letters
He recently told me that he reached out to her two weeks ago because he thinks it could help him to get over her if he could talk to her about their breakup.
I tried to get her back. I even wrote a hand-written letter to her, but no answer. She ghosted me and just got on with her life.
Love Letters
After 3 years of a long-distance relationship, I’m upset that he planned a vacation with a friend.
