I am 26 and have been in only two relationships ever. One in high school that I frequently forget about. It was more a product of circumstance than actually wanting to be in the relationship. My only other relationship –…

My boyfriend and I broke up one week ago. We met in college and dated for a little over two years. It was a mutual break up after a fight. A lot of things added up over time. This fight…

I guess I'm just afraid that it will make my heart hurt all over again.

I feel like my boyfriend is cheating. Here are my reasons: 1. He takes forever to reply to me even when he's not at work. 2. He thinks that going days without speaking is OK, and I always initiate the…

Hello, My boyfriend and I started dating around mid-March. He's 20 and I'm 19, and it's a same-sex relationship. We met through school. It was an intense relationship that slowly grew over the spring/summer. He was so kind – I…

Here I am in Finland, and I have just been dumped (or not) via FaceTime after an eight-year relationship.

I'm dealing with a messy breakup after dating someone for a few months. The problem started when she was on an international business trip. While she was gone, my friend asked me to go out with him. That night, he…

... it's a month later and I still don't have it.

He swears that was a different time for him and that our time apart changed him.

I broke up with my fiancé who I'd been with for four years.

Hi Meredith, I am 20 years old and my boyfriend broke up with me two weeks ago. We had been in a relationship for almost five months. For the first month of the relationship, we were happy. But then we…

At the end of February I proposed to her, and without hesitation, she said yes.

Hi Meredith, I'll make things short and quick. I was in a stagnant relationship for two years with a man who put up walls and strung me along, and I kept letting it happen. Eventually I couldn't take it anymore.…

I keep asking myself if I can ever truly be happy for him without feeling sad for myself.

Hey Meredith, I'm a 21-year-old guy who dated a woman for about a year, until early 2018. It was long-distance because I was going to school in the US while she was studying abroad. We only met for a few…

So, how can I know if someone's the one?

Right before I gave birth, I found out he was cheating on me, both with the mother of his first child and with a random girl he had met a few years prior to knowing me.

At this point, I'm just fed up with the amount of emotional labor, time, effort, and communication I've put into this.

Even though I know the breakup freed both of us, he is dragging my name through the mud.

I met my ex on Tinder two and a half years ago.

Is it some sort of "complicated grief"?

I think the proximity is part of what is making it hard to forget him, knowing he’s is back for the summer and in my hometown.

Later, after he found out I had spent the night with someone else, he called and said he thought about me a lot and worried that he might not find someone as great as I am.

He says he's tired and doesn’t want to stay up late or spend the money.

Hi Meredith! My ex and I dated for four and a half years and were engaged. We had the entire wedding planned, and about five months out from the wedding, I told him I wasn't sure about getting married because…
