Boyfriend Says It's All Over - Trick

I'm a woman 27 years old. I had relationship with a man 30 years, calm and introvert. It's started from 1990 and over in 1991 without any reason from him and me though I had asked him so many times. Then in January 1995 It's started again. I first contacted him. It was beautiful. But in June 1995 It's over again without any reason. I have been asking him the reason but he just said that it has to be over. He always wants to stay away from me. But I really know that he still loves me from his friends. And until now he doesn't love any girl friend yet. He cames from a broken family that he never tells me. But I really love him very much. What should I do now. Please kindly give me your advice. Thanks a lot.

From: no expert

It sounds to me as though your friend may be afraid of love. Especially when you mentioned that he is from a broken family. If he has not grown up with love in his family then it makes sense that he scared and runs away when things are going to good. It really is not a concientious thing on his part. I would hate to suggest therapy, but maybe just talking with you about it in a non threatening environment may help. Suggestion: go for a long drive and just start talking and gradually get into the above; by being in the car the conversation should be easier because there is no eye contact involved which brings down the shyness or weariness as well. Good luck.
