Finding your YOU that leads to TWO
I never left with my head held high.
I never left after careful, well-thought-out consideration, knowing I had done the right thing.
No, that was never me.
I never wanted to leave. No matter what happened, I would do my part to keep the relationship going because love would conquer all.
I would have stayed until the end.Continue Reading
Our letter today comes from one of our beautiful readers, Victoria. She's asking for some advice on the heartbreak she's experiencing over someone who's clearly still looking in the rear-view mirror for his ex. Her sister's about to be at her wits' end listening to her (haven't we all had family members like that!), so she's hoping to get some fresh advice on here.
Hi Jane,
Thank you for your comments about unavailable men and us thinking they are with us when in fact they are somewhere else. I just wanted some unbiased advice as I think my sister will be fed up of me shortly and I'm on an emotional roller coaster often ending up in tears.
I have been divorced for a long time, found it difficult to get over my husband leaving so threw myself into guarding my heart to make sure it wasn't broken again and raising my child.
I was introduced by friends 8 months ago to a lovely man who I thought was perfect for me.Continue Reading
Ever wondered how someone falls out of love? Especially if that person someone falls out of love with is you? Tori did. Read on to hear what I had to say about it.
My question is regarding how one can fall out of love with someone, when everything is the same if not better over time? I have seen many bad and dysfunctional relationships and people sticking together for the wrong reasons.
My boyfriend and I met on a dating app last May and have been together for a year. The past month he was being a little distant but in a very subtle way. He was still texting me but it felt lackluster and routine. When I would flirt with him or try to make plans he wouldn’t respond with excitement but he would respond.
When I confronted him he broke out in tears saying he didn’t know why but he felt like he was “on his way out” and felt disconnected from me.Continue Reading
Beautiful Jalyn writes to tell us her story and it's one I know so many of us, myself included, have experienced first hand.
I was dating a guy for over a year. We are both 27.
He has two children and I have none. We went on dates, vacations, met each other’s family.
When we started dating it was a lot of red flags but I liked him a lot that I looked past all of it. We used to spend 2 days/nights together. In the last couple months he became distant. Now he disappears for a week or two.
I would get angry and send him nasty text messages calling him awful names. He would say it’s because of my temper and I’ll forgive him and take him back.
It happened at least 8 times.Continue Reading
Beautiful Jillian is scared, and she needs our help.
Here's her email. It's short and to the point, but it tells the story I hear over and over again, from women who are in a place we've all been too often:
Jane,
Truly, I love him. I do. And I just can't let him go.
But I don’t know what to do.
Not too long ago things were wonderful, but now he seems busy all the time. I call him, text him - nothing is working.
I’m scared it's over - please help!

Beautiful Ally is sad and heartbroken, wondering how her boyfriend of 6 months could let her go so easily.
Hi Jane,
I'm an avid reader of your site and your advice has helped me before. I recently ended my relationship and I am having a hard time dealing with it. I feel like I made the right decision but I'm still hurting and confused.
A little background:
I met my boyfriend about 6 months ago.
I was out with a friend and he approached me. I initially was not all that interested but after a lengthy conversation I realized that there was some chemistry. He told me he was getting divorced (after 15 years of marriage), he had been separated over a year (has his own apartment and she has the house) and was moving forward with his life.
He was attractive, very smart and had a great job. I felt like we had a lot in common as I too am intelligent and successful. I have a great job, no kids and never married. He's 40 and I'm 43. He has two young children from his marriage ages 4 and 6.Continue Reading
