Why doesn't he think that he can talk to me?

Mo Answers:

Dear Laura,

He Is a Jerk

Everett

He is not a jerk — she is selfish.

The original version of this answer had several angry sentences aimed at your boyfriend (hopefully, now your EX-boyfriend) for being such a jerk. However, this final version is much calmer.

He Insulted You

Mensch

He is NOT insulting her — he is trying to figure out the right thing.

Anyway, it sounds to me like your boyfriend is no longer interested, but decided to blame it on you. Although I'm not surprised, I'm very sorry that your boyfriend was unwilling to be honest with you. However, I do hope that you will learn to be angry at him for insulting you, rather than just being hurt and bewildered.

Your English Is Fine

Sistergirl

Her letter may be legible, but it may be hard to talk about complicated subjects when there is a language barrier.

First of all, from what I can gather from this message, you are not "slow" at all. Your English grammar is not perfect, but your letter is completely legible. Furthermore, you write better than many people who were raised in this country.

Intimate Relationships Have Unique Rapport

Jeannie

Well, yes, talking to your significant other should be different – you should be able to share everything and anything with that person.

Also, talking to you SHOULD be different than talking to his friends and family, unless he is dating them as well. A boyfriend/girlfriend relationship is unique. The conversations involved will also be unique.

Mo Letting Go

It is very hard letting go of a serious relationship, but it seems to be for the best.

You'll do great!
