My boyfriend and I have been seeing each other for four years then he suddenly decided he wanted some space. Recently he said it was over altogether but I miss his company in the evenings. I would like him back but he wants to be friends. Is this possible after seeing someone for this amount of time and would it work? — Kymme

Kymme, relationships hit a plateau at which time they either go on to a higher level or come to a stop. It looks like, for now, yours has come to a stop. It might be that it has come to an end or he might be getting ready to come back and push it to the next level. You won’t know how it’s going to go because at this point he doesn’t know how it will go.
As difficult as it may be, it’s time for you to leave him alone and start building a new life for yourself. That’s the only way he can see what life without you is like. He’ll either enjoy it and your relationship will be over, or he won’t enjoy it and he’ll return. Either way, you can’t force him to return if he isn’t ready. — Queenie
