Breaking Heart

[piplover]

Can anyone offer any advice on how to deal with a breaking heart? My fiance, at least I think he is still my fiance, just sent me a very hasty email telling me that he's sorry for being a nuisance and hopes he didn't interfere with my life too much.
I love him with all my heart, but I don't know what to do. He wrote it because I pushed an issue that we have been debating for some time. I won't say anymore on that.
I just don't know what to do. My heart feels shattered, and I don't think I can keep going if he breaks up with me. I just hate this long distance! I hate that I can't be there for him when he needs me, because I know he is hurting and lonely and scared. I wish I were in Iraq right now so I could be at least on the same continent as him.
But for now, all I can do is write him back and ask him not to chuck our whole relationship. I just don't know what to do. I feel broken.

I am just catching up, sweetie, and am so sorry that you are hurting. From the vantage of years, I can offer one piece of advice. You know him better than I do but I would say deluge him with emails and letters and reassurances. Men are so insecure. He most likely can't believe that a young, beautiful woman loves him, so you have to tell him that and tell him that and tell him that. After you have been married for thirty years, he might believe you.

Thank you, Budgie. I needed to hear that. I have sent him two emails already, and am going to send him a snail mail tomorrow. Let us see if he can outstubborn me. I think you are right, though, and that he is just feeling insecure. At least, I hope so.
