She Says... He Says...
Dealing with relationships, friendships and other social headaches.

I need to break up with my boyfriend because he is so emotionally attached to me! HELP!! It is seriously a case of emotional abuse because all I ever hear is, "I don't know what I would do without you!" and, "I don't have to worry about that because you would never leave me!". I need to break up with him before our 6 month anniversary because that will just make it even harder! Please help me! I cannot be a slave anymore!

Signed,
