The woman I love has gone back to her partner just for the children

DEAR DEIDRE: THE woman I’m in love with has gone back to her partner because her children were so heartbroken when they split.

I’m 29 and she’s 28.

I’ve been in love with her for two years.

We’re so connected emotionally that we rarely go more than a few hours without talking.

She’s always said she’s only with her boyfriend for her children and she loves me.

She ended things with her partner and he moved out but when she told the kids, they were heartbroken.

She says she must try again.

I’m miserable and feel like I’m back to square one.

I don’t want to give up and lose her but I can’t keep living in hope like this.

DEIDRE SAYS: No, you can’t.

Point out to her that it won’t be emotionally healthy for her children if she stays with her ex only for their sakes and not because they have resolved their relationship issues.

But if she is determined, you do have a choice.

Tell her politely you won’t see her again – at least while you are still feeling raw.

My e-leaflet Moving On can help – and it could just be that she will think again when she realises she could lose you.
