Dear Sugar,

I am 33 and in a relationship with a 27-year-old male. We have been together for two years, but he constantly has doubts about our relationship and has broken up with me several times. He always apologizes and begs me to take him back, and I cave ever time. I love him and am ready to be committed, but just when things seem to be going well, he starts talking about how he's too young to be in such a serious relationship. I know he loves me, so should I just be patient with him or should I end the relationship once and for all before he hurts me anymore? — In Limbo Lana

Dear In Limbo Lana,

It sounds to me like your boyfriend is just scared of being tied down. I'm not sure if his age has anything to do with it or if you two are simply on different pages, but what I do know is that it's not fair of him to toy with your emotions as he is. Breaking up and making up is a destructive and confusing cycle. My suggestion to you is to sit down and have a very serious talk about the future of your relationship. Make sure you know what his expectations are, make sure he knows what yours are, and if he can't agree to keep the lines of communication open before just throwing up his hands and quitting, you might want to reconsider this relationship. It's important that you both feel secure in the love you share so get to the bottom of this relationship before you waste any more of each other's time. Good luck.
