This is my pre-write to my current boyfriend. Let's see if I can do this...

J,

 

Well there is a lot that I need to say, and it first starts with we have a lot of issues being a couple. There not easy to get through and I know we have tried but being a few hundred miles apart in a brand new relationship hasn't helped us. I think that if we were closer it would be easier to us to work things out instead of through email and telephones, which mask a lot of our feelings.

 

There is no doubt in my mind about how much I care about you! I have ever since we met over a year ago. I don't know what really went wrong when you came to see me and we started dating, maybe it was because we both just wanted it for so long and we had it! FINALLY!

 

But, now being far apart and not being able to see each other as much as a new relationship requires. We've had more than one tear jerking fight in the last two weeks and I think we can both agree that we don't want to fightI hate fighting and don't do it well, and because I hate it so much, I think that's another communication issue we have. I don't like to have arguments, and it may seem like I am pushing you away, or iqnoring you but I'm not, I just don't know what to say, which is why I tend to dissapear when we argue.

 

I think we need more time together in person, in order to make any sort of relatiship work, I think as a couple, we just can't work right now. And we should focus on our friendship. I don't want you to hate me, or be mad at me, but I think at this point we both need a friend that we can lean on and trust, and I think were both good for that.
