time out
Wed, 04-14-2004 - 2:34pm
when my boyfriend said that we need time out and start all over again as friends to know more about each other and take baby steps after going through a very rocky road. According to him, he is not closing his doors and still cares for me but just wanted to make sure if the spark and the magic is still there. He calls once in a while to say hi. I don't want to loose him. Now my question, why a man suggests time out, does it mean being cordial of breaking up. Is time out healthy. At end, what should I do during this process to save and bring us back together again. Please help.
