Q - Dear Annabelle, How to stay with present boy-friend just friends, (cause he wants serious relations)? We live separate,in different countries, and I can't live like this! I do really appreciate his respect. He told me if I would be gone, he will not be willing to live. A - Dear Ksenia, Bottom line.......YOU are not responsible for his happiness...HE is. That he would threaten suicide if he canāt have what he wants is akin to a two year old threatening to Īhold his breath until he turns blueā. You donāt need that. ........Do you? Tell him youāll be happy to be a Īdistant freindā and nothing more. He has much growing up to do. - Annabelle
