I've been with my boyfriend for 3 months and both of us fell madly in love with each other. He broke up with his ex a couple of months before meeting me and has got a son with her. There is nothing between them and he only stayed with her for the sake of his son (now 3) which he's admitted was wrong. since their breakup she wont let him see his son and this has hit him hard. along with that his business is falling behind schedual and he's recently found out his nan has only a few days to live. Understandably he needs a break from us to try to sort his life out. This has broken my heart as we are still so madly in love. I feel he can't cope and i have no idea how to help him! I've not got in contact with him for a few days to give him the space he needs but i go back to uni in a few days and i dont want to leave it with us on a break and not knowing exactly where i stand. what do i do?

If he's really madly in love with you, it seems like he would want to be with you during this hard time, not away from you.
Or, maybe he just realized he neglected a lot of things in the process of falling in love.
But the fact is, he sort of took control of the relationship by saying he wanted a break, and he didn't really give you any say. If possible, I wouldn't contact him and I would try to move on.
However, if you must contact him, I think it would be reasonable to tell him that you are leaving for Uni and that you wish him well etc. before you go.
1Unless he is a total pig he'll tell you where you stand before you go back to school.
2If he knows you're leaving for Uni and he doesn't try to contact you or see you before you go (even for a short amount of time amidst everything he's got going on), he's a loser. I would wait for him to contact you, as hard as it will be, and if he doesn't then you know full well he's not worth it and you deserve better!
3If it were me, I'd call and say hey, going back to school, hope everything is going well for you and sorry for your loss. I wouldn't even ask about the relationship.
