Dear Annie: A year ago, I had a relationship with a much younger woman. We were both single and developed deep feelings for each other. In spite of the age difference, we had a connection. We were never “official,” but we shared a closeness.
The relationship lasted about five months when out of the blue, she couldn’t see me anymore. She said there wasn’t another man, but who knows. She then ghosted me, cut me off completely and blocked me on social media but not by phone number.
I reached out to her a few times via text, but she never replied. Although I accept that she is no longer interested, I am bothered by how it ended. I have seen her a few times around town, but she acts as if we never knew each other and does not speak to me. She basically just erased me from her life, but it still makes me wonder why. Any advice? -- Bewildered
Dear Bewildered: When we don’t get closure in situations like this, all we’re left with are unanswered questions and wandering minds. Your confusion and pain are totally warranted.
Perhaps why this woman cut you off is unimportant; someone who doesn’t even acknowledge you isn’t worthy of your love and attention. Remember that the right person for you is still out there -- and when you find each other, you’ll never have to question where you stand.
