    Sudden Shut-down. What Should I Do?

    UPDATE: I got a phone call from "long lost love's" brother today. He called because I left a short message on the answering machine and asked "love" to call me. His brother told me that he died last Tuesday. I am devastated. I last spoke with him Monday night. He didn't intentionally miss one...

    Sudden Shut-down. What Should I Do?

    Sudden Shut-down. What Should I Do?

    I've been reading the forums for a while now and found there are many intelligent and helpful people here. I am looking for feedback and hope you all can help me. I'll be as brief as possible given the complicated relationship. This past January, I reconnected with my first teenage boyfriend...
