Capricorn bf breaks up with me AGAIN!?

We had the most beautiful relationship in the world - lots of love. I thought he was going to be "the one". Then one day he dumps me.

There's a 12 yr age difference between us. Never bothered him/me before, but now his job was about to become more demanding. He had been feeling depressed and extra tired lately so he felt he was about to be too overworked and too physically tired for us to continue on. All of a sudden NOTHING I tried to do to cheer him up worked. I had been giving him lots of space and understanding. He wasn't cheating on me.

While he was making up lame excuse after another, he gets confused and said: I don't know why I'm feeling this way.

I was done! This was the 3rd time he was breaking up with me over some silly stuff.

I just sat there in silence - devastated. I had stuck by him through the rough times, pampered him, supported him, waited on him, cooked for him, loved him unconditionally and he up & quits on me?

Normally I would talk him through his negative feelings and he'd come around, but this time I just didn't have the strength anymore. I couldn't believe he was doing this again.

I didn't say a word. I got up, got a box and put all his belongings inside, but I ALSO put ALL the gifts he ever gave ME in the box. Then I simply said Bye and walked off.

I don't understand the Capricorn mind. I just need to know if giving EVERYTHING back to him sent him a strong enough message to wake up and see the mistake he made.

Take this time to reflect on yourself. Ask questions about the relationship - was it really a good one?

The relationship was absolutely glorious before he started falling apart. He had a health scare during October that really affected him and might have been part of the reason he fell into a depression. There I was hanging in there with him through it all. He got a clean bill of health and I thought he things would be back to normal, but he was still depressed. After we got through with that it was something else that was making him sad, then something else, and then yet another thing. It's all very unfortunate that he didn't feel he could win; I've always told him he could, but he didn't think we could work out any issue that came up.

So for my sanity, I just gave EVERYTHING back to him. I knew I wasn't going to be able to move on with his gifts and belongs laying around. I mean if he "didn't know why he was feeling this way", why didn't he talk to me about it first instead of flat out ending it? Maybe he thought I was gonna beg him to stay. Maybe he didn't expect me to give his stuff back right then and there, I don't know, but from my standpoint of going through that BS with him one more time, it was absolutely the right thing to do

I'd say you handled it perfectly. He needs to know that what he does to you is just wrong, and that your not going to put up with his BS - What, every time he's sad,mad,depressed, he's going to break up with you... F-that! That's not normal. He doesn't know how to handle "rough" situations, so he just hides, and runs. Let him be to one to call/text/email you because if he doesn't then you know what kind of a person this guy is. What's your sign btw?

Good luck my dear!

Thanks! - Yeah, I hate how he won't fight harder for things in general he says are so important to him.

I was born on 2/19. In some circles I'm a Pisces in others I'm an Aquarius. I act like I have a little of both.

Having such a hard day. I am so depressed over this...

Let him go for good.

Unfortuntaley, these depressions hit and honestly him pushing you away is probably the best for you both.

I'm doing my best...

Thanks!
