Dear Auntie
I had a brilliant 4 year relationship with my boyfriend but he ended up it because he was working away and said he didn't want to hold me back back or hurt me.  He's coming home in 3 months and we plan to meet.  He says he still loves me, but he can't be with me.  I'm confused and upset.  My friends ay he's stringing me along, but I don't think he' do that.  I feel lost without him. Should I stay in contact or cut him out completely?  I don't know what would hurt me most.  Wendy, Hitchin

Dear Wendy
You have an awful lot to learn Dearie.  If your relationship was so "brilliant" then why did your boyfriend dump you?  When he said that he was working away and didn't want to "hold you back or hurt you" what he really meant was that he want to be able to shag whoever he wanted with a clear conscience.  When he says that "he loves you but can't be with you" what he really means is that he wants to fuck you with no strings attached.  If you had any sense at all you would tell him to sling his hook.  But I can tell from your letter that... you have no sense at all!  So why waste my time and yours by writing to me in the first place?  Just go ahead and fuck him when he comes home, get dumped, and then end up really unhappy. You dippy cow.  Auntie
