Haven't been in a proper relationship for years- have fallen for lots of fuckwits and alike, been cheated on lots, seem to attract men that forget they are married (obvs I tell them where to go when I've found out- I'm not a marriage breaker). So my trust has been broken lots and I often find myself wondering what is normal behaviour in a relationship and whats not.
Anyway.... I've FINALLY met a non arsehole of a man (I think) and all was going great.... Then an hour before we were meeting at my local last week he calls, very apologetic and upset, to say he had to rush home as his uncle had died suddenly.
He and his uncle were close- his dad wasn't on the scene growing up so uncle stepped up. He's devastated.
I suppose what I want to know is:
- how do I support him now he's grieving?
- how do I stop my mind working overtime when I'm not hearing from him as often as usual?
(Usually we talk 2/3 times a day and send about 20 texts back and forth (I know that's a lot btw!)
Trying not to let my mind question everything, I know he's grieving, I know it's going to take a long time, but raging PMT and broken trust mean I am trying not to let my issues ruin what we have!
