Do you always try to thank people, if they give you a best response here?

dorypanda @dorypanda (1601) 24 Feb 07

I try to, if I can, but sometimes I can't do it for one reason or another. Do you get annoyed if you get a message that says you've received a response and it's just 'thank you'?

ilse72 There is no easy way to do this and honesty is the best policy. So tell your boyfriend the truth, that you are not sure you are ready to live together and that you want to be on your own. If you have no intentions of dating him (as in totally ending it), make...
