Dear Diana,

We've been in a relationship two years and recently decided to get married. Life was going fine when all of a sudden, his behaviour changed. We'd started fighting and had a lot of arguments. I now feel that there is no love left between us.

One day he called me up and we had a huge fight. I've decided to let him go. In between, my medical problem got solved and I am perfectly fine these days.

It's been three months since. He called me saying he wants to get back with me. I have been distressed since. Should I?

Dear Friend,

Okay, first of all, what medical problem are you talking about? There is just a passing mention of it in your letter. Is this the reason why the two you drifted apart? Was this the cause of the anger and frustration?

Because if it is, it seems that he's simply an opportunist, if nothing else. Now that it is resolved (your problem), he's ready for reconciliation.

The timing is very suspect. Whether or not you want to give him another chance is up to you. If you think he doesn't deserve you, don't get back with him.

I was too late!

Dear Diana,

I'm 21 and in love with a girl who's two years younger that I am. I am madly in love with her. For four years now, I haven't been able to express my feelings for her because I was scared of losing our friendship if I did tell her. Now she's having an affair with a boy from her college.

I promptly told her how I felt for her but she has replied that it is too late. She's still my friend but when I'm with her, I don't know how to keep my emotions in check. It is fate, after all!
