carleela, no wonder you're not doing well. You've been hit with one traumatic experience after another in a short period of time. Give yourself some time to heal. Your boyfriend may be having a hard time as well...so maybe it would be best to just leave things as they are right now. You need time for you.

I agree with TaintedGoth1. I think the best advice for you is to appreciate the distance right now between you and your partner. There has been a lot happening to take in. People often say "listen to your heart" but when your heart is so torn, it makes it difficult for you to think objectively. Let you and your partner take time away for a bit until some healing has occured. A passtime to keep you busy would be helpful and some counselling would definitely benefit you.
