Today, my boyfriend broke up with me after 4 perfectly happy years together. The reason? He had a dream in which his dead former girlfriend from when he was 13 told him she still loved him. He now believes his dead childhood sweetheart is trying to contact him and I'm "in the way of their love." FML

The curse of the number 13 lives on... Better get your rabbit's foot and 4 leaved clovers out.

Poor guy. It seems like her death really affected him. I think he needs to go to grief counseling; it might help him.

I her death also played a bit of a part in it. And by the way the word love can mean different things depending on how it's used and besides it doesn't matter how old he was the fact is she died and the guy just misses her a lot. Do try to think.

We also don't know how long they dated for. They could have fallen in love years into the relationship.

If he's disillusioned enough to think that "you" are standing in the way of his love with a deceased former gf, then not only will you be better off w/out him, but he's in need of some grief counseling.

He seems to really have deep issues there. If you still want to try, maybe you could do some counseling with him or he could do some alone. He needs some closure with her to get back to the real world, especially if that occurred at 13, a very tough time for kids. If he's adamant about not going, then you at least tried. There isn't just one soul mate, OP, eventually you will find someone that makes you just as happy. Grieve at the loss, yes, but don't sink because of it. Best of luck
