		<description>Hey Andy,

Thanks for the great comment.

Hmmm... regarding your friend, I honestly don&#039;t believe you can really do anything to help him, aside from being his friend and being there for him.

I read the posts about him and do have some more broad thoughts to share though.

I don&#039;t think it matters one bit whether she left him to be with a woman, with a more attractive or wealthier man, or with an asexual blue alien.

I see his rage in your quote, and he is so angry that she dared to leave him. But what he&#039;s not recognizing there, is that both he and she have every right in the world to be with anyone they choose at any time.

Being together is a mutual choice, but when you take that leap to be with someone, it&#039;s always understood that it may or may not be permanent.

Many times there&#039;s such anger and resentment from a partner that was on the &quot;left&quot; side of the break up, and it sounds more like &quot;Damn it! Someone stole my truck!&quot; than &quot;my partner decided it&#039;s time for her to move on&quot;.

Looking at the trends, we&#039;re seeing more and more break-ups and divorces, as people are less and less likely to stay in relationships that don&#039;t make them happy and don&#039;t meet their needs.

As we as a society and as individuals grow and become more educated, I think shorter relationships will be the norm, not the exception. I know, the idea of &quot;mating for life&quot; is appealing to many from a security standpoint - and breaking up usually sucks from many perspectives - but fact is you&#039;re putting together two individuals, each with his own life, hopes, goals, dreams, aspirations... and people change.

Eventually, especially over the long term, it&#039;s much more likely than not that they&#039;re going to grow apart than together.

Everyone comes into your life for a reason, and although it&#039;s our natural impulse to hang on to them forever, they may have others they need to be with on their journey.

Have an awesome day!
Dan and Jennifer</description>

		<description>Dear Dan and Jennifer

Once again I would like to remark and underline your gift to dot one&#039;s &quot;i&#039;s&quot; and cross one&#039;s &quot;t&#039;s&quot; in situations people cannot find an answer or any support which many of them find in your articles/videos (answers).

On-topic, I respect the man&#039;s wife (sorry didn&#039;t catch their names), I respect her will and power to find for the family in such hard times for her. If there was a chance this message could reach her I would appreciate that very much, as she is the one who really suffers in this given situation (according to the available information).

Thank you one more time for your efforts for helping people when they need a helping hand.

I also have a situation where one of my best friends broke up with his g/f, about 3 months ago, actually she left him for another woman &lt;a href=&quot;http://formula-andy.blogspot.com/2007/02/she-has-girlfriend-now.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;She has a girlfriend now&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://formula-andy.blogspot.com/2007/03/she-has-girlfriend-now-part-2.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;She has a girlfriend. Part 2&lt;/a&gt;, and he is still in a deep depression. How can I help him? Looking forward to your comments guys.

Take care, Andy.</description>
