My boyfriend and I were going out for 16 months-everything was great. We thought we made the perfect partnership- we never argued and got on with each other, same values and morals and just everything clicked. We loved each other and saw each other most nearly everyday and if we didnt see each other we talked on the phone. Until 2 weeks ago... we had been at a number of family events- his cousins birthday where he introduced me to his extended family and joked he hoped we got on cause this was the family I was marrying into. the next day was my nephews baptism and famly lunch which he came to. Everything was fine and we were just happy as always. A couple of days later he rang me up saying we needed to talk. He said he loves me and cares for me dearly and hates hurting me but he thinks theres something missing. To me i thought we had the perfect relationship and he still has no idea what he is looking for. We were best friends as well as boyfriend and girlfriend and now i feel like im losing everything. From the moment I met him I knew that this was the man that God intended me to be with forever. I had been obedient and waited til i heard clearly. When i met my boyfriend though he wasn't a christian. He started coming to church and was intrigued by small group and now i think the think he is searching for is a deeper relationship with God. He had a really rough childhood and so with me its probably the first time hes felt loved. we started to deal with alot of things from his past and also help him find a job he liked more. but this has all just come so out the blue and i'm finding it really hard to cope because im sure our relationships is right. I've talked it over with my minister and she was sure that our relationship was 1 for good but had a picture for my boyfriend of a sheepdog and a shepherd rounding up the sheep. He still says he doesnt know whats missing but i cant find the right words to explain to him that no relationship will fill the void of God. He says he wants to get back together and maybe sometime down the line when he figures out whats wrong we can meet up and see how we feel but I'm just really struggling with patience. I know Gods hand is on the situation but I really need prayer to try and understand why this is all happening. We both want to be together but there is this thing stopping him... and now ive lost everything i was sure of- my boyfriend and my best friend. im at a loss about what to do.

CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
please pray for my relationship.

If I were you, I would just give it time. But don't wait specifically for him. Hang with your friends, get to know other people. If it is truly in Gods will, then the two of you WILL meet up again. It's like you said before. No relationship can fill God's void. So let God lead you and listen to only him. If it's in his plan, you two will be a couple.
