@barbarav1 My boyfriend of 3 years broke up with me because he could no longer cope with seeing me in so much pain and not being able to help me do anything about it. We had so much fun together - traveling, going out to dinner or just laying low watching a movie. Doing things with him helped distract me from the pain. He could no longer handle it when I would have to cancel plans because I was in too much pain. I understand but I still miss him at times.
