He assures me that he loves me, but I feel sick and anxious all the time.
I don’t know what to think since he said this. I just assumed we’d always be together.
I’m 35 and my boyfriend is 38. We’ve been together for four years.

We are both currently living with our family while the sale goes through.
I don’t know whether to try and forget what he said or ask him if his plans involve me.

DEIDRE SAYS: Selling a house is one of the most stressful things you can do in life so it’s not surprising it has put a strain on your relationship.
If he is being indecisive, then you’re probably going to have to take the reins and start making some decisions yourself.
If it’s a case of being patient, go with it and see what happens once the house sale goes through.
As the weeks pass, I hope things become clearer.
