My g/f has asthma and I'm afraid that it will cause complications in our relationship. I love her will all my heart and I'm looking for ways to heal her deal with it. But I'm afraid that it's getting to the point that I'm scared of losing her. We have a long distance relationship (I'm a truck driver too) and her asthma is become more and more severe. I'm tired of the drama in this relationship but I feel that I'd look like an *** if I dumped her. What can I do?

Tell her to go to her doctor and ask them about Advair or Singulair. I have had asthma all of my life and I'm 47 (almost 48) years old. Just last year my doctor prescribed Advair for me. You inhale it in the morning and then at night and it prevents you from having an asthma attack. It works great. In the past I'd have an asthma attack and use my inhaler to stop the asthma symptoms. Now, I don't have to worry about it. As long as I use the Advair I don't have any attacks at all. She should go see her doctor. She will feel so much better!

You are a sensitive and caring person.She has a severe asthma and will remain with her forever.You should think about your future children too.Asthma is not hereditary but sometimes children born with weak lungs if either of the parents has asthma.It means there are more than 50% chances that your children might get asthma from the birth. These people are very sensitive so if you decide to breakup with her do so without hurting her a lot. I suggest sit down with her and tell her very nicely that breakup is good for both of you.

If you truly do love her with all your heart, then stay with her. If you don't then break up with her. It's that simple. If you love her and want to help her then do research on-line, find out about the latest medicines and treatments for Asthma and make sure she is aware of them. I'm not sure what you mean exactly when you say you are tired of the "drama" in your relationship. Asthma is not something she chose to have, try to understand how much she probably wishes she didn't have it.

First of all do you really love her?If you do then you will do everthing in your power to keep her.Against all odds.You have to learn about the triggers of Asthma so you can know what causes her to get an attack.It is quite normal to have asthma.I know you feel like you might be a cause of an attack.Pollen,animal fur,changing of seasons or weather,emotional upsets,physical strain and cold/flu are some of the causes of an attack.Feel free to ask me any questions about Asthma and ill gladly assist you.Hope that helped a bit.

you don't love her with all your heart--you have coditions on your love for her and, I suspect you're fairly young because you're not clear what love is. Real love is unconditional-it has no boundaries, knows no limits, has no fears. What you may have is known as 'infatuate love.' That's the hottest kind of love but it's the love we feel when we know the least about someone. You need to have 'companionate love' which is the opposite kind of love. It's when you know all there is to really know about someone and, in spite of the negatives, you still love them. This takes time and maturity. When I said that you're young, I didn't mean it as an insult, but as an observation. If you really loved her, you wouldn't think about yourself and how you looked about 'dumping her.' The words would never cross your mind. You have lots of time for real love--the rest is not hers, but your drama.

This may sound crazy,but someone I know had asthma,and was so desparate that they took worm medicine. They said it helped for about a month.

Is she being treated for it? If not encourage her to do so. If she is be sympathetic and understanding. If you can't do that, then do her a favor and move on.
