text: any one with help please? my lover &i  started to live separately a year ago. when he called me or email me he always ask me what is new in my life. i tell him that there is not much going on with in me because it is the truth. but he is not satisfied in my answers (he thinks as if i am telling him lies) please tell me what to do? tell him what is going on...all the mundane, boring details! instead of saying "not much" say that you just got slammed with a huge project at work, or that your mom keeps picking fights with you, or that your neighbors got a dog that barks till all hours of the night...if he senses that you are being open with the little details like that, then he'll be more likely to believe you when you say that nothing much is new (romantically, i assume?).
