although there are articles that state that a woman can do things to turn his feelings around, I think that once a guy starts to show that he is no longer interested in a woman by pulling away, then the woman should let go and move forward, because the writing is on the wall and it's just a matter of time before he moves on...

Do you agree or disagree?

Neither. It depends on the specifics.

Are we talking two kids dating? A married couple? Do they have kids together? Are they living together, or living separately?

What exactly has he been doing that indicates he's pulling away? Has she been doing something that he sees as pulling away before now? (FYI, with that last one, how he sees things is more important that whether she really is pulling away.)

How long have they been together? How do you know he's pulling away and not simply relaxing into a comfortable plateau in the relationship?

C'mon, now...dish to the C-D agony aunts and uncles!

I agree. I have never had a man pull away that ever actually came back in the other direction. The ones that were into me, stayed into me. The ones that started to lose interest ultimately left.

In general men tend to think and act in black and white, so if he starts losing interest he's probably already uninterested.

We'd see a lot less bitter men and women in this world if everyone follows that rule/advice.

^^^^^^^^ true. The worst thing you can do is chase someone who already seems to be going in the opposite direction.

This thread is painting with an awfully broad brush... way too many unknowns in this hypothetical.
