Q: I’ve been in a relationship for about 3 years now. We had a hard start but things were good for a while. About a year ago, we had our last big fight, which was caused by her jealously.
Since then I’ve felt myself detaching from her bit by bit, and I’ve got into some one-nighters with ex-girlfriends. About four months ago I started to date a friend and I’ve fallen in love with her. This has led to another massive problem with this relationship.
So to get to the point, I want to breakup. I need my space and all that jazz, but I just don’t want to hurt her. She has psychological problems and has already tried to kill herself twice. I just don’t want to make things worse.
Any ideas of how to just get things done without any blood?

Despite being grounded by a seemingly paradoxical levity, which comes across in the form of wry humor throughout our interview, Peter Murphy, a leading light in the gothic underworld, has remained an enigma for over three decades.
He first came to prominence with the preeminent goth band Bauhaus – their seminal cut “Bela Lugosi’s Dead” being forever imprinted in the minds of those who appreciate the dark side thanks to its inclusion, and Murphy’s mood setting appearance, in Tony Scott’s 1983 cult horror classic The Hunger (which starred Catherine Deneuve, David Bowie, and Susan Sarandon).
