Well I will make my long story pretty short. My ex boyfriend and I have been dating of a little over 2years. We were like so close to perfect. We barely fought and stuff like that. We were always together no matter what. We are both in college and he just turned 21. Three weeks ago I broke up with him because I was just super stress too many things going on in my life. School, money, family and just things... He got on my nerves so bad that day that I was just about to go crazy and aia decided to break up with him. I guess he took it too seriously and he was treating me like crap and a week later I find out he is dating this girl he barely knows that just started working where he works. I know he obiously loves me the same way he does. This girl just came out of no where. So I have been crying so much, I have lost so much weight and been very stressed. His family and I are vey close so one ever expected us breaking up. It has been three weeks and since I have not been calling him like crazy or texting him. For the past 3 days he has been calling me and apologizing for being very mean to me. He wants us to be best friends but then again he keeps brings stuff like I miss you, I remember the day we first went out things like that.He also wants to be with me on my birthday which will be in like 2 more weeks. So he confuses me... I don't know what is going thru his mind. I just want to know if I should move on or wait until he know what he wants. Can anyone please help me a little any suggestions... I really appreciate it... Sorry for making my short story pretty long...

I'm just trying to read this story of your's right and understand it.
- You were stressed and being all stressed out you got upset at him and broke it off.
So far this is your fault not his. You over reacted.
- Why woudlnt he take being dumped seriously? He thought things were perfect as well.
- He is speeking badly about you = Its natural when you are in love with someone and they
dump you that you will be hurt and maybe bad talk the other.
- He started dating another girl a week later, could be rebound from the hurt.
- You are losing weight and crying from the stress of the break up, but your not calling him or
texting him = why? are you expecting him to apologize?

Ok all I see here an please don't take this offensively is two people who have not matured enough to deal with a serioius relationship.
You can't control your stress and take it out on him. Then you expect him to not take it seriously and call you to get back together ?
He either wasn't that into you or was severely hurt that he found a new girl in a week.

He wants to be freinds with you (a mature thing) but is rehashing the past because he misses what you had. By now however if he is in a new relationship either he is sad you broke up but is moving on or did get into a new relationship on a rebound but regrets it because he wants to get back with you but can't.

The only thing I can say is = if you are sorry tell him it was your fault. = if your not than move on and let him enjoy his new girlfreind. If you want him back - tell him and be prepaired for the answer. If you don't MOVE ON. Being freinds after a relationship seldom works unless it was a mutal agreement things weren't working and the two parties were mature enough to handle thier fears, emotionss, jealousies etc.
From what you tell me, you two aren't there yet. For now you might want to start off by remainnig civil with you ex. and see where it goes from there.

Oh and if you think that maturity hits the day you turn 18 ? Think again. I have freinds in their 40s who still need to grow up as far as relationships. Its hardest when you have never had any because you learn something from each one.

Good luck and don't take what I said the wrong way. I'm just blunt.

Question Asker Thnak you so much 4 writting ur opinion I really appreciate it... I actually did apologize and asked his to work things out between us and he didn't want to... So all I can do now is move on and I hope that one day he realizes what he lost... - 2 months ago
Answerer Your doing the right thing. Some things are meant to be others aren't. The future is unpredictable though. For an example, I dated a girl in 1980 for one year. She was too clingy and niether one of us was mature enough to have a SERIOUS relationship. I broke up with her.
In 1998 she divorced her first husband and in 2000 we dated again ! - were married in 2002.
We had a beautiful child together but due to mental ilness that she has we are separated.

Your situation is easily retrievable. He loves you as much as you do him.

However, first a couple of things that were wrong in your relationship:

1. I think you both need to trust each other more and be emotionally close. When you are having a tough time in your life, you should be able to confide in your boyfriend and get emotional support from him. Instead you were maintaining a facade with him and when it became too much it all fell apart.

2. You must learn to handle stressful situations better. It was not necessary to break up with him just because of stress. If supporting each other during times of stress is at the highest level of closeness and not sharing any feelings with each other is at the lowest level, you guys were probably in the middle.

You have hurt him badly and made him feel that you don't love him. Go and apologize to him. Tell him how horrible you feel for lashing out at him like that. (Dont spoil the apology with any excuses.) Tell him that you love him very much and can not live without him.

While doing this, don't be over emotional nor casual. It has to be just right. Don't wait too long.

He will come back to you.

Question Asker Thank you for taking your time to answer my questionWell my ex boyfriend just confuses me.I have apologized &done all I have to be with him, but he just says that he wants to be my friend and that he never wants me to leave his lifeI don't understand he was with me for over 2yrs, we break up one week later he is with someone else who he doesn't even knowNow I don't even know if I should even try anythingHe still keeps calling me late at night or just sending me txt mess.i love him so much - 3 months ago
Answerer Look, he has been hurt and this girl is his rebound girl. This relationship has a 90% chance of failure. So, maintain your friendship with him and go on with your life and soon he will be back. In the mean time, go out with other men. - 2 months ago
Question Asker Yes, that's what a lot of people have been telling me... I mean I still go out and have fun with my friends... About going out with other men I am not too sure about that... I just don't know if being his friend will help me get over him... Have you ever been thru this?? What I hate the most is that he was my Facebook friend and she was two and she will post stuff like "OMG BABY, I love you so much" I mean come on you barely know this guy and you already love him... That made me so so mad I just - 2 months ago
Question Asker I just decided to block both of them... I though that was rude... - 2 months ago
Answerer Actually, I am talking from experience. One of my ex-gfs was very nice, but once we fought over something and she walked out and started going out with another guy. Initially, I was very hurt but decided to move on. Then she started texting me and all that. It was very tempting to go back, & I would have if she had not started going out with some one so soon.

I did not. And found some one nice. However, within a short time her new relationship fell apart. Her loss. - 2 months ago
Question Asker I will not try to get him back anymore because his obviously confused.I really do love him so much, but his just acting like a little kid just like she is. I just signed up for the gym, I work, have great friends, awsome family, and soon I will start collegeI will just move on.If he ever does come back I just hope its not too late. I know his relationship wit hat girl will not last and if they do well good 4 them. I'm a lot more educated and mature 2 b fighting wit that girl. Thnx 4 ur comments. - 2 months ago
Question Asker How long did you and your ex where 2gether for? how long did it take 4 her 2 relize how much you are worth?? just curious?? - 2 months ago
Answerer Well, we were together for one and a half years. After we broke up, she started going out with someone in about two weeks. I found someone after 2 months and she realized what she has lost in about a month after that. - 2 months ago

You broke up with him, so if you made a mistake, you have to try to fix it. It is not his job to win you back, but your job to try to win him.

That being said, ask yourself why you broke up with him and if maybe you had a valid reason. Being close to his family is not reason enough to "make things work". This is the time in your life to KNOW you are with the right person or not get serious until you are.

Good Luck,
James

Give him a chance, you broke up with him and he panicked, it's really really common, that's a normal reaction to have when a break-up comes out of nowhere and catches you off guard. He probably got with another girl just because it was painful to sit there thinking about you or he even wanted to make you jealous and realize what you were missing on, anyway I don't know but the thing is he's been great for two years, are you really gonna decide to move on just because you broke up with him and he panicked? And the best thing is he realizes he acted in a mean way and apologizes to you. I think you should tell him that you're sorry, tell him that you were under stress and that's why you broke up but you still love him. I mean talk to him about your feelings and ask him to do the same, I seriously would be sorry if you guys ended your story really just because of a misunderstanding. You need to give him a chance and that means be honest with him, tell him how you feel and let him do the same.

Question Asker Well yea that is why I am confused, because I don't know if he wants to be with her or me... I mean we haven been together for so long like mostly everyday... Well I have tried to talk about it but the first thing he will say is "you were the one that broke up with me"... I jusy don't see how after one week of broken up he starts dating some immature young ugly little girl... - 3 months ago
Answerer You won't know how he really feels if you don't share how you really feel about him first. if you wanna get him back then tell him. - 3 months ago
Question Asker You are right... Well thank you so much for answering my question... Another thing about it is that the first week of us breaking up he treated me like if I was nobody... he would even tell people he didn't love me and stuff like that... Now it has been three weeks and he now apologize and says he care and love me... So I def know he is confused himself... I guess I am just too scared too face the realty in case he really doesn't love me or care about me.... - 3 months ago
Answerer Yeah relationships are always tough, every relationship is different so there's never any advice that will work for sure. You should do what feels right, because you know a lot more about your situation, but it just breaks my heart sometimes when some people refuse to talk about their feelings or give a 2nd chance when it could really save the relationship. I've been that guy, panicking and not always making the best choices because I wasn't experienced, and I wish I had been given a 2nd chance. - 3 months ago
Question Asker Really well I am glad your taking your time to for giving me some advice. 2be honest I was his first girlfriend and I just think now he wants to experience something new and as soon as he relizes that me and her are nothing a like and if he really really loves me then he will come back lookinh for me. I just hope its not too late. Another thing we all live in one world and karma is a bitchExcuse my language but its true.That girl that go in our relationship she new we had been 2gether 4 over 2yr - 3 months ago
Answerer You're welcome. Yeah I know, this feeling of wanting to chop your ex's new girlfriend/boyfriend off is very familiar to me lol
And you see, you're his first girlfriend, so he is really not experienced and doesn't know how to react, he is probably trying to act in a way or following one of his friends' advice or something like this. So I really understand him being in a state of confusion and making mistakes. Anyway my advice is don't kill the new girl lol, after a while I think you kinda get used to the idea. - 3 months ago
Answerer To chop your ex's new girlfriend/boyfriend's *head* off, lol
oh and by the way, I'm saying give him a second chance and be understanding of why he may be making mistakes right now, but after a while, don't be too understanding as well, if he really keeps acting in a bad way then don't blame yourself, it would be just his fault. but from here I really just think he's a nice guy who cares about you but doesn't know what to do and how he should handle the break-up. - 3 months ago
Question Asker Omg your like so great for real... Well actually yes I want to cut her head off because she knew I that my ex and I were together... Hmmm I guess I will just be patien like everyone tells me... - 3 months ago

Moving on does not necessarily mean going out and getting a new boyfriend. Or even looking for one. He hasn't moved on even if he is seeing some new girl. Moving on means really taking care of and getting to know yourself. Reflecting on the relationship and what things you need to work on personally to be healthier in a relationship, whether it is with him or someone else down the line. Find ways to deal with daily life stresses, coping skills. It does sound like he panicked. He isn't connected to this new girl, she is just a time filler. Don't waste your time with a time filler guy, take care of yourself, build better bonds with your family members and girlfriends. These are the people that will help you through life when you do have stresses to deal with so that you don't explode on your boyfriend or husband.

Since you broke up with him, you are the one who has to lose your pride and be the one to mend the relationship. He is waiting for you to come back. He is probably using the girl to get you jealous to make you feel you missed out, especially when he is bringing up old good memories. So talk it out with him that you messed up and want another chance. If he doesn't, it's up to you if you want to be just friends. I'm currently not speaking to my ex who broke my heart because he will say I miss you, love you but never say he wants me back. I cannot deal with someone who says words but never goes about that he wants to be together. And I know this guy still loves you. He is confused whether you love him still and waiting for you to come back. I know I was for months! Love just doesn't stop immediately unless the relationship was boring and he stopped loving you.

Question Asker Thanx 4 answerin my ?... I know he still loves me, but why doesn't he just give me a chance to try 2 fix things up... I apologized and tried 2 talk 2 him, but NO 1 week later after we broke up he start dating someone else. I kind of stop txting me or callin him and he just called me and texted me.He says he doesn't want 2 lose me as his friend and wants me 2 be in his life 4ever.I think once he relizes how much I love him and doesn't work out with that other girl he will b back. I just hope its not 2 late - 3 months ago
