I was with my recent ex-boyfriend for 1yr and 2 months. We had a great relationship, no fights, got along well. In the past few weeks, he had a female friend who's name was coming up a lot. I had never heard of her before. When I asked about her, he said she was a fellow "classmate" from one of his college classes. During this time, I started noticing that he was being more distant and wanted to hang-out with me less. I find out later, through other sources, that he was spending a lot of time with this girl, and talking to her on the phone a lot.

During the holiday break, we went to his hometown to visit his family and he fought with me the entire trip. When we returned from the trip, he broke-up with me giving me the excuse that he's only 27 yrs old and does not want to have a serious relationship. He needs time for "himself" to do the things he hasn't been able to do. I have a strong inclination that he decided to break-up because he didn't want to officially "cheat" on me with this girl, but he figured he should be single in order to mess around with other girls. He still calls me and wants to hang-out with me, and it seems like he's keeping me around because he's confused about what he wants.

I'm almost sure, he's going to eventually want me back, and my question is, should I give him a 2nd chance? He technically didn't cheat on me, but he was emotionally attached to this girl, to the point that he left me. What do you all think?

It sounds like he gave in to the temptation of being single again so he fool around again. Chances are though that he might come to his senses and realize he messed up if things don't work out with his new girl. I'd say don't wait around for him though. If he knows you are meeting other guys he might come to his senses faster, and if he doesn't then you would have already moved on. Just give it a little time to get over him and then get back out in the single world.

P.S. I am 23 and in a serious relationship, thinking about getting engaged, so 27 is not a real excuse for staying single.

Question Asker Thanks for the advice. You're right, he gave in to the temptation. And being 27 yrs old, does not really mean that he's young, and hasn't lived life. - 7 months ago

No. Plain and Simple. He will come to his senses when he realizes the grass isn't always greener on the other side. I know its hard, but do not talk to this guy. He will keep you on the back burner until he finishes having fun. I am Sorry, but 27 is not that young. It just sounds like something new and exciting came along and he wanted to see if it would be something he would like. Have you asked him if he has been with this girl or if he is still hanging out with her? He did cheat. Emotional attachment to another girl is cheating. just avoid him. You can do it. He will see you were the better choice. By then you will have moved on and found your own exciting guy.

random-ren asked 3 days ago

Yes, most of the time! I really wish I had a boyfriend/girlfriend!

A little, because I feel left out.

Not really...

Nope! I have too much fun being single!

What's there to be annoyed about?

What is your favorite outfit for a night out with friends?
Tight pair of jeans with a light colored top and most likely a top under it.. I like to layer my clothes...
A nice pair of boots to top it off.. give me a little height

How do you style your hair and do your make-up?
My hairs pretty shirt but Id blow dry it so it has a little height to it.. and show off my highlights. I'm not to big in make-up I wear it once in a while.. A little eye liner some eye shadow.. and of course lip gloss and finish t with some dangling ear rings

Do I have style?
