Some guys are whipped by their girlfriend coz theyre in love wth her... but can yous still be in love without being whipped by your partner?
If you dont know what whipped means.. "to be controlled by your boyfriend or gf"

I was in a relationship with this guy for over 2 years, and things were great-he treated me like a queen. However, there were problems, and it got to a point I didn't think it was good for us to be together. So, I broke up with him a few weeks ago. (mind you, we had never broken up before)
I'm not looking for another boyfriend or sex from anyone. I like talking to my old guy, but I told him to not wait up for me. There are times where I want to get back and try it over again.
Lately, he's been really distant. I just want to call him or video chat but it never works out. He's always been a shit communicator. But it's worse, and I sense his anger at me for breaking it off. He games for hours with no remorse b/c he doesn't have a girlfriend who 'needs' his attention. I get that. And his car broke, so, he's been working on that after work and getting up early to commute with others.
We really haven't talked much in several weeks, and every time I try to reach out to him recently-I end up feeling jaded, basically, exactly how I did before I broke up with him.
He keeps saying he doesn't understand the break and wants to get back together-but why is he still shit at communicating? Why is nothing getting better? What is going on?
This month, I've been really emotional with my birth control affecting me hard. And all I've wanted is his comfort and companionship, and every time he rebuffs me, my pride is hurt-and I resent him.
