I went out with a guy Sept-Dec, and it ended very badly. I got really disinterested halfway through, but kept convincing myself I liked him, so I wouldn't have to deal with it. Finally, I couldn't take it anymore, and I basically started ignoring him. Not intentionally, it was just hard to pretend to be excited to see him. He only took about a week of this before he broke up with me. Even though I had wanted out, I was really sad, especially when I heard he was dating someone else. I got comepletely over it very quickly though.
A couple weeks into x-mas break, he called me and told me he'd screwed up really badly, and he asked me back out. I was totally disinterested by that point, so I flat-out said no. When school was back in, he wrote me a note about how he owed me an explanation and how he knew I said no the second time because he'd hurt me, and other similar bullshit. His ego just shined through so well. I wrote him a nasty letter explaining that I had said no because I didn't like him and for that reason only. I told him about how I actually lost interest halfway into the relationship. It was a pretty scary letter. We haven't spoken since.
I assumed he was over me by now. But the other day, I was talking to his good friend who told me that my exboyfriend still thinks he's in love with me. He says he thinks he screwed it up really bad, and he knows I hate him now. (not really true)
He's moving pretty far away right after school ends. I'd really like to talk to him face to face before then, but I don't know what to say, if anything. I'd like to apologize, and I'd like to clear the air. I don't know if it would do more harm than good, though. Suggestions?

Tell him that you weren't trying to mean or anything you just weren't interested. Try to stress that you are sorry for the way things turned out and for the way you acted. Just let all your feelings out and be honest. Even it doesn't work out it will make you feel better to know that you at least tried.

In the end it will be for the good. [ AlittleBitNaughty4u's advice column | Ask AlittleBitNaughty4u A Question ]
