So, lately I've had alot of guy problems going on. I'll start with my ex-boyfriend, Brett. We were together for 5 months, and what I have for him will probably never go away. We've been broken up for almost two months and he already has a new girlfriend. I know 5 months isn't very long, but it was my longest relationship and I think that may be part of the reason why I have so many strong feelings for him. I've tried moving on, and for awhile, I was talking to this guy named Alex. We've hung out pretty much everyday for a month. A few days ago, he was at my house and we were watching a movie and we kind of got "in the moment", I guess you could say, and we had sex. There was this other guy, Dustin, who really likes me. I think I may have led him to think I have the same feelings for him. We were supposed to hang out for new year's but instead I went to a friend's house. She had a few guys over, and one of them was this guy named Tyler. He's really hott and I've always had a "thing" for him. Not so much a crush, just I've always thought he was incredibly gorgeous. We were laying down together and he had his arm around me and we ended up making out. On top of all of these guys..I like this other guy named Justin. We've never really hung out lately, but we talk all the time online and he calls me sometimes. So here's my question. I don't know what to do with Brett, Alex, Dustin, Tyler, or Justin. I know I need to get over brett, and tell Dustin the truth (that I don't really like him like that). But do you think Tyler likes me? Or was he just being the typical guy and "getting some" from me? And what about Justin? Should I just try to get over him, or keep talking to him? And what about Alex? Have I led him on too? He doesn't have "serious feelings" for me..we're just "friends with benefits". hmm, I'm so confused with everything. Sorry if this was complicated to understand.

Maybe because your break up your trying to replace your ex eith another guys affection, but you still find your self wanting your ex in the end. if theres any chance for you two then you should call and try and see if your ex still has feelings for you. sometimes couples break up for stupied little things so if this is the case you should try and fix it.

Teza answered Sunday January 1 2006, 6:20 pm: I think that you are using these guys to get over your ex. I don't meaning using in a bad way or anything, but you just want to get over Brett so badly that you don't really seem to care about another guy in that way. 5 months isn't a long time but when you start to have feelings for someone like that in a short amount of time, that's something and it's hard to let go. I don't know why you guys broke up but just try to forget about him and a good way to do it.. metting and hanging out with different guys and you already are doing that. In a way, it might seem to be working for you. I don't think you have strong feelings for Alex. You can't take back what you've done and hopefully you don't regret it because you would just feel really guilty. Dustin, he seems to be like a nice guy but you shouldn't keep him waiting any longer. Tell him the truth. Yeah it might be hard for you, but you'd feel a lot better when you tell him you only like him as a friend. That might hurt his feelings, but you're doing the right thing. It's hard to tell if Tyler likes you. I mean all you guys did was make out but if you guys hung out more, maybe then you could tell if there is something between you guys. You want to get over Justin and Brett? You can't just start to like every guy you are with and then if something doesn't work out and then try to get over them. You're making it harder for yourself. You don't have to make a decision on who you want because this isn't any kind of competition. Take your time and figure out who you really like. As time goes by you will be getting over Brett and everything will make more sence. Flirt with the guys but don't take it too far with them because it will hurt you. Make sure the guy likes you too before you get into anything serious because you might get hurt again. Take your time, flirt with them, hang out, be friends, talk and then if you ever seem to like one.. go after him. [ Teza's advice column | Ask Teza A Question ]
