Question Posted Friday May 5 2006, 4:34 am

Me and this guy Alex dated before, then he dumped me and said that hes too frigid for me and that im always depressed, when i was only depressed for 2 days because my friend killed herself...Then 1 day ago he said "I shouldnt have dumped you" and stuff and im like "Well lets see if we can go back" and he goes "Huh i cant just 'go back out' with you again..." and im just like "Wow you really cant think" because i thought that he would get the hint of asking me out again... But i think hes too shy or something...i know that he likes me and he knows that i like him, but can someone please help me see that he can ask me out again? Thanks!!!

Are you sure this is a decent guy for you to go out with? Maybe I have misunderstood the situation so forgive me if I am wrong but you're saying that your friend killed herself and that one of the reasons he broke up with you was because you were upset over this???? Either he is incapable of human emotion or he's just the most unsupportive boyfriend in the world. Ever.

If you really want to ask him out again then you can make sure you are light hearted and happy around him as much as possible, so he can see you're not depressed. At the end of the day, however, it needs to be his decision. It sounds as though he is still interested so maybe you just need to ask him what it is he expects of you, if he wants to go out with you but thinks he can't 'just' do it.

This question is so extreme it's making me wonder if it actually is a serious question.

What exactly are you thinking for trying to get back with a guy who broke up with you because you got depressed over a recent death?

Seriously, you don't break up with someone who just had someone close to them die, not get scared and back off as if you can't handle it. It's nothing but insanity to act the way he did about it. So then he calls you back acting like he regrets breaking up with you, so then when you suggest trying again he just says he can't just get back with you again. Ok, why not? He honestly sounds like he's fooling with your feelings at this point.

Now, I understand that you feel lonely and vulnerable because of your friend's suicide, but getting back with a guy who treated you wrong will not fix those feelings. Don't settle for this guy just because you've lost someone. You can have people support you with this. Your friends, your family. But this guy couldn't even be there for you to help you cope with this, so what makes you think that he'll be there for you later on if he decides he wants you back?

He isn't worth your time. Instead of breaking up with you he should have been there for you in your time of need. Since he wasn't, that's one characteristic that makes him an awful boyfriend. I think you should move on. People like that really aren't worth your time.

This guy is a total jerk.
If he can't see that you were upset about your friend commiting suicide, then all he cares about is himself.
I suggest finding a new guy
But if you really wanted to go back out with him, ask him yourself. There is no rule against it.
Or you can just build up the relationship again.
But as I see it, when he came back and said he souldn't have dumped you, he felt a small remorse(sp?). Then I saw how you replied and the way he answered it makes me think that he really doesn't care all about your feelings.
Anyone deserves better than that.

He self-centered. You should have been blue about your friend. It's call "grieving". You should forget about him. Another will come along soon. You sound like a very caring person. He should have appreciated you more. I'm sorry but there isn't anyway to foretell if he'll ask you out again, besides why would you want to go back out with him? There's an old saying "you can either go forward or but you can't go backwards". Would you want to go backwards? Why not go forward to see what blessings life has in store for you?
