Question Posted Friday September 22 2006, 11:36 pm
I am the type of girl you would probably classify as a "player". It's not that I cheat on my boyfriend (well sometimes but only a peck with another guy but I tell them) it's just that I always get bored of them and dump them and then move on. I'm in high school now though, and I'm looking for something more serious. I've been so rude to all these boys and basically I feel like I've just used them because I wanted a boyfriend. But my ex boyfriend, who I dumped about a month ago because we never talked and I heard he was cheating on me, well his brother just died. And I feel like this is the perfect opportunity for us to get back toghether. I'm not using "oh my gosh i'm sorry your brother died" as an excuse to get him back, but I miss him and I feel like an idiot. How do I talk to him about his brother and about us maybe trying things again without seeming like it's all about what I want??? Please help me! Thanks!!! Also I just want to atleast talk to him and atleast be friends, because since we broke up we havent talked at all =[

But dont play him (you imply you are a player after all), especially with him going through the death of his brother. If it were me, I wouldn't even consider it. Consider how he will feel if his brother dies, you come back, the two of you get back together during the grieving, and THEN you dump him again. Not too good of an idea IMO.

Let him grieve over his brother...dont jump in right away and start flirting or anything...
Just tell him that you are there for him if he ever needs someone...
