Question Posted Monday July 23 2007, 10:44 pm

ok so...i am completely out of ideas and frankly done trying to figure out my problem. There was a guy i dated about a year ago. We dated for a while and i really truly cared about him. We broke up after a huge misunderstanding. He was dating someone else like 2 weeks later. But we never stopped talking. He kept calling and telling me he still cared about me...We have been hanging out alot lately and he talks about us dating again but we still havent gotten back together. Any ideas on how i can move it along...or tell if he is even actually sincere about wanting to get back together?? Thanks so much!

If this guy is still dating this other girl and seeing you at the same time, it appears that he may just be stringing you along - perhaps in the hope of "having his cake and eating it".

You need to be direct with him and tell him that if he truly wants the both of you to start dating again then he has to let this other girl down gently and immeidately! If he tries to squirm his way out of it - run for the hills. He is playing you.

If he dumps this other girl I would advise you to take things slowly at first.

And just so you know - a woman's intuition is always right - you just need to learn how to listen to it.

Hope this helped.

If you want to move things along, you're going to have to be more assertive. Tell him exactly how you feel and tell him what you would like to happen. If he is being sincere about getting back together, he'll jump at the chance and probably feel lucky that you made the first move. If he's not being sincere, you might see him trying to stall things or possibly putting conditions on how things will go between the two of you.

I don't know what the misunderstanding was that broke the two of you up, but listen to your intuition. It's usually correct. If you have doubts that he's not being sincere, you may want to listen to those suspicions and figure out what's going on with you before you try to get back together with him. Even though you obviously like this guy, there's no sense being in a relationship with someone you can't trust 100%.

Good luck. :)
