This guy that I met about a year ago got my # and started texting me a lot, but I was already in a relatinship at the time. When my relationship ended, about two weeks later he asked me to hang out with him. Well, it ended up we started dating but only for a month and then he dumped me and gave me a stupid reason for it. We still talked after that, but only as friends.
Just recently, he asked if I was seeing anyone and I told him about the guy I just started dating a couple weeks ago. That's when he told me the "true" reason he dumped me before, in which it was not really his fault, but he was extremely apologetic. And then he asked if we could start over, but I told him I had moved on, and so he said that whatever happens will happen.
The problem is, now he texts/calls me pretty consistently throughout the day, as if I am all he thinks about. I think he may just be trying really hard to get me just because he wants a girlfriend, not because he really misses me. But I begin to think twice about it because if he just wanted a girlfriend then he wouldn't be spending all this time waiting on me because there's plenty of girls willing to hook up with a guy around here. I've only been on a couple dates with the guy I just met. Should I consider giving my ex another shot?
Additional info, added Tuesday July 1 2008, 6:37 pm: Originally he lied about why he broke up with me because he said I seemed a lot like a sister to him and it was weirding him out and he didn't want to get too involved incase he couldn't get over it...
But then he told me that was just an excuse to break up with me because this other girl that was jealous of us(who I'd met before and it's perfectly possible that she would do this) threatened to blackmail him if he didn't break up with me. Still it could be BS... so idk. Want to answer more questions in the Relationships category?

Just remember that he did dump you and you said so yourself he may just want a girlfriend and thats why he is trying to get back with you. But he could also miss you, I couldn't tell you because I'm not him, go with your gut and with your heart. If you really like the guy that you are with then you should stay with him, but if you feel like you miss your ex and aren't ready to move on then give him another shot.

You said it yourself; you've moved on. Plus it would be pretty rude to your current boyfriend to just get back with your ex.
But I guess if you're really feeling that you like your ex more than your current boyfriend, then go for it. Just make sure that what you do is fair to your current boyfriend and fair to yourself.
