My boyfriend from last year broke up with me for his ex girlfriend. We were only going out for about a month, but now him and his ex just broke up again and now he wants to go back out with me. I'm not sure yet, I mean i really do like him but when he broke up with me i just felt like dying, i didn't know what to do with myself. i kind of want to go back out with him just to get back at him, but i know i'll end up falling for him again.

Maybe he did realize he was wrong and wants you back, but maybe things just didn't work out between him and her and, not wanting to be alone, he came to you. If your heart says go for it, then go for it, but you need to sit him down first and explain that you won't be his "back-up". In order to be happy in a relationship you both need to know you're #1 to the other.
Honestly.. this guy sounds confused and indecisive. He also can't seem to commit.. he's been paddeling between the two of you! Wouldn't you say the other girl gave him a second chance and it didn't work out?
If you're still unsure of your feelings tell him you jsut need some time to figure out if you really want to be with him after how he hurt you. He should respect that and if he waits for you it will show his willingness to commit this time and your heart can guide you from there..

If you want to go back out with him, do it.
If you're only going to "fall for him again", why not try it again? Maybe he realized he made a mistake by breaking up with you, and that's why he wants a second chance now. I'm speaking from personal experience here, people mess up, and sometimes all they need is a second chance.
Just explain to him how much it hurt when he broke up with you before, and let him know if he does it again, that's it and he's done.

But hey, there's nothing wrong with giving a relationship another chance, so long as it didn't end over something like abuse or cheating.
KlutzyKim answered Tuesday July 1 2008, 11:01 pm: Well to me it sounds like you are his rebound girl
I'm sorry if thats a little harsh but it does
I wouldnt go back out with him
But I'm not you
Seriously, know one should sit here and tell YOU what to do with your love life
YOU make the choice from your heart and what sounds right
Hope I helped
