Question Posted Thursday October 28 2010, 10:35 am
Hi all
My ex boyfriend broke up with me 4 months ago, I still really wanted to be with him but he didn't show any signs of wanting to get back together, although he said he "still wanted to be with me" and he "still loved me" He was upset when I said I didn't want to speak anymore, I felt I couldn't move on if we still spoke. I started seeing a new guy recently, and my ex boyfriend found out. He text me saying "I know you are seeing other guys so there is nothing I can do but you never know what will happen" I said what do you mean? He said "Things change, you don't know what will happen in the future. You could break up with him and then we get back together"
Why would you say that to someone you don't want to be with????

Really, if he wanted to be with you, he had his chance, so he doesn't mean it. [ xokristabelle's advice column | Ask xokristabelle A Question ]

But then when he saw that you are really moving on and you are actually dating someone else, he immediately regretted that he didn't take you back when he could have. It's this human nature, that you have to confront the person with the situation for them to believe that its true or possible, like he would have never imagined that you'd move on so fast, and he probably thought that you'd get back together or that you'd keep trying to get him back, but when the opposite happened, he didn't know what to do, so he told you that.
Look, if you don't want to be with him anymore, and if that new guy is worth it and is a good person, then stick with him, and just let go of your ex, and ignore what ever he says, he had his chance to get u back, and if he really did love you, he would've gotten over his ego or whatever and agreed to take you back, instead of acting cool and wanting you to beg him to take you back. You did well when you stood your ground, first you gave him a chance to take you back, and when he wouldn't , you said not to speak anymore, and then you moved on, and that's great, now don't let anything stop you.
