boyfriend broke up with me, but i think we could get back together.
Question Posted Thursday April 19 2012, 9:04 pm
Alright so my boyfriend (well.. now ex-boyfriend :/) broke up with me on Tuesday night. He said he was so nervous to come over and do it and he was shaken up. He said he has been thinking about what to do for a little bit and even when he said he wasn't thinking about it, he was thinking about it. He said he made lists, wrote things down, cried at night, read my notes that I gave him, but he said he thinks it's best that we be done right now and if it's meant to be, we will be together.
It didn't end bad for a beakup. I said "I can't hate you, I can't be mad at you, I can't call you a dick or a douchebag or an ass. All I hope for you is that you find happiness because you deserve to be happy and you deserve the very best. And if you need anything you know I'm here for you and my door is always open for you." Then we hugged and I gave him a kiss on the forehead. He said that killed him to hear that and he doesn't deserve it and I deserve to he happy.. he was crying a lot .. He kept apologizing and saying he is sorry. He hates hurting me. I know he is hurt by it.. he said he will always be here for me and if I need him to call or text. He said he will still bend over backwards for me
He has only had 3 girlfriends, including me and I know his last two ended up bad. I know he has been hurt in the past and it kills me that people hurt him because he is the sweetest guy I have ever met in my entire life. I keep thinking that maybe since I was the first person to actually give a damn and who actually cared more about him then about themselves, that maybe without knowing it, it freaked him out. He has been confused lately. And I do think it's because he was scared because he found someone who really and truly cared about him.
I keep thinking that maybe this summer when we are both at home and we have time for ourselves, space, and everything, we come back to school and we can work things back out. He said that it isn't me, that I never did anything wrong and that's why deep down I feel like we can work through this. We have an online class together next year and he said that we would study and whatnot together.
That makes me think that maybe we can try and work things back out. But I don't know. I've never cared for someone as much as I care for him. He's so different from anyone that I've ever met. It kills me knowing that I may have lost him.
I told him that I still want him in my life and he said I know and I want to still be in your life too. He said I was never a bad girlfriend and to never think that. He said he is always going to worry about me and he still cares an awful lot. He said he didn't mean to make me feel this hurt, not at all. He kept saying he's truly very sorry for everything. Idk something is telling me deep down that we can work through it. There is something about him that is different. I know a good thing when I see it. and with him I see it, feel it, and know it.
I guess what I'm asking is if you guys think there is something still there between us or what?
so then why did he.. if he loved and cared about you that much there has to be a reason that he did what he did..
and as far as getting back together. it has to be 2 sided. not just you wanting it. sorry if that's harsh. but you cant sit waiting for him. when there is no garentee that you will. [ Jasmine23's advice column | Ask Jasmine23 A Question ]

Don't wait around or get your hopes up waiting for a guy. If a guy wants to be with you he will make it happen I truly believe in that. He's right you deserve to be happy, but don't depend on him to make you happy. Make yourself happy and do what's right for you. I'm sure he still cares about you but in a friend way and its great that you guys are on good terms after the break up. [ AdviceMistress's advice column | Ask AdviceMistress A Question ]
