ex boyfriend troubles: we broke up because i lied to him... now i want him
Question Posted Wednesday October 3 2012, 3:37 pm
so basically i had a boyfriend for a year, and we split up recently. i constantly felt like he was trying to make me jealous, but would brush it off because i was blinded by love. we broke up because i lied to him, because i felt threatened by other women. i know what i did was wrong, but now i want to know if there is a good way to apologize and keep our friendship? either that or make him want me again? im so confused, and either need ways to get him back...or ways to move on....please help me...

We tend to think of all the wonderful things that we remember about them and shared. I wonder if he really was trying to make you jealous. Some guys get a rush from getting a girl jealous and some guys are blatant flirts who think it should be ok for them to flirt with other women even tho they're in a committed relationship with you. So try to think logically--not emotionally. Did he ever actually give you real reason to be jealous? If he ever did, then don't go crawling back to him. If he didn't then you probably owe him an apology but don't beg/plead or grovel. If he want to forgive you, then he needs to forgive you and that needs to be the end of it. He doesn't need to punish you, I'm sure he's probably told you little white lies too. Girls sometimes get alittle dramatic when we try to get guys to take us back, I'd caution you to avoid taunting, stalking, calling repetitively, texting more than once, begging, blaming, cutting him down, or justifying your actions. Simply apologize, accept responsibility for your actions and let him know that you still care for him and if he ever can forgive you, you'd like a second chance. Good Luck.
