Is he still in love with me because he’s saying all this?
Question Posted Thursday October 4 2018, 7:53 am
“You’ll always be in my heart, don’t forget that” he said after we broke up. Is that a fancy way of saying, you’re my back up or something? Can anyone explain please? We’re in our 20’s.
Much appreciated

Dragonflymagic answered Friday October 12 2018, 7:28 pm: The heart can have feelings for many people, not just ones mate. the heart holds love for his mother father, grandparents, any siblings, close buddy friends and his saying you will be always in his heart means that he will care about you, obviously, not as a mate or back up, just as a friend, or maybe like an extended family member. Sometimes, it means the person wants you to be in their life, but not as a lover. Sometimes, they say and mean this but a new mate might not be understanding of his keeping in touch as a friend, especially if you once were lovers and he may have to stop keeping in touch Lastly, a person might say such a thing, not because they truly mean it but to make a break up not feel as bad for you. Guys don't like to see females get upset or cry and will sometimes say things like this, but not the actual words he used. My guess is that he is looking for someone with a future wife in mind and just didn't feel something with you. This doesn't mean you are lacking anything and unfit for anyone. People are complex and therefore, not just any nice person will make a good life mate. He may still be trying to figure out who that is but is sure when someone is not the right one. this also means that you will be the best choice for another guy.
