Look, just because you and him didn't work out as a couple, doesn't mean that you can't just be friends. Me and my ex of 13 years just went out to the movies together today to see "Silent Hill", I paid, he drove. We hadn't hung out for 3 years! I gotta tell you though, we had a blast just hanging out and being friends. I bought lunch after at "Jack-n-the-Box", and he came over to my house to eat it. It was the first time he had ever come to see where I lived since we separated. We have a daughter together, and for her sake, we discussed it, and came to the conclusion that, even though we parted on bad terms, we could set that aside and be friends. She was very happy to know we were being nice to each other. I would never have an intimate relationship with him again, but as a friend, he is a very good guy and a wonderful daddy. Do what your heart tells you. You know in your gut whether or not it would be a good idea to hang out with him again. Just remember that ex'es are ex'es for a reason...it didn't work out. Friendships are always nice to have though if at all possible. Good luck sweetie.

Sitting around, wondering & doing nothing won't get either of you back together. If you think it's worthwhile to try again, make the first move & see what happens. I'm not saying go all out and tell him outright. That's just me & I'd much prefer the guy to take the lead to let me know where he's headed. Just call and say Hi or leave some kind of messsage that let him know. See what he does next. Be prepared for the worst though as he may have moved on. At least you won't spend your life wondering.

Why did you break up in the first place? How long have you known each other? How long has it been since you broke up?  Do you want him back?  These are all questions you should be asking yourself.  Then perhaps you'll know if it's right for you to pursue him again or to just forget him and move on. :)

your situation seems like a very complicated one.. maybe the next time he says that he loves you, you should ask him why u arent together then. i dont think its a good idea to continue to do gf bf stuf with him unless you start dating again. he might be just using u and u really dont want to get deeper than u already are if he is. maybe theres a different reason he broke up with u.. fam? but i dont noe. if i loved someone else i dont think i would be able to date another person at the same time.

Honey,....MOVE ON! Your ex does not deserve you! You have found a guy who treats you right, so stay with him!

I think the fact that he likes you is a good sign that he may want to go out with you again. Just make sure you apologize and make it up to your loved one and give him time, you don't wanna push. He needs to feel that you can be trusted and since he was the one hurt, he needs to feel sort of in control. Make sure that you show how sorry you were, prove how much you care about him with actions and keep the communication ongoing and strong. When everything simmers down, if he still doesn't ask you out again, try opening up how you feel and what you wish to happen.

Have you told him you want him back? Also, I think it would be a good idea if you told him you can't stop thinking about him. Make sure to say your sorry and that you were confused. Tell him that you will not hurt him if he gives you a second chance.\nGood Luck Girl!

There's no specific time that one should wait after 6 years of being with the same person.  I would suggest you take time to focus on you for a little while.  Don't be in a big hurry to jump right back into dating.  Use your time now to get your life together and do things that you enjoy.  Mr or Ms Right will come along eventually.

Despite what he said, it doesn't sound like he is ready to get back together with you.  It doesn't sound like he can put in the time he would need for you to have a meaningful relationship.\n\nI would forget him and move on.

It depends on who broke up with who but you could contact him, but just don't sound too desperate. Just act friendly, ask how he's doing and maybe you two can hang out at some point. Then let him make the next move.

It could be either. Relationships are tricky. Especially when it's hard to break the chains between the two of you. If it's been over for 6 months though, and he has not asked to get back together with you, then he might just be looking for and craving the attention and good feelings that you give him. Remember, you are not his consolation prize. I would tell the guy to either shape up or ship out. I'm sure he did leave something great, - I'm also sure you deserve someone who knows what they want. My ex did this to me for a long time and I hung on because I still loved him very much - but he wasn't still in love, he just wanted the attention and affection that I gave him. He wanted me to keep his ego afloat. Stop giving this guy attention and see what he does. Then if he starts to call and come over, either don't let him, or tell him to make a choice. You need communication. Ask him what his intentions are.\nRespect,\n-laura

Look at it this way: if he wanted to "go out with you" he would have said yes when you asked him.  Try to ignore him from now on and see what his reaction is.\ngood luck sugar

LOL, well just tell him you really like that date and ask if he enjoyed it or not. If he did, he might ask you out again. Or you can just say, i wonder if we have a next time.

sounds like you are both quite young & placing too much importance on these words WAY TOO SOON\nalso you should be saying these things without expecting him to repeat the words back to  you\nif you ahve only just started dating then take your time & if things are meant to be then ""love "" will develop between you

Did he give you a reason for the break-up?  I'm thinking that he doesn't want to rush into another relationship right now because he is still nursing a broken heart and doesn't want it broken again.  Give him so time.  The good news is that he still keeps in touch with you. Let him know that you're still interested and let him call the shots unless it looks like he's calling all the wrong plays.  In that case, put your foot down and tell him that you want him back but you agree to take it slow.  Let him know that you love him and don't want to hurt him.
