[ - ] Help, no flames please. Was dating a guy I was really into, he ended up going home one weekend and saw/hooked up w/ an ex, told me right away, then a month later, apologized, sent me flowers... so now we are emailing again. I know I can't get back together with him, but I can't find the strength to tell him I think we should not be in contact anymore because I still have strong feelings for him. At the same time, being in this limbo is torture as well. What should I do?? I just can't seem to let it go. :( 10 Replies [ Reply | Watch | More

he's not seeing anyone else... the ex thing I think was just an in the moment bad judgement thing... I guess I feel like I can't get back together because I feel like the trust is broken between us so the relationship could probably never go anywhere. [ Reply | More

To be honest you could always give it another go and see what happens. At least you won't be left wondering. I split with my boyfriend then eventually got back with him and soon worked out that it had been a mistake to get back together. At least I have absolutely no doubts that we shouldn't be together.

i'm a little confused by the timeline here on his apology etc, but... i think you should give it another shot with him. how long were you with him before this happened? if not that long, then def. give another shot. relationships with ex's are weird, and i think while it doesn't excuse the misstep, if he's over that now and into you and your'e into him you should try to make it work.
