Citizen Erased Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 Okay so my ex, let's call him B. We broke up about 3 years ago in pretty bad circumstances. To cut a long story short, I developed feelings for my now current boyfriend and ended my relationship with B. B was my first love, my first almost everything, and I was his. He was devastated, as I made no secret of the reasons why I was ending the relationship. I was only 17 and I handled it really really bad. He actually had to go to counseling and everything, which I feel terrible about still. I left him alone because I knew I would only make things worse, and I hadn't seen him until about 6 months ago. Now, whenever I go out, he is there. We have friends in common, and they ALL know about our relationship, breakup etc. Quite obviously I have moved on, as he has, but our friends are making it really hard. And he is really quiet around me, he will only look me at me if he thinks I won't notice, and he will murmur a hello to me, that's all. I don't want to push him, I screwed him up pretty badly and even though it has been 3 years, I dont want to make it hard on him. So... what do I do? I can't not hang out with my friends, but any look I give him, thing I say to him etc is studied by our friends, which is really hard and makes it impossible for us to be comfortable around each other. He is like a scared puppy, how do I make him realize I want nothing from him? I don't even know how to start a conversation with him that won't end in him running away from me Okay so this is really High School but I'm still a teen for another month and 2 days so give me a break
birdie Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 if it was so bad then maybe an apology would be a good start. then perhaps both of you would relax. don't know what you said to him but I'd imagine it plays on his mind

Well when I broke up with him, he unfortunately saw me kissing my now bf about 2 days after we had broken up Like up against the wall, hand up skirt getting into it sorta deal. Before that we had been civil but from then on we haven't had one conversation at all. And really, I don't blame him, I broke his heart
