asianqt Posted September 3, 2010 Posted September 3, 2010 My boyfriend broke up with me around the beginning of June, > and we went out for 1.5 years. We shared so many memories, both good and bad. I honestly still love him. I went through lots of depression and > problems during our relationship, so it weighed our relationship down. I > was constantly stressing with schoolwork and what not. He is the clingy > type so he never wanted to be away from me. We spent like 24/7 together, > and would always talk, chat, hang out. We were each other's best friends. > Over time, he felt like I pushed him away, and he always assured me he > would be there so I thought we were okay. But since summer started, I > went on vacation for a week with my family, and I told him we should have > a break with less talking during that week because I wanted to relax and I > wanted to miss him. He was always around and I felt like we never had time apart. Turns out, when I came back, he had a new girl he was > talking to. He soon asked her out, and now they are going out. I did the > wrong thing and showed him my sadness and anger. He told me it was the > end. A few weeks later, we talk again. He tells me how his new > girlfriend doesn't give him butterflies and he doesn't think they're going > to last a super long time, but he didn't want to break up with her. He > tells me he isn't that into her and she is way too clingy (that was sorta > opposite from me because I let him have his space, but i was still there) > and that he was starting to become impatient with her, but he really likes > her. I asked him, why is he with her if he told me all that stuff, and > his answer was simply: i like her a lot. He admits that he still loves me > and misses me. He doesn't even know what he wants at this point. He wants > to be with me, but at the same time, he doesn't want to break up with her. > He is enjoying the "honeymoon period" of their relationship. He told me > we can be together later if it was meant to be, but not right now. I'm so > lost and confused with what to do. I'm being his friend right now, and > I'm accepting the fact he's with another girl, even though I strongly love > him. I'm staying in contact with him, and I won't give up on him. People > are telling me to move on, and they're telling me how i'm his second > option, but they don't understand. I don't want to move on. I do care > about him, and I want to be together again. At this point, I'm not sure > what to do. I know only time will tell. I think he is afraid I won't > treat him right, and he might lose his new girlfriend if he comes back to > me. At the same time, he still wants me here for him. I don't understand > what I am to him. It's been three months now, but I am slowly moving on. I believe i'm in the "acceptance stage" where I still have feelings for him, but it doesn't make me sad anymore. I've become a happier person, but I miss him sometimes. I told him I was moving on and he got mad at me. I told him i won't let him string me along, but he says he misses me and all this stuff. He says he felt like we had a strong relationship and we were completely compatible, and he's not really compatible with his new girlfriend, but she gives him all the attention he wants, which is what I didn't do. Do you think his rebound relationship will come to an end?
