Hopeful30 Posted December 31, 2010 Posted December 31, 2010 Long story short. Broke up for good reason but stayed friends (no, not with benefits). This worked well until I started dating someone new. I avoided his calls (he called every few days) because he happened to call when I was out with this new boy. The new guy felt that if I didn't want to get back with my ex, that there should be no reason to talk to him. I was stupid and I listened. Anyways my ex called from a different number, so I answered. I was honest with him and told him the whole truth. He was upset and cut me off immediately. I've tried reconciliating with him, but he is angry and upset with me, he keeps blowing me off. He tells me that there is nothing to talk about anymore, and if I really cared about the friendship I wouldn't have ignored him like I did. I tried telling him there is nothing wrong with keeping in touch, but he told me there is no point. What do I do?
tigressA Posted December 31, 2010 Posted December 31, 2010 What do you do? You accept the circumstances and move on. He doesn't want you back in his life now, so what you want or want to do is not going to change a damn thing.
welikeincrowds Posted December 31, 2010 Posted December 31, 2010 Tell your baby ex that you made a genuine mistake and to do this. It probably won't work though. Maybe you should just give him space instead. You really did make a mistake in blowing him off.
Author Hopeful30 Posted December 31, 2010 Author Posted December 31, 2010 Are you still seeing the new guy? I guess the answer to your question depends on if you really want to get back together with your old boyfriend, then you of course have to stop dating other guys. Also, you have to decide if your dating the new guy (if indeed he is still in the picture) is more important than having a friendship/reconciliation with your exboyfriend. If your friendship/relationship with your old boyfriend means more to you, then stop seeing the new guy or other guys in general, and let your ex know that. No I am not seeing the new guy anymore. But that shouldn't matter. If we are going to be friends, I should be able to date other people anyways. I don't want to get back with my ex and rekindle our relationship. I just want him back in my life, like how it was before I f*cked up.
FryFish Posted December 31, 2010 Posted December 31, 2010 This is a BAD idea... Let your ex be your EX... There are very few guys(with backbones) that are going to be any kind of cool with you being close friends with an ex.
joeLove Posted December 31, 2010 Posted December 31, 2010 Are you sure that deep inside, you don't want this ex-bf back? Honestly now ...
Author Hopeful30 Posted December 31, 2010 Author Posted December 31, 2010 Are you sure that deep inside, you don't want this ex-bf back? Honestly now ... Well in my heart I do want him back. But our lives are very different and it won't work out in the end anyways. Eventually we would part ways anyways, which is one of the reasons why we stuck to the break up and remained friends. I really enjoy his company, I enjoy being around him and I love him so much. That's why I regret losing him the way I did.
