My ex boyfriend broke up with me 2 months ago. We went NC for several weeks, then he called me up out-of-the-blue one day and we ended up speaking for an hour. We started texting each other every day for the past three weeks, and each time we talk on the phone it winds up being at least an hour. I've always let him initiate contact on these phone calls.

 

Through this I found out he's gone on a few dates with someone, as have I.

 

We were originally going to meet up earlier this week for the first time since the BU to grab ice cream and catch a movie. He had to back out of those plans and instead proposed that we drink at his place this Friday (today) as long as I was "okay with couching it". I warily accepted.

 

I am unsure of what do to, though. Do I stick with this plan, or do I cancel on him? I'm not sure if he just wants an alcohol-infused booty call, or if he is serious about me sleeping on his couch.

 

Help???

If you want sex with a Cheer's kicker, this sounds like a great path. It's not a path to relationship reconciliation, IMO.

 

I'd reschedule a public get-together and see how it goes. Nothing wrong with a simple dinner out where you can 'catch up' and perhaps resolve some of your relationship-ending issues. Most people like to skip that part and just have sex since sex is a lot more pleasurable. Up to you.

if he intends to date you - have him ask you OUT.

 

a drinking night is more likely to lead to to being mad at yourself for not requiring more.

 

it's not enough effort - for a man - if he's interested in you long term. he could have suggested a walk, run or a bike ride?

 

he's making no effort... likely he's asking for sex only - but you knew that...

You know, when I first read the title of this thread, I thought to myself, "Wow, two months out of a break-up and her ex wants to meet up for drinks at his place. You are crazy!" And now that I've read the thread completely, I thought to myself, "Wow, they really are crazy!"

 

And I don't mean any harm in that, but honestly. This just screams of possible future drama. If you 'warily accepted' to his offer for drinks, don't you think that's your conscience telling you something? Trust that instinct. And why did he all of a sudden switch up a perfectly innocent ice cream/movie date (which he backed out on) to a perhaps-not-so-innocent drink date? And at his place? Nuh uh. If I were you, I'd politely back out of the drink date by saying you don't really feel like drinking after all and suggest something else for you guys to do... sober. In the public. As in, not anywhere near his place.

 

Because after only 2 months post-break up, I'm pretty sure when you accepted, he subconsciously said to himself, "Wow! Only 2 months past the break up and they're already comfortable with getting drunk with me again at my house. I wonder what else they'd be comfortable with... :confused:" So yeah. Try a more public date. If he throws a little fit about it and insist you come over for drinks, then you have your answer. Do this and, 99% of the time, you won't regret it. :)

 

Edit: Sorry tlsguy, never fully read your username to see if you were a guy/girl. My mistake. :( But the advice remains the same!

Hi,

 

I think it is difficult to say at this time. My thinking is he wants you back to his side again. If you still love him and question yourself if it is worth it to go back to his side once more.
