6 months later and we're finally back to were we started :)

After my boyfriend and I broke up he ended up having very little interest in talking or seeing me. I have no idea how or why it happened, but two months ago he started to really try at a relationship. For a while he maintained he had no feelings and that we'd never be together. He said he really liked being friends and was afraid of getting back together and having all of that change. We're really good friends now, we talk all day, we hang out with each other at least three times a week. About two weeks ago he admitted to still having feelings and agreed to talk about getting back together.

 

Hopin' for the best, but not expecting anything. I never thought we'd be friends ago and I definitely didn't expect he'd still have feelings. Just a little update none of the "tricks" worked, just time. I wouldn't have believed it six months ago, but I'm glad all the spite and tension is over! Regardless of whether or not we end up together!

Hopefully things work out for you. As long as you both took the time alone to look inside, and work on the issues that hurt the past relationship, you guys have a chance.

 

I wish you the best no matter what the outcome.

That's good to hear. I totally agree with you about the 'tricks' for getting back together not working. If they love you and want to be with you, it wont matter how crazy and pathetic you were during the breakup.

 

Just stay reserved, take things slow, spend time on yourself, and figure out what you can do to fix the issues the two of you had as a couple.

 

...and don't sleep with him. It will ruin everything. Probably.

We were having sex for a little bit, but I recently told him that I don't think we should while we aren't together because I want to know he likes me and not just the sex. He says he likes both, but I'd just rather know for sure and get the committment along with it!

 

Thank you guys for your replies

I think Orianne said it best: take it slowly, don't rush, talk about what went wrong, see if it's possible to be understanding of the mistakes that were made, and above all, always be honest with each other.

Maybe in your case, a breakup is what you both needed to see that you are right for one another. Frienship is very important; you have to like each other before loving!! So happy that you are working on things:)
