A female United Kingdom age 36-40, anonymous writes:

I have posted on here before and got some good advice.

My ex bf of 3 years broke up with 1 month ago and started dating a new woman a day after we broke up. He met her while we we were out clubbing together and they had known each other on and off for 8 years.

He says he has always wanted to go out with her since the day he met her but she was always in a relationship. That night she told us she'd broken up with her bf of 6 years and he said his heart skipped a beat.

He says he no longer is in love with me (Which I can believe as he cheated on me with a different woman before we broke up). He broke up with me in March, then told me he cheated, then said he still loved me but needed space. I caught him at it with her and he begged me back. We were supposed to be working on us when he met this new woman.

Well my problem is we have a house together which is currently being rented out to pay the mortgage and when moving out day came he patted me on the bum. My mum says don't read anything into it but I can't help but wonder. Patting somones bum is flirting in my eyes and his sister who was helping with the moving of furniture confided in me he is not coping well with having to take responsibilty of her 4 yr old daughter. Before moving day when we've met about the house he won't allow me to even touch his leg.

Also when he drove me back to my parents he asked for a cuddle to say goodbye, normally he asks for a hug. A cuddle sounds romantic.

Do you think he still has feelings for me or is just messing with my head.

goingnuts agony auntAs much as it hurts, I would move on. It sounds like your ex has a history of cheating; and although time changes everything... Maybe you need to give him the time to grow up and become a committed man. You sound like a good girl; you don't need someone who is going to disrespect you like that. As for the cuddles and the hugs goodbye; I'm sure he does miss you, but you can't let him have his cake and eat it too. I've been given this advice lately, and I hate these words... But you can either use them... Or leave them. I've been told to wait it out and see what happens. When he does want you back... Don't make it easy. Especially since he left you for someone else; make him prove himself to you. Then you will know if you are another fling or if he's actually worth a place in your heart.

Sometimes we just use someone until another right one or wrong one comes along. And going with one's heart isn't always the right answer either. So hang in there as thing in life aren't always set in stone,and so goes love.

lexilou agony auntit sounds like he has gotten in a bit deep and is not sure where to go. For the 4 year olds sake wait until he knows what he wants before you make a move. Let him know you are there for him but not in a needy way. He may need to get her mum out of his system before he wakes up and realises what he had with you. Or he may be playing games. Dont read too much into it but if he becomes single again very quickly make your move then but be prepaed for heartache as he still has a lot more grwoiing up to do xx

I'll just add, the 4 yr old daughter is his new girlfriend's. He has never been in in a relationship with a child and has always said he was too young to have kids (25 on Friday).
