Giving the ex a second chance, but it's awkward

Tagged as: Dating, Friends, The ex-factor<< Previous question   Next question >>
Question - (12 November 2008) 3 Answers - (Newest, 12 November 2008)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I had a boyfriend who was great, the sweetest guy alive. Until one day he broke up with me out of the blue for another girl. It was bad. We didn't talk again until after he and the girl broke up. Then we became really good friends again. We have so much in common that it wasn't surprising, but recently he asked me for a second chance. He told me that he made a huge mistake in breaking up with me and that if I didn't want to give him another chance he'd understand. It took me awhile to decide, but I told him I'd give him one more shot. Now when we're together it's weird. I don't know if it's because we had our moment and we screwed it up, or if I keep dwelling on the past and thinking it's going to happen again. I think that maybe I was actually over him and just didn't realize it, but now the chemistry is gone. I really don't know what to do. I really did like this guy a lot and I don't want to ruin the friendship we built back up, but I don't want to keep dating him if it's going to be as awkward as it is now. What do you think I should do?

you know wat i think you are over him...you realized that being friends is great so if you dont want to ruin your friendship with him you should tell him now before you get any deeper in this you dont want him to fall any more in love with you than he already is...you probably already have given him the false impression that you still like him..or you can stick out mayb you are just feeling aakward for the moment and your just trying to see if you can trust him again if thats the case then it wont hurt to wait...if this advice helps email me at this site and tell me all about what happened...xoxo...

Hiya ... I think you are right saying that you are over him. You still have the friendship there, but the rest has gone. Let him down gently saying that you really do like him as a friend only and apologise for your mistake. Sooner rather than later ... better for all concerned. Good luck xxxxx
