Question - (29 March 2011) 2 Answers - (Newest, 29 March 2011)
A female Australia age 30-35, anonymous writes:

My boyfriend and I have gone back together after four months of separation. He broke up with me because he found it so hard to manage his life after being so financially struggled and he just had so much arguments at that time. He also had another girl when we weren't together. But he broke up with her because he realized he still loves me. He chased me from August last year to February this year (which is quite a long time). Then I realized I still have feelings for him so I gave it another shot.

One thing that quite bothered me.. was when he told me that he met one of our common friends in the streets last week.. He was walking to my house because we were gonna hang out for the rest of the day, but this girl let's call her Michelle, ran into him and asked:

Michelle: Hey where you going?

My bf: uh. just off to see a friend.

And he told me about that when he saw me. He said, "babe I saw Michelle today our friend from highschool.." I said, "ah yeah what did she tell you?"

My bf: ah she just asked me where im going

Me: and what did you say?

My bf: uhh.. off to a friend's house.

Oh what? so you tell people I am just a friend? wtf? i'm your girlfriend. and he said, "sorry i didn't think about it that time."

Should I break up with my boyfriend? He said to me that he tells other people that we're together anyway. But he said he just didn't "think about it at that time..." should i believe him?

A reader, anonymous, writes (29 March 2011):

"Should I break up with my boyfriend?" Over him calling you his friend? Really? You need to ask that?

It's called a slip of the tongue OP, it happens, you spend so long calling your ex your friend when people ask that it becomes habit so even when you're together it can slip out. No big deal and certainly not something to break up over.

Now unless you have evidence to suspect that he's still keeping his options open you need to let this slide, it's really not a big deal. I called my girlfriend by my sisters name the other day and I've called my sister mom loads of times. Slips of the tongue are easy.

It is a simple mistake that anyone could make, its not like he purposely did it to lie to this 'michelle' person, and he still had the decency to tell you, if he thought it was going to bother you or if he had actually done it purposefully then he would have lied to you about bumping into her completely! Give him a chance, if it keeps happening, then maybe something is up!! He must love you a lot if he chased after you for that long until you finally 'realised'
