Ok this is a long shot so here it is. My exbf broke it off with me and I took it hard. I cool now and guess what? He's pressuring me to give it another try. Ok so here's the deal. I'm tolerating him and I'm bored. I've lost every feeling of love feelings for him from the breakup ordeal. It seemed like forever getting over him but I have. It's bittersweet. I told him I's give him an answer in 24 hrs. I'm planning to give him the yay then work hard to make myself at least care about him. This would make me feel good since I'm having a hard time with feeling guilty about not loving him like I use to. I want to at least make him feel like he still has it so he won't have low self esteem. It's going to take a lot of hard work but it's probably worth it since no one wants to be rejected. It's not like I have a bf so why not? It'll kill some time for me to.?

Update about what I did. He called first thing this morning I told him yes at least he'll be stable until I find the man of my dreams. I've got my eye on a mate I work with and we're going out for lunch today.

My bf doesn't need to know about it because it will bring him down the way he brought me down. I'll drop him once he's on cloud nine. He'll be fine. I'll help him by reminding him that's how I felt when he wasted my time to crush me in the end. Payback's a b*tch, it sucks.

Love is not a fire...sometimes when it's out, it'd for a good reason. So not matter how much gasoline you give, it may not burn.Even if it flares up again, it may not stay burning and go out again...but at what cost?

Take a look ahead 2-3 years, and see if he is the one you want to be with.

dollface1 agony auntif you feel like he deserves another shot, do it.

but remember you might think of it as killing time , but watch out you might fall for him again and end up getting hurt again.

so avoid past mistakes, rather be in it for real and be with the person because you want to be. don't do it because you don't want him to feel rejected.

Because thats unfair, give him a chance to get over you to

if you don't really feel the same.

Rather be with someone you feel the same about as the feel about you, don't waste your time, when you could be out there with mr right having a fabulous time, there's nothing like feeling in love seeing stars and having your skin tingle when he touches you and getting excited!

if you feel like this guy could possibly make you feel like that , go for it!

if not, don't be a time killer and wasting time with mr right now!

all the best
