GhostChild agony auntGive him time and space. Crying on the phone for two hours will only push him further away.

Don't smother him, don't force yourself on him and don't pressure him. Let him know that you are sorry, that you jumped to the wrong conclusion because of insecurities, and let him know it's only because you care about him so much that you're just too afraid that you'll lose him.

Say that you want him back, but don't force it. Don't sit there and cry and send him emotional texts.

If my girlfriend called me a cheater, insulted me and pushed me away, then started bawling her eyes out and crying over the phone to me, that wouldn't make me want to forgive her.

Just be mature about it, admit fault, apologize and most of all, give him space and time to think. Guys need time to think things through.

Best of luck!

As hurt and sorry as you claim to be, have you imagined for a moment that he might be even more hurt than you?

He was totally honest and open with you. He tried his best to be respectful by confiding in you and you assumed the worst about him.

Not only did you assume the worst, but you treated him badly.

That said, perhaps you learned a lesson about verbally abusing people. I have no tolerance with anyone who verbally abuses me (even if they have a valid point).

I can't deal with it and don't even want to try.

Woman often think they can get away with it because they think it's "just words" and they are "just women" and so they really can't hurt a guy. Well, they can.

dirtball agony auntYou showed your true colors and guess what, they were UGLY!

I don't blame him and I think he did the right thing. What you should learn from this is to not jump to conclusions. You should also learn that calling people nasty names is never a good plan, even when you feel hurt. It just shows what an immature person you really are.

All you can do is apologize sincerely and hope he accepts. I wouldn't waste another second with you though if I were in his shoes.

Spendi,

Honestly sounds like there are some trust issues arising within the relationship. Txting him acting desperate is not a way to get something or some one back. I would be frustrated, but any who I would do the following,

1. Tell him that you care and love him.

2. Explain to him that if he needs time to think about it you'll give him some time frame of days.

3. Tell him that even though your reaction was awful you have learned and that if he can't see pass this it shard formyou to believe that he cares/loves you.

4. Tell him he's hurting you mentally and emotionally.

After all that if he still has you playing the begging game Spendy it's time to seethe picture with different eyes.

just a female agony auntwell i think the most important thing to tell him is that you misunderstood him and that you are truelly sorry for the nasy unfair things you said to h im.

he said he just wanted to be friends right? well maybe that was just because he needed time to asess the situation that is why you need to tell him you didnt mean what you said before he decides that he doesnt want you.

if he loves you, like i think he does, hes just hurt thats all, then he should understand that you freaked out that he cheated on you, when he didnt.

i hope i have helped you in some way.

good luck!

pinkkisses24 agony auntIm sorry you hhave been so upset over this situation. However, I would suggest you try making it up to him with a gesture. Maybe a poem, dinner, chocolates or gift etc. Something from the heart which will express how deeply sorry you are.

Hope it helps
