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

Hello,

About 2 months ago, I called my boyfriend of 7 years to break up with him because I'm having feelings for my ex, I took about 1 month to think about it prior to calling and realized I needed to listen to my heart. The bf and I had a very long conversation, we talked about everything except the break up until the end when I mentioned that I wanted to originally call and break up with him. Technically we didn't break up because I had second thoughts but I think he took the comment literally, I wasn't really aware of the effect it had until now. He even said at the end that he will call me tomorrow because it was getting late. He never called and I realized he took it literally because when one of my friends saw him, he told the friend that he and I are no longer together. I on the other hand did not think we have broken up because I hesitated at the end during the phone call. I've been trying to call him to tell him because I think I do love him but he's not picking up my calls so I've decided to stop calling because if he really wants to talk to me, he'll eventually call back. I've missed him dearly. On the other hand, I've gotten back with the ex and we're dating because I did want to get back with him but to my surprise I'm constantly thinking of the bf of 7 year. As you can see, I'm a little confused here.

Aunty BimBim agony auntNot a lot of your question makes much sense to me.

YOu say you had been with your boyfriend for SEVEN years, but you had feelings for an ex!! An ex from more than seven years ago?

And you wonder why your boyfriend took your call literally?

And even though you have been waiting for him to call you, you have been going out with the ex anyway?

And you have been dating the ex and now you are constantly thinking about the seven year boyfriend?

YOu broke it off with seven year boyfriend, and are dating your ex, and seven year boy is not picking up your calls so that you can tell him you love him ..... are you still dating the ex while you are trying to do this?

I think you dont know what you want, and I think the seven year boyfriend has had a lucky escape if you were willing to be with him for seven years while having feelings for an ex.
