writes:Me and my ex boyfriend have just started talking again after he broke up with me a month ago because he was too busy for a girlfriend.Since we've been chatting, he's told me he loves me, he's asked about my family and college and seems genuinely interested, and if I don't text back after say 10 minutes he gets worried and texts to see where I've gone... so I know he's still interested, but for the past week or so I've just been playing it very cool and not showing how I feel about him.Well basically, tonight I sent him quite a long text telling him I still love him and that I would love to go back to how we were, and just generally telling him how I feel about him and how much I miss him. I said to him I hope he feels the same way, but if he doesn't then I will be strong enough to move on, but I just wanted to be honest with him because I knew if I kept on pretending I would live to regret it.I honestly couldn't hold my feelings in any longer. I love this man, and I know he loves me, so I just swallowed my pride and laid my cards out on the table.He hasn't replied, and I'm just worried he's not going to. But I just want to ask what do I do now?Do I wait for him to contact me? Or if he doesn't contact me do I contact him again? Or do I just be patient and keep myself occupied and see it as if he texts then great but if he doesn't at least I have no secrets or regrets?And please don't say things like 'you shouldn't have told him how you feel, it might have scared him off'. If I didn't tell him how I feel I know I would have regretted that decision for the rest of my life, so I wanted it out in the open, no secrets, no games. Just flat out honesty.

Wait for him. You actually did the right thing by telling him, because now you will know whether he's just playing with you or whether he really wants you. As you say, if he texts, great. If not, then move on from him.
