Hi I need some help in a confusing situation. Me and my ex broke up about seven months ago because of a stupid misunderstanding, we were both very stubborn about it but hurt feelings got in the way of sorting it out earlier. anyway as time went by we saw each other and i knew by the way he looked at me that he still cared for me and i really really wanted to get back with him but i never approached him or made an attempt because i wanted that to come from him and anyway he started to initiate contact by texting and we carried on like that for a while, so we finally got back together one night and i was so so happy i didnt even care if it was just that one night but i havent seen him since then out..he has texted me but there was no serious talk about getting back together or meeting or anything?? I did play it very cool that night and it was him that came over to me, so could he just not be aware of how i feel about him and thats why hes not suggesting we get back together? I am so confused because im worried that he'll end up getting a new girlf or something? I think the next time he texts im going to bite the bullet and tell him that i want to get back together and not just a casual thing. but how do i approach this? i dont wanna scare him off.. what should i say, the past seven months have been so so hard and i really need this situation to have a conclusion asap

He probably won't ever want to renew the relationship, but you can be his no-strings-attached booty call if you want. All he has to do is keep sending you mixed signals and you'll keep pursuing him & sleeping with him.

Cupcake agony auntNo he clearly wouldnt bother texting you and continuing conctacting you if there wasnt feelings there. He wants to talk to you for a reason, and i assume thats because theres still feelings, so if you like this guy then say something to him to see if he has that strong of feelings for you

Cupcake agony auntYes I have, and It did go somewhere... I know what you mean by not wanting to say something strong.. thats why I suggested you just say something like "Is there even a point in us talking, because if this isnt going anywhere I dont think we should speak anymore"... it lets him know that although you are willing to make a commitment to him your also not afraid to just walk away and cut off all contact. Which puts him in the poistion to really decide what he wants, because if he likes you hes clearly not going to want you to never speak with him again.

Good Luck I hope it works out, let me know!!

Ok thanks for the help y'all! i am just worried though that if i say something too strong or something he'll freak out and think i want marriage/babies etc., which is of course not what i want at all i just want a bit of a commitment from him, have you ever said somrthing like that to someone you were seeing ? Did it work out??

Cupcake agony auntNext time he texts you I would ask him 'I just want to know if theres even a point to us talking. Is this going to go anywhere because if not I dont think we should be speaking'... if you let him know that either you want something from this or your loosing contact he may get scared that hes going to loose you and fess up to wanting to get back together... Guys like a chase, and if he feels that hes going to loose all contact with you he will probably step up if he does still have feelings for you.. and if he doesnt well then you know you should just move on.. and definatly dont sleep with him until your together again..

Goodluck!!!
