My boyfriend said he wanted to just be friends a few days ago, i was really upset and he knew i was, but he still wanted to be friends, but now im done with all the crying, and i still love him but i know i need to move on.

Hes text me to see how i am a few times and asked what im up to, and in my msn name i had 'emma has a diamond boyfriend' but i took it out of my name then he text me asking why i removed it. It says me and him are still in a relationship on facebook, but im not going to change it on facebook because i still love him, so ill wait for him to change it.

My friend thinks its all mind games so i dont move on and that he will keep me hanging incase he doesnt find someone else, what do you think

Loopy14 agony auntI reckon your boyfriend is an attention seeker, he knows your really into him and beleives you'll chase him forever more. He wants the best of both worlds, he wants to mess around with other girls (are alot of his mates single?), but he also wants you to be there as a safety net incase he realises the grass isnt greener on the other side. My advise is ditch him NOW. If you dont i can guarantee you will get more and more hurt. I should know, ive been there before and i made a complete fool of myself trying to get him back. If i could turn the clock back i would have just accepted the fact he just wanted to be friends first time round and moved on.

GrimmReality agony auntListen to your friend...that friend is WISE!!!

Your guy is a wuss. He is trying to keep his options open in case whatever he is pursuing does not work out.

Plain and simple, if you are dealing with him on social sites like FB or Myspace, delete and block him. These sites are relationship killers and it will gnaw at you like a monster if you have contact with him, especially there.

Please listen to your friend. Believe me...have no contact...let this tool be someone elses problem

Country Woman agony auntI think you need to stop the contact with your ex, he has hurt you and then thinks he can pick you up and drop you whenever he wants as he knows you love him.

Don't play his game, do change your Facebook as he is not your boyfriend any more and this lets him know you are moving forward without him.

You need to move forward and you won't be able to do that if he is asking you why you are changing details on line, what does he expect, he sounds very immature to me and I think he has done you the favour - don't fall for his charms again, just remember all the tears and pain he has put your through recently.

Your friend is right and people who play mind games have their own issues to deal with.

Make sure you look fantastic and feel fantastic and get out and about and not rush into a new relationship but don't sit around waiting for him to contact you, you could be missing out on having fun and laughs and all he wants is for you to be tearful waiting for a snippet or crumb from his table.

Move on sweetheart, he is the one who will realise what he has lost when it is too late. You are better than what he deserves, you just have to believe it now.

He may be having second thoughts but he has caused you a lot of pain when he broke up with you so don't let him continue to hurt you emotionally.

Make plans for a great night out or a holiday with your friend or something you can look forward to that doesn't include him in it.

Keep us posted OK.
