Alrighty. So my and my boy friend broke up and I really still love him, I've tried to get over him, not talking to him and what not, but it just won't work. Me and him are talking now and I don't know if I should tell him how I still feel or not any advice?

Announcing your feelings creates expectations and pressure. Let's be honest, we don't confess our love for someone because we're expecting them to say 'Oh, ok. I didn't know that'. We want them to reciprocate and if they don't or do but aren't ready to act it makes things awkward for everyone.

Your relationship ended for a reason. It could be that the circumstances have changed so that you are no longer a suitable match, or that you both needed to repair things on your own. Give yourselves a chance to do that before delving into round two.

Leave it as friends for now. The relationship, such as it is, is a bit fragile for anything more. Let him get to know you again...for the first time (this was a tv ad slogan years back, but it seems apt here).
