Question - (28 May 2011) 2 Answers - (Newest, 28 May 2011)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Well i split up with my boyfriend of 2 years just over 3 months ago. We ended in a pretty bad way leading me to delete him from facebook. He completely cut contact, although i finished him, he drove me to it and all i wanted was answers to why he broke my heart, but he wouldnt give me any. He kept ignoring me, only answering 'small talk' type questions by texts. Iv been slowly getting over it but then the other night he requested to be my friend over facebook, i accepted and he spoke and apologised to me. I dont understand what this means, why now has he changed? hes never been the type to apologise, he is an extremely stubborn person. Does this mean he still has feelings or is he just feeling guilty? Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

No - this could be a control thing. People who are stubborn and never apologize don't suddenly change. Usually the apologies are hollow, and are a cover for something else.

At the end of it, this guy treated you quite badly, so it's best to move on anyway. But his apology isn't something I'd be too quick to accept.

He presumably regrets how things ended between the two of you. Whether or not he's changed (or is willing to work towards change) and wants to be with you again, or whether it's simply guilty and he wanted to apologise so things didn't end on that note, is something you can't really tell until he gives you more to act on. Play it cool, accept the apology, and then see what happens. If you don't want to let him back in though, he firm about that.
