A female Spain age 30-35, *iema.x writes:

I took my ex back last week after a year of being apart from him . I took him back because i could see a change in him and i was certain he wasnt the cheater he was, however, last night we went for a meal with some friends and he didnt even sit with me ! Instead him and his single friend went and sat with some girls and now and again he'd look over at me with a smug look on his face. When he came back over i asked him about it he totally denied it,I know he knows i saw him. Is he playing mind games? Why go to all the trouble to get me back and then flirt with some girls in front of me,make sure i saw it and then deny it?

He sounds like a Cookie Monster who can’t keep his hands out the cookie jar. Do you really want to go back there again?

Sounds like he is a gamester and very immature, Niema.x...Some "boys" are like this. I would be very open and find out what he really feels about you and what he feels about a relationship. If he can't give a mature and honest answer, I would drop him like a rock and move on. There are some very serious and mature young men your age out there. Don't waste your time with a silly boy, no matter how "cute" he may be.

Wow. Yes, it was a game.

The last time my boyfriend (whom I loved and was so into) macked on a chick in a restaurant was the last time I saw him. We were just eating, and this girl at another table and him were staring dead on at each other. She did the old get up and go use the restroom twice with her hair flying around and they were smiling at each other. I ignored it and stayed pleasant and told him I love him and thought, "Yeah, you enjoy that because you have a lot more opportunity coming buddy." after he left my house I called him on his cell and said I don't tolerate that, never will, and it' over, goodbye.

That smug look he gave you is code for being willing to treat you bad for his own ego. Do you always want to be vulnerable to this abuse?

If he went to the effort to get you back he then has to maintain the trust and really make you feel like he has changed.. but then almost instantly he has shown his true colours.. he hasnt changed. Get rid before he causes you more hurt. Its tough but i think you already know he hasnt changed, you just want to believe he has. Give him one more chance and if he goes off flirting with girls again then go and find someone who will respect you because nobody deserves to be cheated on once, let alone twice!

Hope that helps
