    BOTH! Take him back, you have so few options, no self respect or chance of getting any soon, he will dump you but over time may return to use you and possibly impregnate you....live the dream.

    Sounds to me like he had her picked out before you two even broke up or he just wanted to "be" with other people. What was his reason for breaking up with you? I would base my decision on that. If you believe that he regretted what he did and that he really loves you too, then you can take him back if you want. But be leary - he might do it again (depending on why he broke up with you in the first place.)

    don't waste your time.
    if he did it once, he'll do it again..
    it's hard to get out of relationships like that.
    stay away

    Sharona Life is a Tale Told by an Idiot

    You ex does not love you. Your ex loves himself. If you are available he'll give you another chance and now that he knows what a dumb ass fool you are making of yourself, he will get bored real, real fast. Men want someone they can work for, someone that is of value that makes them feel like they got someone that no one else can get. That's the game. You are just giving it away for free honey and he has no respect for you. Why should you take him back? What the heck has he done to deserve it but humiliate and dump you. What a prince. You are telling him by your behavior that it's okay and I don't think, I KNOW he will do it over and over to you till he gets so tired of YOU he won't bother anymore. Get a spine and find someone who respects you. And be someone worthy of respect.

    It is highly likely that he will do it again. Perhaps it would be better for you not to put yourself in a position again where you will be hurt. There are so many good, respectful guys -- rather find one of those.

    The magic word is 'might'.

    He didn't talk to you to say he wants you back, he deliberately let you know he 'might'.

    Like, if there's nothing better going on, or if you beg hard enough.

    He's already left you, you are just volunteering to be something to do while he looks around.

    I have been in this exact same situation as yourself!!
    when I was at school, my boyfriend and I broke up a few times and each time he had a girlfriend already lined up so once we broke up, he had a new one straight away...
    Trust me on this - I would honestly cut your losses and move on...
    My boyfriend at the time (we're still friends now) hasn't changed one bit.. Except now he's got 2 kids and has just left the mother before christmas and already has a new girlfriend! It's a vicious cycle, so if I were you, like I said, move on a start a fresh!
    It'll always be the same shit if you continue with him, and you don't want all the hassles!

    Your ex is treating you like a rebound girl with no feelings. I think you should find someone new because he is obviously taking your love for granted.

    Sounds like he rebounded after he broke up with you. When someone jumps into a relationship very quickly after a break up it most likely means the person was rebounding. Even if he may have started something with the girl before the breakup she was most likely just a way for him to feel not alone when breaking up with you. What I would suggest is although he says he might want to be with you again, I would take things VERY SLOWLY. Don't jump right back into the serious boyfriend/girlfriend thing with him because what ever problems you may have had that caused the breakup will still be there mark my words and you both need to work them out before it will have any chance of lasting. TAKE IT SLOWLY, make him date you as though you both never dated before. This will allow you both plenty of time to talk about why the relationship went wrong, find out what you both need to do differently and also redisover each other.

    If he broke up with you in the first place, it means there is something seriously wrong with the relationship. By immediately finding somebody new, it's an indication that he doesn't share the same feelings as you. I would move on if I were you!

    You know the answer to your question. Trust your instincts. You now need to become just as selfish. What is it that you want? You say you love him. Do you trust him? Is he loyal?

    Is he that inescapable? Are you past the point of no return?

    Find the courage.

    Only YOU know that answer...
    Sometimes guys need time to mature, for a relationship but if you love him, follow your heart, just dont be to sure of him. he MIGHT do it again, so be a step ahead of yourself.

    I would honestly say that he's probably sincere about wanting you back. The probable reason for breaking up with u and trying out someone else is the uncanny question of "is there better out there" and he probably hit the point of "oh no, shes the best (referring to you)" and realized he made a horrible mistake. If you love him, give him one more chance, if he does it again though, I would let it lie there

    Obviously he didn't come back out of love, but because things didn't work out with the other person. You'll only regret taking him back once YOU'VE found someone better and feel comitted in the relationship.
