What's meant to be will; no matter what. Give him space, that's obviously what he wants. After a while, if he misses you and wants you back, he will let it be known.

yeah he wants some space to try out other girls...

Love will come and love will go ... but when you find the one who loves you regardless of your actions ... then the others will not matter ... Sometimes we may think that we have found the one, but their reactions will say otherwise ... The love you seek will get better after this and even more so with each time you learn ... Goodluck!

I think your bf told you exactly what he thought of you when he broke up. Those are all just flimsy excuses for him to be able to go out and do whatever he wants. He probably wanted to start seeing other people, but didn't have the guts to tell you. I think that you should move forward, and kick him out of your life completely. Even though you are just "friends" it is obvious that you want more, and that could place you in a very vulnerable position.

Yeah, you probably should give up but your heart is hurting and wants him back. The truth is he is no longer in love with you, and your poor heart deserves better and to be loved back. I wouldn't recommend a friendship as that will be so hard for you. Try and spend your time with friends having fun. I know, easier said than done, but we have all had our hearts broken, it's a sad time but you WILL heal and it's totally up to you when. You will know when it's time to let go, it's a process but you have strength in these somewhere, so show him and the world that it takes more than this to brake you! Choose to do what is best for you and find someone who will NEVER let you go!

I'm pretty sure you weren't calling him too much and you weren't stressing him out too much. My ex said this to me too and it took me a while to realize that I was actually a really good girlfriend. Most couples touch base almost every day. How often did you call, a couple of times a week? surely they weren't desperate calls in rapid succession! I think he was looking for an excuse to drop you guilt-free. Be friends for now, but concentrate on YOU above all things. Don't go back to him that easy, as this might bring you more pain.

Guys are simple creatures and don't take much upkeep. Too much attention and we get distracted. I would say quit while ahead as to not be the crazy ex.

What caused him so much stress? I've been in your position a little over a month ago. Getting him back: If you're still friends with him, then good. Play it cool, don't put pressure on him. Don't call him nearly as much. When you feel the need to call him, force yourself not to. Here's the thing - as you lean in to him, he'll pull back. When you pull back, he'll lean in. It might sound wierd but that's basic human behavior, we all do it. So, lean out. Think about how wonderful it would be to have him lean in and call you "Hey, why haven't you called, how are you doing?" Wouldn't that be incredible? Put the phone down, trust that this will work, and feel him leaning in. I have the same problem you do, I lean in. I mean, I seriously lean waaaaaaay in. I know how hard it is. Be patient, trust, and give him all kinds of space. Here's the scary thing: If he still has an interest, he'll call you. He has to lean in, he has no choice. If he doesn't still have an interest, the relationship is done. That's a horrible, painful thing to think about, but the only thing you can do if this is the case, is get through the pain. Don't talk to him or call him or write him or text him for a month. Yes, a month. The pain will take that long, or longer. Then, you won't be leaning in any more. You'll be standing on your own two feet, balanced. This is what you really need anyway. If he sees you balanced, will he have an interest again? I don't know. He might, he might not. If you're truly balanced, you can handle it either way. Good luck.

Hi; I am in your same situation with a girl. I am lesbian: believe me, calling, texting him and pursuing him, will only push him away from you. Try to play it aloof and he will show some interest. If he doesn't, at least you will have your dignity and self-respect. Good luck to you.

maybe you are so clingy and so needy.. most men would would like a strong woman who doesn't always need men to carry their books and bags and call them on measly hours just for a really not important emergency just to get the guys off their friends why don't you try to be more easy on him are you sure you love him or are you obsessed? loosen the leashes a bit...he feels uneasy having a girlfriend breathing down his neck all the time

Well, maybe you should leave him alone and stop calling him.
