Now that other guy has moved on and we told each other in September we still loved each other...however he is going back out with this girl he broke up with in January to be with me!They are back together and he said he won't ruin that... I thought he loved me and I'm so confused. Can such strong feelings really have changed in so short a time?

Sounds like you've had a bit of an emotional time of it, sorry to hear that. The sad fact is that hormonal/romantic infatuation is all-too-often mistaken for being in love! If he really loved you then he wouldn't have forgotten about those feelings as fast as he did. I've been in a similar situation myself, and looking back- it seems as though he didn't know what he wanted himself and was just flitting from one situation to another to avoid being alone to figure out what he really wants.
The best thing for you is to move on now and find someone who appreciates you for everything you are and all you have to offer and don't settle for anything less!
Good luck

To help you understand what happened imagine love is like fire. When a piece of paper catches fire it does so easily but the fire burns out quickly. When a piece of hard wood catches fire it takes a longer time and often needs several tries to get it going, but the once the fire is burning it stays a long time.
