writes: So I just got into this relationship and have been with the guy a month. He was telling me a week ago how he was so glad he was my boyfriend and making all these fun plans for us in the summer. Then the next week he was telling me he was confused and knew he was going to hurt me and knows for a fact he doesn't want to marry me. I broke up with him because he told me he knew he didn't want to end up with me and I figured there was no point to us dating. I was just wondering what might have caused him to change and if I did the right thing dumping him. We only broke up a few days ago and he has called me once to tell me happy bday which was sweet. He also told me he wants to still talk and be friends still. I was also wondering if this is a good idea or if I should just stay away from him?

Not a good idea. When someone can't make their mind up and keeps changing it, then that person has issues that they must deal with. You need to figure out how you feel and get over your break up. What you do not need is him suddenly saying he fancies you again, the hurting you again, or him suddenly deciding that he doesn't want to be friends. time to move on, I think.

Are there many feelings involved? If neither of you care all too much for each other romantically it can work fine. But, he might be interested in having you as a friends with benefits, so watch out.

Keep him as a platonic friend because having a friend is more useful than an enemy.
You will never know if somewhere down the road , you may need his help on some matters.
