Okay. Me and muh ex dated for a year and five months. and we had a good relationship but we still argued like crazy and we really loved eachother and we got engaged for 6 or 7 months and last year i had to move up to florida with my mom but i didnt know i was going to move there. i thought i was going there to visit for spring break.. but turns out my dad wanted me to stay with her because me and muh dad were not getting along. so yeah. and after 3 months of me staying there he broke up with me. and that hurt me sooo bad! i didnt think i would live. because he loved me and i loved him.. well i still do.. but now since i moved back to nc he wont talk to me. hes not even friends with me because he doesnt want to be. and he makes me feel really bad by talking shit to me. and being really mean. and all i did was tell him that im not over him and til this day. im still not over him. i really love him. but he tells me that hes over me and that he will never be with me again. so idk what to do.

im sorry but i think that just becasue your ex doesnt keep intouch with you then they dont like you is wrong i mean i know that i wouldnt get back intouch with my exs every day or often even if i did like them because i well to be honest it would look a bit weird for you o have dumped then suddenly start textign them ringing them and checking up on them. i think they wil leither straight up regret and tell you or regret and wait alil while then tell you orrr they will just keep quiet or try and hide it but you will know when they are doing this because they will in time break down when they spend time with you . keeping their distnace is a way of putting up a barrier so they dont get hurt again.

Love is over rated.

You're born into this world alone, and then you die alone.

Suck it up and deal with it.

If he leaves and doesn't return, he never was yours to begin with.

because the way they act, the way he always flirts or says negative things about you when he really likes you, and he cant stop thinking about you but he acts like hes over you when hes really not he acts like hes better than you, he will look at you alot, and lie never believe your ex

Well i think you would know is by how they act. I mean if tis perso acts like a total bitch to you now in front of his/her friends that might be a sign of having to much pride and wanting to go back to you. Its difficult if your the one whose been dumped and still have feelings for the person , and than you find a rebound person. But if youve dumped some one and figured out it was the worse thing to do , than thats a worse situation. I suggest going straight up to the person and asking them. or atleast tell them like listen i dont care if you like me or not but i need you to know that I need you to know Im still in love with you and im sorry things messed up in the end, but maybe we could give it another go.... hope that helps!

i believe its a bit different, i see that when men still love a woman, they go out of their ways after a relationship (this is only SOME guys) to be absolute assholes in like a way to convince themselves they dont need the other girl. ive heard and seen this done to some of my best friends and its even happening to me currently. the ex is all in love and then as soon as its over, he reads into EVERYTHING people say, he NEVER stops talking about you to his friends even if its complete bitching, and he always tries to state "but im happy now but yeah im happy now def more happy now" like to convince himself and lie that he is over it when he isnt, he is actually struggling. ive heard about guys do this for months then come back saying "i love u i cant do it anymore" and they find ways in the time before that to degrade and upset that ex as much as they can to make themselves feel better.

i was out on sat night dancin iwth friends who are also friends of his and he thought i was trying to make him jealous when my other friends thought that was odd cause they didnt see it at all, there were alot of guys coming up to ME that i knew huggin me and stuff infront of him but he lies to himself to try and make himself feel better like "she is trying to make me jealous cause SHE isnt over ME" when its the complete opposite.

You can not just automatically tell if you ex still likes you right off the bat. Once you break up with your girlfriend, and you still have feelings for her, orif you break up with your boyfriend and still have feelings for him. Then its a whole new road. Its like building trust and a new friendship all over again, well that is what happened to me. I have had about 10 girl friends, and there is this one girl who just seems...sso, good to me, and we get along great, and we always stayed focused on eachother, and said how much we loved each other, and then boom...ther i was sobbing for days after she dumped me. The reason we broke up was because we always fought, but what couples dont? Anyways, guys just try to stay out of fights with your girl friend, because if you try to win the, 80% chance, you'll be dumped, now this doesnt happen all of the dime, but a lot. So try to flirt with your ex,a nd if he/she flirts back, keep going down the road that your on. if he/she does'nt flirt back, you should know to move on and find the one that is really the right one for you.

I agree with everyone here. She will find a way to contact you. Email, phone calls if she has the number, letters. Best way to find out is not to ignore it...come staight out and to the point and ask her.

A female reader, anonymous, writes (7 November 2006):

I agree with the person who stated the fact that she is an ex for a reason. For whatever reason your relationship ended it happened, and as a result you must ask yourself whether it is worth re-kindling that old flame which caused you so much disappointment and unhappiness in the past.

Do you still have strong feelings for this person, or are your emotions focused around anger and jealousy because of a bad break up? If the case is the latter then the chances of anything long term or worthwhile happening are slim. The feelings you experience now may just be residual from the past or the desire to let her know how much she hurt you.

If you aren't certainly convinced that she loves you, think about whether she is worth the risk again.

you shouldnt wait for someone who is wants space because it will get you in a bad state iv been there done that. if they truly loved you they wouldnt have asked for it in the first place. dont get all down in the blues waitin because they didnt plus they will realise what they are missin and they want you back then its still down to you if you want them back just dont let them cheat on someone with you that is seriously bad and if they do and realise they thought wrong and leave you again it gets you down again. dont dwell on it lifes too short to worry.

Does it matter? She is an Ex for a reason.

Don't hold out for a chance...go with the facts.

I wouldn't go back to someone who wanted time and space to "sort things out" and find out he/she has been dating some other person to help him/her sort themselves out.

Let it be.

Deal and heal.

Good Luck.

She will call, text or email you nearly everyday just to see if you're ok. That's a big sign that someone really cares about you.
