Question - (16 June 2009) 1 Answers - (Newest, 16 June 2009)
A female Canada age 30-35, anonymous writes:

My ex boyfriend and I have been on and off since November.

I realized that this is not healthy for me nor him, and I am really unhappy being with him, but I some how always find my way back to him, and he swoons me with all his, 'i promise i'll change, i'm sorry, i love you'

Typical right? I know. I am one of those silly teenage girls who keeps on falling for it over and over again.

Today I told him I did not want to be with him, at all, and how I wish we could stay friends but I know we can't because it will just end up as it always does(us getting back together)

He didn't take it very well - and said the same things he always does. 'I'm sorry, I'll change I promise, I will always love you'

I almost fell for it again!! I feel so stuck, I really don't want to go back to him, but I feel like I will fall for it again.

I need to know how I can stick with this, instead of falling back into the same pattern over and over again..

Thanks!!

A female reader, iSmil3y United States +, writes (16 June 2009):

If you honestly do not want to be with him, you need to stay strong and listen to your heart. You need to let him know that it's not his fault and you don't want him to change, you just don't want to be with him anymore. If it's hard Not to go back to him then stay out of contact with him for a while and focus on things like hanging out with friends.
