Fatherly Advice agony auntThere comes a time when you have to face the harsh truth. This answer is very harsh. If you are not ready for that stop reading now.

__________________

You seem to be confusing love with power and jealousy.

You can't make another person truly love you. You can get an infatuation or a crush. Unlike shoes and cars you can't buy boyfriends.

He was hurt by your actions. He doesn't see you as the person he was infatuated with. He has no interest in you as he sees you now. All you represent to him is pain.

You think that he chose your friend as an attempt to get revenge against you. That is probably not true. He knew her, your girlfriend felt sorry for him because she saw how you were treating him.

In short you will not get him back with more lies and manipulation. You need to learn that love is unselfish. When you care more for how he feels than how you look, then you will be there.
