Question - (3 June 2012) 2 Answers - (Newest, 5 June 2012)
A female Canada age 41-50, anonymous writes:

I like this guy who has two kids with his ex-girlfriend. He's told me that he's no longer with her, but they have remained friends; he also says he likes me and would like for us to be friends. The problem is that I have romantic feelings for him. I have realized this is a dead-end situation, so I have cut all communication with him because I can't see how it would work, especially if he decided to reconciliate with his ex someday. That would simply leave me heartbroken. But recently he sent me an email asking if he could call me. What should I do?

Why on earth do you think it's a dead end situation? This guy you like has already told you that the mother of his kids is his ex-girlfriend, i.e. it's finished. If you really like this guy then why don't you go for it. He broke up with his ex for a reason and now he is free to date other people so just go for it. Obviously he has to remain on good terms with his ex for the sake of the children and you have to respect that. Take the plunge and enjoy yourself!
