Although I am a little older than you... the same thing just happened to me. It doesn't matter if you are 17 or in your 40s... we all hurt and feel the pain of a broken heart just the same. I got the email after New Year's from a man I dated last year. He told me he missed me and wanted to try again. Our on-again relationship lasted 3 weeks this time and then he said he needed to think because he wasn't sure we were compatible after all. I actually waited for him to think for one entire week (miserably I might add) and then he officially dumped me yesterday by text! What a coward! I'm no longer hurt just angry and really happy that I didn't let it go any further because he isn't worth the time and effort. Don't wait for him to decide the fate of your relationship. Be strong... you are much better than him. Tell him that if he cares for you and loves you that he must treat you with the respect you deserve. If he can't do that then tell him to get lost! If he knows you are miserable, he will keep treating you the same. Have fun with your friends at school and try to forget about him. Don't wait around for him. Be true to yourself and know that you deserve to be treated with love and respect. I know it's hard... especially when you really like someone. Good luck :-)

What you have to do is accept the fact that you don't actually love him like you think you do. It's more complicated than that.
What you really want is to be accepted by him. People HATE being rejected and it can make you feel like you've lost the perfect guy and you love him more than you're own life.
But what you've described here is not a boy who earned those feelings by being treating you well and giving you love. He got you to feel that way by rejecting you and stringing you along.
It's strictly psychological.
Recognizing this can help you move on. Some people have rebound relationships to help them get over someone. While it can work, it shouldn't be what you do every time.
There are more than 3 billion guys on the planet. Don't let one of them make you feel this way when there are so many better guys out there.
