writes: My ex boyfriend wants me back. We have three children but I don't want to hurt him as I don't love him any more and I have met someone else that I really like. My ex boyfriend rang me one weekend and found out that he was here and I just think my ex is jealous that I am moving on with my life. Could this be true? I also need a way to tell my ex that it's really over between us. How would I do this and not hurt him too much?

Dear Anon,
I read your letter with deep thought and can only offer my sincerest help.
There was obviously an appropriately reason that you and your partner split in the first place. Obviously the reason was enough for you to decide what you want and to move on. There is no reason for your ex not to accept this.
This cannot go on, and you must reason with him. Sit him down and tell him that you can't help how you feel, and that you've moved on with your life, and that you don't want to hurt him, but he too must move on, like you have. Tell him that he will find love again, and also that if your relationship was to work, you wouldn't have split in the first place. It may seem harsh, but your ex needs to know, or he shall be living on false hope of you and him getting back together.
I wish you good luck.
