I wish we could go our separate ways!

Question - (10 November 2010) 1 Answers - (Newest, 10 November 2010)
A female United Kingdom age 51-59, anonymous writes:

Why can't my ex and I stay away from each other?

We were together for 7 years and split up 3 years ago. I had suffered undiagnosed post natal depression for nearly 3 years and was awful. He gave up and ended up having an affair. I kicked him out.

We keep trying to only have contact for the kids, but it never lasts. We end up missing each other and talking to each other every morning and every evening sometmes for hours. We meet up and talk and this has led to more intimate relations. Then we try and talk about the future, we both get scared and pull away until the next time. I know that I still love him and he still loves me, but is that enough? And why oh why can't we just go one way or the other. Is this love, habit, fear??? It drives me crazy because although we stay away from each other for a few days, that's about as long as it lasts, then we are back in each other's life. This sounds nuts I know, but any insight or anyone who has advice and has gone through the same thing would be much appreciated.

Could you be with him after he had an affair and say you will trust him 100 0/0? I have had this scenario but now moved on. If he hadnt had someone else i would say go back. I dont think he loved you as much as you loved him,thats why he got with someone else.
