Question.

My bf of about 4 months broke it off about a month ago. He said he was feeling guilty about not always being there and he felt he wasn't doing his duties as a bf. He was having a hard time balancing his personal life/business and a relationship. He told me that he is not ready for a relationship and that he still wants to be friends and nothing more. BUT that only lasted a week or so. Now we act just like a couple again. We hold hands, kiss, he holds me, its all the same, except, we're not in a relationship. What do you call that?? Dating?? Its confusing.

crimson_kiss agony auntOne sure fire way to find out what is really going on...ask him this:

if we were out in public and ran into some of your friends...how would you introduce me?

You will get your answer about what you are to him! If your his gf he will say that.

Its very confusing, and people can get hurt.

I was in the same situation with my girlfriend, she broke up with me but then this happend, she ended up 'cheating' on me, but acording to her; it was not cheating, we were only friends.

Dont let him play you like this, take care of yourself. Just ask him what he wants, being your boyfriend, or just a normal friend, but keep it that way then.
