What should I do?

I was with my boyfriend for 8 months and it was really good, we never fought or had any major issues, however he had a lot of family and school commitments. He broke up with me because he didn't have time for me and felt that he was hurting me, but has not exactly allowed me to move on. We are in the same circle of friends so obviously we have still been seeing each other since, but he still talks and acts the same way around me. He still makes an effort to communicate with me regularly and makes references of things we did when we were together. He jokes around and acts like nothing has changed. I think we have both hung on to our feelings for each other but I don't know whether to try and see if he wants me back or to move on...

So_Very_Confused agony auntI agree with tennisstar88, YOU are responsible for your feelings and your behavior. YOU are the one not moving on.

IF he wanted you back you are right there and he would let you know...

tennisstar88 agony auntNo honey, you're not allowing yourself to move on. You're responsible for yourself, and your feelings...your ex is NOT.

If he didn't have the time for you then, he's not now. So nothing will change if you two got back together.

In order to move on, I suggest you start socializing with only a few friends from that group not including him. Stay away from functions he will be at, and just avoid him at all costs until you can accept this breakup. It also couldn't hurt to make new friends instead of the same old clique. This is to to help you move on.
