SirenaBlusera agony auntYou have moved on, and found love with a new man. It sounds as if this man that you love treats you with the respect you deserve. Your ex promises to reform, but he caused you a lot of pain and suffering, and you're with someone who, like you said, makes you smile. I suppose there is the possibility that your ex has changed, but it's not likely. He can promise you the world, but he could be manipulating you. You don't know who you want to spend the rest of your life with, now, but you are young, don't rush into a commitment with anyone if you don't know what you want. Just take things one day at a time, and enjoy this new man. You may have some memories of happy times with your ex, but love takes time to blossom, and you will form new memories with this new guy.

Hello there,

Don't go back. Keep moving forward. You broke up for what sound like pretty valid reasons; you were getting frustrated. It's too easy to fall back into the patterns you were both accustom to the first time you were together.

People DO change, but it probably take you not going back to him for it to really happen.

Do not go back. I was married 7 years to a man who sent much of that time unemployed and sitting at home playing computer games. He either had an excuse (no obs, I'm overqualified, no one called back) 0r he "got" the $50,000 job with all the benefits that never started. Move on with your new man.
