writes: I have been with my bf for five years. We love each other deeply, but I'm just not sure if it is right. After being on and off for a few months we finally decided to break it off, but still keep in touch.We recently did the friends with benefits thing a couple of times, and he has been there for me when I was having some tough times. But he recently went away on vacation, and drunkly made out with some other girl. He was honest and told me about it...and I can't help but feel hurt. Even though I initiated the break up and I know he's in love with me, I just feel so let down. While I was here thinking, and mourning our relationship, and hoping in the back of my mind that someday we would get back together, he was making out with someone else. It also doesn't help that he was the only person I've EVER been with, while he was with other women before me.I know that he loves me, and he told me how bad he feels about hooking up with someone else, but I can't seem to stop feeling betrayed. I guess my question is, should I take this as a sign and just move on from him, or should I hope to reconcile with him sometime in the future?

I reckon your ex is just as confused as you, you've broken up with this guy, he naturally moves on by looking for another source of female love and affection to cushion the blow and i think this has brought out the jealous side in you. I think that because of your reaction towards him being with another woman you either A. are meant to be together or B. You dont want to be with him but u cant stand the thought of someone else being with him. I think u need to evaluate the reasons why you broke up with him and decide as soon as whether you want to get back with him or not because its not fair on the guy if he is not allowed to move on because u see a possible chance in the future of getting back together.
