writes: I have been in a relationship with my boyfriend for over a year now. We split up because we are still young and we had different interests in life.Recently we have been meeting up and sleeping together, I was ok at first and thought it would be easy but now my heads all over the place. I love him so much and I miss us being in a relationship, we were great together but I am just scared what his reaction could be! I don't think I can carry on with just casually seeing him, I just need another opinion please help!

I was allowing him to jerk me around. You'll only get hurt in the end...i did..you deserve to be with someone who wants to commit to you.

As my late grandmother would have said, "Why buy the cow when the milk is free?"

If you got back together you will eventually confront the same problems that caused you to break up. I believe that casual sex is only manageable with people you don't know well and don't intend to. You can talk to him and risk him not wanting to see you again, but you will be giving yourself chances to meet a more suitable guy and start fresh.
