Question - (22 July 2007) 2 Answers - (Newest, 23 July 2007)
A female United States age 41-50, anonymous writes:

My boyfriend and I broke up about a month and a half ago.

We had been together for about 2 years, and living together for a year.

We had even talked marriage, I am still in love with him and want to get him back, but I'm not sure how. Over the past 2 weeks we've started talking a lot more (via email all day long).

Finally, last Thursday we went out to dinner together. We both had a great time, but we also both got kinda tipsy and ended up sleeping together.

I don't think he's the type to use me, but after that, I'm not so sure...Friday we were both going to be out in the same place.

I was being set up on a date for the night, but I hadn't told him that.

Finally late Friday afternoon I sent him an email to let him know that I was going to be on a date and that I was really sorry I wasn't honest with him before, but I'd be happy to avoid the bar he will be at if he wanted to let me know where he was going.

He seemed a bit baffled at the news and said he'd tell me where he and his friends were going, but he didn't. And I ended up running into him at the end of the night (when we both had plenty of liquor in our systems).

We ended up in a screaming match on the street. I'm not even sure what it was about.

Part of me thinks it was a jealous rage on his part, but why be jealous if he broke up with me?

He told me he didn't believe me that I was going to be on a date, I think he thinks I'm playing games. But, I'm not. I want to be with him, he knows that, but he doesn't want to be with me.

So i'm dating...I'm so confused.

I don't want us to end on bad terms if this is really going to be it...but I don't think I should reach out to him, either.

Any suggestions how to rectify this?

I'm so disappointed because I felt like we were going in the right direction the past couple of weeks . . .

Well to be fair it's you that went on a date, not him.

How would you have felt if he had done that?

You want him back so stop dating this other guy, it's not fair on him.

Be straight with your ex, tell him you want him back.

You need to know one way or the other.
