When is it a good idea to get back together with your exboyfriend?
The thing is, I broke up with my boyfriend of 10 months on June, and before we were together I had a crush on him for like, a whole year… when we finally got together, I started feeling trapped, so I broke up with him. Now, I have started to put order in my life and do the things the I like to do. I feel like I always need a boyfriend for validation (pathetic, I know). I don’t want to feel like I need that validation anymore. The point is, he is now my “friend”, and I have been thinkin about getting back together with him, but I don’t think it will work. I reallly love him and we have the best time together, but sometimes I feel maybe someone else would be a better match…. HELPP!!!!
(I’m 21, he’s 24)- I know it seems like it should just be over, but when I’m with him, I forget all about this! !!!!!!!!! STRESS lol… thanks!
I think right now you’re just in a vulnerable spot and you think getting back together with him is going to make everything better. When really what you might find out is that it makes it worse again. Maybe you guys work better as friends. Personally I think the only time you should “get back” with your boyfriend or girlfriend is if you break up during a fight, when your emotions are running high and you may say something that you don’t really mean. A lot of people will say they wanna break up just to hurt the other person during a fight and they don’t really want to. I think that in your situation, you just don’t wanna be alone, and that’s not a good reason to get into a relationship with someone, especially someone who you have a history with. I’m just giving my honest advice.
