I was SO happy about finaly moving on. but then about 3 weeks later he dumped me…but then told me he took it back and he wanted to be with me, he would try harder, and he loved me. But then he totally ignored me in school and wouldnt answer my messages. one of my guy friends who is also friends with my boyfriend talked to him about it. He said that he said he loves me but needs to focus on grades and maybe we could try again in january. if he gave me up like that is it worth it to try to be with him again? i really like him, but should I wait around? I’m so confused

After a breakup though, I strongly suggest meeting new guys. Even to just have new guy friends. This great free video shows you how to talk to guys and make ANY guy you could ever want to be yours: http://becomingloved.com

I was with a guy for 5 monthes. it went from a summer romance to just a long distance relationship. he broke up with me three weeks ago.. over text. we had a fight the day before and then he asked for space and didnt text me till the following morning. he said “i don’t think we are going to work out.” i went completely numb. because our relationship had been toxic and i had been planning on ending it. but he beat me to it. i still cared about him and i was his first girl, so i told him we should just go back to being friends.
But this didnt go all that well. Because when he broke up with me. i felt like he didnt care, when we talked he would just talk about how it affected him, and how terrible he felt. it felt and still feels like hes waiting for me to get back together with him. but our relationship was so toxic thats the only reason i havent. he tried to make me feel guilty even though he’s the one who dumped me. at first we just made small talk over text but when he wouldnt text me, we talked over facebook, and when he stopped responding on that, he emailed me. thats when i realised he’s the one making it hard to let go. and he just is holding onto me because he feels guilty and wants me back. the only reason he hasn’t said anything is because he’s just as stubborn as i am and he’s hurting because he knows he broke my heart. I have tried everything to get over him, but what works the best for me is distraction; like school and hanging with friends. Because the day he broke up with me all my friends were really supportive. they hugged me and completely showed empathy and understanding. Because in reality no boy is going to ruin your life and lots of people are and have gone through breakups and getting your heart broken. It’s ok to feel sad, but don’t let your sadness take control of you. It’s ok to have a girls night and cry and get out the tears, but doing it over and over again isnt right. HE OR SHE DOES NOT OWN YOU! you lived without them before you CAN do it again. Don’t be alone or depressed all the time that just makes it harder. dont stalk his fb or read the texts or look at the pictures a million times. because you are stronger then that. and it just makes you miss who that special person was suppossed to be not who they really were. if you were meant to be together you still would be. use your new found strength to try something new, or to power something your good at. like sports if your athletic, if you like writing pour it into your next novel or poem with your new found spare time. if yourr an artist use ur strength as your inspiration for a new piece. if you like music DO NOT LISTEN TO A MILLION BREAKUP SONGS! use your strength to write an awesome song like kelly clarksons song stonger or avril lavignes song freak out. or find a new band or artist. If your into nature go for a hike. if you like to shop go shop, buy an outfit you look hot in and makes you feel good! if your social go MEET SOMONE NEW Go hang with your friends! chances are they miss you and want to make you feel better!! if you like to read go buy a new best selling novel!
Try something new even! like yoga or sculpting!
There are soooo many things you can do with your new found freedom, spare time, and new found strength! find yours!
