-- Posted by Anonymous at 6:35 am on Dec. 2, 2008 ok my ex broke up with me about a few weeks ago and then just a few days ago he was asking me back... i knew this would happen.. i still have feelings for him and he has always had them for me... the only thing is im really confused on what to do because im afraid if i get back with him ill get hurt. We have also been going through some rough times because it was a few months until a year and it is always tough through those times. We did work our differences until he did that. Any advice! -- Posted by L I F E S so G O O D at 6:37 am on Dec. 2, 2008 Don't go back with him. That's the last thing you want to do.   He is clearly using you. He wants to see if you still love him. Just lie to him. Tell you you already have a new boyfriend who actually cares for you. You may get hurt again in the long run. Chances are he will try and try and try again to prove to you that he really still has feelings, but don't let that change how you think about him. -- Posted by Chiefette at 6:37 am on Dec. 2, 2008 Things rarely work out if you break up once.  You will end up breaking up again.  Is it worth it? -- Posted by snowcone200 at 6:37 am on Dec. 2, 2008 why you feel you'll get hurt? -- Posted by Anonymous at 6:40 am on Dec. 2, 2008 idk i just feel like ill get hurt... maybe i shouldnt worry -- Posted by 911teen org at 6:51 am on Dec. 2, 2008 no -- Posted by BubbleCake at 9:27 am on Dec. 2, 2008 This is just my opinion but I'll give it too you anyways. Is the pain really worth it? He hurt you once before, do you want too give him the chance too do it again. Couples who break up and get back together don't work too often. Usually there is always feelings deep down about the time when they broke up. Sometimes they can't just like go of the past. I think its best if you could remain friends instead of getting into a relationship and allowing you too get hurt once again. Because there is always that chance it could happen. So talk too him as soon as you can and explain the situation and what you would like too do. What I said was just my opinion, you may have an entirely different opinion too me. If you get back with him, it really is up too you. Good luck. -- Posted by greenfrog04 at 9:57 am on Dec. 2, 2008 i agree. you may always resent him deep down for letting you go the first time. though you'll want to move foward it'll find its way of resurfacing. i know lots of couples who have just fallen into the trend of breaking up and getting back together. and most of the time they get back together because they're so used to each other and dont want to try and find someone new -- Posted by EyeoftheBeholder at 12:13 pm on Dec. 2, 2008 It's up to you really. If you really love him and want to be with him then you should do it. If, however, you feel like you can't trust him 100% then don't. My aunt and uncle we dating each other for a long time before they got into college. Once they started they broke up. They worked through it, and now they're married with kids and couldn't be happier. You just need to do what will make you happy.
