My boyfriend and I just broke up. He tells me he still loves me but I don't know what to do...?!?

Well when we broke up he acted as if he didn't want to do it but he had to. I ask him to explain but he doesn't know how to be open with his emotions. He still stares at me with love in his eyes, tells me he misses me, and even loves me. I ask him if he wants to be with me and his reply is constantly "no". I don't understand....I told him I love him and I miss him but I can't speak to him anymore. It's the only way I know how to get over these things. Did I do the right thing? Does he really love me?

    He broke up for a reason, maybe someone else and he doesn't want you to know about it because he feels bad that he's hurt your feelings.

    Take some time to reflect on what you gained from the relationship. What are some things you learned from him and things you learned about yourself while with him. What are some things you really liked about him and some things you really didn't like about him.

    Take what you learned from this relationship and add it to the next. Even in relationships with people that are just friends (male and female) along with the adults in your life.

    Until you actually have a ring on your finger you really shouldn't focus on what was or could have been or should I try to work this out. Have fun and learn all that you can from every relationship

    To truly love someone is to care about them to the very depth of who and what they are, what they believe, what they like, what they dislike, how they respond under pressure. It's so much more than what's their favorite color? Who's their favorite musician? All time favorite movie?

    It's knowing that they don't like fruit flavors in their colas, no cherry or lemon cokes. It's knowing just what temperature she likes her bubble bath. It's knowing that he prefers wearing cotton and why. It's knowing the perfect birthday present when they didn't even know what to ask for. It's looking at each other across a room and sharing a private joke without saying a word.

    Loving someone is the ability to see past the polite response to "How's it going?" and knowing that they really aren't "Fine, thanks."

    I think you did the right thing. I doesn't make sense to tell you all those nice things then say he doesn't want to be with you. He sounds very confused and immature and definitely not ready for a real relationship. You want to find a man that knows what he wants and that's mature. I think you did the right thing. Hang in there. =)

    If he loved you, he would be with you. Unless there is a certain issue that makes it otherwise. Tell him you need the truth, that you need closure. You diserve that. If it hurts you to speak to him or be around him, then I think you are making the right decision in distancing yourself. Surround yourself with good freinds and good laughs. If he really loves you, he will come back, or atleast have the audacity to tell you what is bothering him.

    All the luck to you.

    If you are the whiny clingy type constantly asking for reassurance, he might have told you no as a way of expressing his annoyance.

    If that's not the case, then it's time to move on.

    He doesnt love you--if he did he wouldntve broken up with you.

    He's just TELLING you he still loves you because:

    1. he doesnt want to be The Bad Guy

    2. he still likes the idea of a booty call now and then

    3. he's controlling you.

    NO MAN IS WORTH YOUR TEARS!

    Have a snak-pak (mmm, pudding), go buy a new pair of shoes and GET TO STEPPIN'!

    Sounds like he is trying to have his cake and eat it too. He probably does love you. He probably thinks that he can keep you on hold while he goes out partying with as many other girls as he wants. If he doesn't want to be with you now - and ONLY you now - then you should find someone who does.

    You are absolutely right. Don't talk to him anymore. If he's going to tell you all this stuff and say he doesn't want to be together, it's as if he's stringing you along until he finds someone else.

    MOVE ON GIRLIE! You deserve someone who's going to say and act like they love you and treat you well, not someone who's going to be like him!

  • depends on your age , if your young it might have something to do with his parents not wanting him to have a girlfriend while in school OR just maybe there is something about you they don't like, but he does not want

    to hurt your feelings & tell you what his parents think.

    If not then maybe he's just not sure if he's ready for a serious relationship & needs time to sort this whole thing out.

    good luck
