getting back together with an ex?
i moved in with my ex-husband to get out the abusive relationship that i was in with my son's dad. i've always loved my ex-husband and always will. when i first moved in i told him that i really wanted him back, but that it was up to him on whether he wanted me back or not too. he told me for about 2 weeks that i needed to find a new boyfriend. well now that i've maybe found a new boyfriend, my ex-husband is telling me that he wants me back. we are really good together, but i'm soo confused and i don't know what to do. any advice?
my ex and i divorced because i was stupid and cheated on him and got pregnant with my son. i lived with my son's dad for 2 years before i said enough was enough of the emotional, verbal, and mental abuse. my ex offered me a place to stay so i could get out of the situation i was in and so i could start over again.

Stay with someone who loves u. Some who confuses u about how they feel, will usually have u feeling like that the rest of ur life. You'll always be thinking about that. Don't stay with someone who doesn't love you.

Well I don't know why you became ex's in the first place, which could make a difference if no one has changed at all. I wouldn't go right out and marry him again, but I would try a relationship again definitely. He sounds just like my boyfriend. My bf went through a small depression and was very stressed so we broke up because he said he just didn't want a relationship. But he was still always there for me and my best friend in the world. (Like your ex, because he's still been there for you since he took you in) It wasn't until I finally decided to start dating again that he realized he might really lose me forever. He got really nervous because he didn't realize he had feelings for me until he started getting jealous I guess. He thought we'd just break up if we got back together so he was in denial about still having feelings for me. We decided to try again, but very slowly. That was about a month ago and we are happier than we've ever been. The decision to try again was not taken lightly, and we are really communicating better than we ever did in the first place. You sound like you want to be with him, and that that is the relationship you want. Just really talk to him. Make sure you find every reason why you didn't last before, because there might be hidden ones, and then work through them. If he wants to do that too then you can find a way to be even better than you were before. Sometimes people just go in denial, and it takes a wake up call like you getting a boyfriend, for them to realize what they might be missing. Good luck!

It is time for a time-out on boyfriends. You have just come out of an abusive relationship, this is not a time to jump back in the the dating game.
You are still injured from the last relationship and you need time to heel and love yourself. I man is not going to fix the physical and mental pain you have been through. All the emotions you are feeling is making you unable to think clearly.
I would get some counseling and get back on your feet, be independent.
Get you know yourself again. Take time to love yourself. Good Luck!

It sounds to me as if he doesnt want you...but doesnt want anyone else to have you either. Which isnt fair! But there are alot of guys who do this...
Dont let him think that he can call the shots whenever it takes his fancy. Dont take that crap from him :)
You mentioned that you've maybe found a new boyfriend? Try it out and see how it goes. It could be so much better than being with ur ex!
Good luck :)

Be careful and don't rush into either. If he honestly wants you back he'll start to show it, not just say it. You know him better than we do. Watch for signs to see if he's just jealous/ lonely or if he honestly misses you. You may still love him, but are you in love with him? If no then it's best to just move on. Either way you are probably going to get hurt and hurt someone so make sure you're set on your choice before you do anything.

I would take things slow but try to work it out. You probably caught him off guard when you said this and thats why it took him awhile to realize he wanted you back as well. Try going on dates with him and see if you still do want to be with each other after that.

it won't work out. people say they will try to work it out but once you've been( or the x has been ) with another, forget it!!
