    Sounds like you kinda are obsessing.

    I would just get away for a while, and meet a new boy. One where you both are loyal and meet halfway together in a relationship.

    Best of luck <3

    I think that you dont have enough people to hang out with. I think that your getting bored and the ideal of hanging out with him sounds great cus you have nothing else to do and that is what you are used to doing. You have to find more friends - stop hanging out with him because it wont be the same you guys arent going to put the same energy into having fun because your no longer a couple - its not exciting anymore .

    I think you might be confusing love with love. Think about it, if you love and care about him, then you love him. Those feelings are hard to get rid of. But if you love him in a deeper way, more emotionally, then maybe you are INlove with him,. There is a difference. You are INlove with your bf, but you love your friends. Be careful not to confuse the two. Hope this helps sweetie!

    Sounds like me and my ex. Its the chase you're in love with.

    The thrill of seeing if you can win him over one more time!

    Try speed-dating, you get the thrill of the chase without any of the 'strings attached' clauses. I went with a few friends for a laugh, it really helped me get over my obsession with my ex. :]

    Obsession. Definately. Go see your shrink.

    I believe that it is more obsession you need to look for new guys.

    Hmmm...that's tricky. I've never been bored with anyone. But what do I know! I always get dumped!

    You just either like the attention, or want things you don't have.

    It's not love, trust me.

  • I think its lust?
