I Need Relationship Advice?

I have been dating this guy for a little over a year now, he is the PERFECT boyfriend he literally treats me like I am a princess and he loves me so much and I love him, well atleast I think I do? I mean I know I should but the terrible thing is I often find myself thinking about my ex, missing him, etc. My ex and I dated off and on for about 4 years (it was very complicated) I broke his heart we got back together he broke mine and things never got better I guess...but I still get that butterfly feeling if I see him and I smile if he ever texts me...so I know it sounds like omg girl get back with your ex like common sense hello!? But it's never that easy...he wanted to be with me after we broke up but I was against it because he did alot of mean things to me..so now awhile later, I am thinking of how I feel about him and I kinda wanna get back with him but he doesn't want to. He is embarassed basically to stay with the same girl for such a long period of time, i duno DRAMA please helpI Need Relationship Advice?
Emily, let me start by saying you should never start a relationship when you're still not over your last one. Now, about this whole issue. I really don't think you should get back together with your ex. You even said it yourself: ';He is embarrassed basically to stay with the same girl for such a long period of time'; What does that tell you about him? Unless you want to climb back on that emotional roller coaster, it is not a good idea.


And here you have a guy who loves you and cherishes you right in front of your eyes. If its up to deciding between them, stay with your boyfriend. But I feel like you made him a rebound boyfriend. (I could be wrong)


And it sounded like you weren't in love with him.


Emily, What will make YOU happy? Don't put too much thought into this question, whatever your heart tells you. Following your heart is the best thing. Life is short, do what you have to!


Good luck with everything!I Need Relationship Advice?
an ex is an ex for a reason. i dont know what that reason is because i dont know you.





my advice: move on and stay with your current. resisting your ex may be difficult at times, but if you havent worked out (twice) then the likely hood is, being with him will only bring heart break.
No it will be the same bull sh*t. Just try to move on.
I know exactly what you mean. me and my bf broke up a few months ago i see him all the time as we have the same friend group and when i see him im like omg i reali love you i know i should be over him but i can't!it sounds so pathetic when i tell my mates but you can't help how you feel can you?! i have been with lads since we broke up but i can't help thinking about him when im with them. the only advice i can give you is follow your heart. life is to short. go for it! x
That sounds like a red flag relationship to me. You don't want to go back to a relationship that was off and on, constantly hurting each other. Especially if he can't see himself with the same girl for a long time. I've been in a relationship for almost 2 years and I still think about my exes. When you date someone you develop a very strong friendship, especially after 4 years. I think you will always have feeling for him, but you have to ask yourself if you want to go back to a destructive relationship. Do you want to go back to being hurt and unsure of how long it will last time?
