Question What does he want here? - February 26th 2011, 08:17 PM

So.... Im in a strange situation here. I dumped my last boyfriend because he wanted different things, wanted something more serious than i did. I had been pondering it for a while, but apparently it affected him more than i expected. I broke off most communication with him, let him know it was over. Well now its about 2 months later and he has a new girlfriend (who has been his best friend for years).

He recently gave me a call and wanted to know if we could still be friends ect. Now im cool with all of that and don't have any feelings for him anymore. But i think he is trying to make me jealous, he told me how serious his gf and him are and how great of a relationship they have. I told him that i was glad he was happy with someone and that i didnt regret breaking up, just the way it happened.

Now somehow he manages to work into this conversation how pretty and nice i am, that he doesnt hold anything against me, and that i was too special not to be friends with.

Im horribly confused here. Im not looking for a relationship, im single and happy. Id like to be friends with the guy, he is pretty cool. His best friend who is now his girlfriend is genuinely happy with him as he is with her. Do you guys think he honestly wants to just be friends with me, if this is even possible?

It -is- possible he wants to be just friends. He could be trying to cheer you up a bit by telling you you're nice and pretty, but you know him, so it's up to you to decide if he's that kind of person.

If you want to be friends with him, go for it. Don't let him go too far if he ever tries, for your sake, his and his new girlfriends'. It's no problem to be friends with your ex. For example: my parents are divorced, but they go along just fine.





Stupid questions do not exist!
Or do they? Nah. Ask and you shall be answered!

My parents have been divorced for 12 years. If you're stuck in the middle, feel free to PM me!

Maybe he does just genuinely want to be friends, and he could have been telling you that you're pretty and nice because he felt guilty about talking about his new girlfriend to you or to reassure you that you'll find someone yourself soon. But having said that, maybe he does regret what happened between you and wants things to return to the way they were. I suppose that without getting into his mind, there is no way of definitely knowing his intentions, but if he does want you to be boyfriend and girlfriend again, then i'm sure there will be signs sometime in the near future
