Hello,

This is my first post here. I am facing a big decision and just don't know what to do. All advice very welcome.

A few months ago I split with my bf. We'd been dating for about 9 months and had had several splits during that time. It all got very nasty and we were both hurt.

Now he's back in touch. Has told me he has been chatting to woman from internet on phone. Now she wants to meet him. He has asked me if there is any chance of us being together or not. He says he still loves me and wants me. Basically, he says if I definitely want him back he won't meet her. But if there is not a chance he will go and meet her.

The thought of him with someone else upsets me but I am not certain that I want to start seeing him again.

I just don't know what to do. I had my reasons for breaking up. I do care for him but, at the same time, I know it's not fair to keep him hanging on.

What to do??

its not always easy to see ex's move on even if you were the one to break things up

Like you said you had your reasons so keep those in mind and LET him move on. If you give him hope while you're not sure then it'll make things worse and he'll feel like you lead him on.

You mentioned that while dating, you split up several times and it got very nasty. Remind yourself of this and all the reasons why you broke up. As hard as it can be dealing with an ex boyfriend who is dating again, that's no reason to get back together.

Let him go Rainbow Girl!

He´s doing a little of blackmail, it works only if you are weak enough.
My ex bf did the same to me once. I fell, then he did it again, then I refused him and let him go, then he called back telling it had been all a lie to get me back.....whatever this strategy sounds poor.

You had reasons to break up, fair enough. Keep them in mind, think of those nasty moments and of course you do not want them back.
Give him the chance to go and meet this woman. You will find someone else that may suit you better.

All the best!

I think he is trying to manipulate you into seeing him again. You have to decide what is best for you in the long run. If you want him back and think you can make it work, then go for it. If you don't, then let him go to meet this other girl. You will move on and find someone else yourself too eventually. But, I really don't think he has an interest in this girl if he would ask you what to do. He's trying to "pull" you back in.

The ball's in your court, so to speak.

I agree with preciosa. If a girl did this to me, I probably would have told her - to just go ahead. If I have gone through so many splits during a 9 month period, I don't think it will work out again. There probably be more splits while you are together again. It will only make things worse for you and possibly him.
It will hurt initially, but later on you will think that you had made a wise decision by letting him go and not see him again.
