Breakups

Don't say "I'm breaking up with you". Don't dump your him/her. Just start gradually spend less time talking with him/her. After a little while, you can start declining nicely if he/she asks you out. You can either let it go at that, or break it to him/her then. Mind you, it will still hurt both of you, but if you do it to him/her gently and gradually like that, it can be much easier.

* You answered your own question by saying 'we're both notorious for hiding our feelings,' and that's probably why you split up in the first place. Communication is even more important than sex because by communicating and expressing one's feelings it humanizes them. There is the possibility your ex boyfriend is not in love with you and someone has to start to communicate so it might as well be you. Pick a time when you are alone and just be honest with your ex boyfriend and if he can't say one way or the other if he loves you then you have two options A) Stay friends or, B) move on from this relationship and get back into the dating circuit.

write her a note and tell her how you feel good luck

ok i dont know who wrote that but they obviously didnt pay attention to the question. the question was how do you get you ex-BOYFRIEND back. the note thing may or may not work, it depends on the guy, i suggest u do something that reminds him why he went with u in the first place.

I can answer this question from experience. My boyfriend wanted to kiss me but i didnt want to kiss him because i was to nervous. If that's the case then tell him your not ready yet. That's what i told my boyfriend of 1 month and he was completely respectful and didnt zing one on me. Tho, to answer this question correctly i would have to know the reason why you don't want to kiss him. No matter what the reason is you need to have a talk with him as to why you don't want to kiss him. Just be totally honest with him and don't hold back. Let him know how you really feel about it and that should help to work things out.

He loves you still but has to much of a BIG man ego that he cant face that he loves you still. and still has feeling for you. Friends are a big part of a mans ego if he lets his guard dowm to look at you with his friends, then they give him a hard time. so that why he stares when they are not around he wishes he could when they are around but he;s a man that why!!!!!!!!!!!!

It depends, if she seems like the lovey dovey romantic type then go for it, however if she is the complete opposite then you should ask her opinion on gestures of thought beforehand.

A man will say i love you all the time to a woman he really likes. I think the main reason is because they feel pressured in saying i love you, and if they don't they'll lose you. Just give your man time to figure out when the best time to settle down is...tell him you want to have a family or other things to let him know. If you really love him he will get that you want to settle down.

It depends entirely on the person and the situation. Sometimes they keep in touch because they want to stay friends, and that's all.

Sometimes, it's because they still have feelings for them. They may not realize it, or notice it, but keeping that last bit of contact can be a method of trying to hang on to them.

That is probably the way behavior toward partners was modeled for him by his own parents. He will not outgrow it. Dump him and find someone who respects you. He is obviously not a boy friend. He's a good deal less than that.

This is the real realy answer! People need it to live, it dosent care about love.

girls flip you hear were a lot of make-up but colors that make it look like a very little flirt with other guys but not to much. boys do not flirt with other girls and try to make eye countact with the girl and alway make the boy she is talking to look bad

this seems difficult. but as i can see that this boy is fed up. he clearly misses you. and wants to be back with you, and i think he regreted dumping you , maybe you should talk to him and see what he has to say.

you can't really make up cheating. Its all about earning your trust back. Many people cheat and try to make the relationship work but it never does because you need trust to have a real commited relationship. To gain trust back you may just want to start off as friends again..see where the relationship goes from there

I just wanted to add something to that, theres nun like make sex but that the ponit . THE 1 STEP IS TO TELL HIM SO HE WANT HAVE TO FOUND OUT ANYWAY LIKE FORM A FRIEND . STEP 2 SIT HIM DOWN AND TELLN WHAT HAPPEN AND WHY IT HAPPENED I KNO ITS GOING TO BE HARD TELL ING HIM BUT JUST SUCK IT UP AND TELL HIM.STEP 3 TELL HIM HOW YOU WHERE WRONG AND HOW YOU NOW IT IS SHOUCKING TO HIM THAT YOU WOULD DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT TO HIM JUST TALK IT OUT AND IF HE UNDERSTAND WHERE YOUR COMEING FORM OK BUT IF NOT JUST MOVE ON OR YOU CAN EARN HIS TRUST BACK!ya

You have to think to yourself, was he/she actually right for me. Avoid seeing this person as much as possible until your over the break up. Go out to town with friends for a fresh start maybe you'll find mr right there. make sure that person who dumped you can see you having a good time with other girls/boys so they'll get jelous. hope this has helped! xx

friendship usually gets broken when u dont have the right friend or maybe sometimes u have misunderstandings and u ignore it or just get mad about things that u dont really need to get angry at but all this can be solved if u just say a sorry or try to see things the way they tend to see :)

• Your ex girlfriend wants you back so she is flirting with other young men to try and make you jealous and realize that you do love her. It sounds as if you do love her or you would not have asked the question. If you do love her and had problems in your relationship then try dating again and working out your differences. If you don't love her then ignore her when she tries to make you jealous and move on in your life.

It probably means subconsciencly, that you two might be having problems or your afraid to lose him for any reason. Just relax and talk to him about how he really feels about you. But dont bug him about it just talk. Im sure that will ease your mind a little.

Prank him good. Egg him, frame him, anything that makes him cry. lol Depends how bad the lie is. From not-bad to very bad: -be angry -dump him -slap him -do [whatever he did to you] back -all of the above

Absolutely not. If you are still in love with him and still want to be with him then you two should be together....if he feels the same way too. [:

ILL try it this other person will prop.say and prop.do anything too keep you out of his site and mind so whatch your self alot depends on how you two broke up tallin him the truth and letting know how you fell is the best way honesty can be your best policy would need more info on this good luck whatch your back around thee other girlthey can be diseatfull.

Been there... on both sides. A lot of people want to feel the gratification that what they have done (breaking up with you) is OK with you. They may not want to have that guilty feeling hanging over them. Best bet is to move on.

Here are opinions and advice: * Do you remember the things that made you fall for him in the first place? Can you remember how you felt about him the day you married him? Maybe all you need to do is start over. Let all the things that are hurting you go. Try to find one another again. Find what it is you like and love about him. Go on a date. Try to respark the feelings. It's never too late. Don't give up hope. * There is no easy answer to this. If you do nothing else, buy and read this book: "Too Good to Leave, Too Bad to Stay" by Mira Kirshenbaum. This book truly helped me answer the questions you are trying to answer. It takes you step by step through a decision process, including specific ways to measure how much, if any, love is left between you, and if that love is still viable. * I've heard it said many times that if you even have to ask yourself if you are still in love, you're not. * Love is a choice, not a feeling. The feeling that is referred to as love is more or less a reaction to certain stimulation. Love is giving, love is kindness, love is selflessness. Love is not something you take, but rather the reaction you feel once you give. * It would be argued by many, including myself, that if you have posed such a question you invariably already know its answer. What I mean is that being in love means not wondering if you are or if you aren't. Love is unconditional, thus if you doubt your own enough to ask, I am afraid it is already too late. I came across this website today and read some interesting answers about love. I read one that I am inclined to agree with. Perhaps because at heart I am a hopeless idealist. The philosophical side of me needs to believe that, like the one person stated, "if you have to ask the question..." I understand as a married man for over 10 years, I think it is hard to maintain that initial "spark" we once had in the beginning of our marriage. Between two professionals working 40 hours a week, the commuting, children, trying to juggle the other tasks of the week, you are lucky if you have three hours to spend together. But it seems to me that though, the "spark" may not be there like it was in the beginning, it is replaced with a deeper love based upon mutual respect and trust that has been earned over the course of the marriage. * There is always hope. I ask myself the question everytime I am hurt or angry, confused or frustrated with my partner. I think it is when you stop wondering and asking yourself that question is the day that you stop caring anymore and your answer becomes clear to you. That is when it is too late. * When you walk by this person do you want them to notice you? Do you always want to talk to this person? Do you always look at them and hope that they look at you? If so, I believe you are still in love. If you don't want to talk to this person a lot anymore then your not in-love so forget about it. * You could perhaps talk to a guidance counsellor who could help you assess the situation. It is good to have objective opinions. * I think that the opposite of love is not hate but indifference. If you care whether leaving the person would hurt them or not, then you still love them. If you don't want them to be with somebody else, then you still love them. And if you don't care then you don't love them. * I don't think that questioning if you love a person means you are already out of love with him or her. You have every right to question your beliefs (about anything), but that doesn't mean you don't believe them just by questioning. It's a good thing to question - it just means that you are trying to get to know yourself better. Over time, I think love for a person you are in a relationship with changes, and this can be mistakened for falling out of love. You may no longer feel as attracted to the person as you did on your first date, but that turns into a more compassionate love - which is also love. Be careful not to mistaken changes in feelings for falling out of love. Also, try to pinpoint if there are specific things that are bothering you lately, which again might be mistakened as no longer loving the person. Perhaps just addressing those specific problems will rekindle your feelings of love. * Love is not something you can touch but that emotion that you feel within yourself. As a husband for 17 years I can state that love is nothing but a mere emotion that we feel. My wife has good times as well as bad. She can be happy some days and sad some others. I believe true love can only be measured by your actions to your partners problems and feelings. As an example my wife last year told me that she was not sure if she loved me anymore. After careful reflection of what she was telling me I figured out that she was not happy with me since she felt that I did not appreciate her enough nor showed her enough of my love fowards her. Understand that the only reason why we are still together today is "only" because I took the time to listen to her before the problem got worse. Sometimes we can be egotistic, selfish, conceded and many more things that are wives state to us. Husbands need to make efforts to listen to there wives because they are different than we are. They truly might not be happy and doubt there love because they have no companion to communicate with. In my experience it is always good to talk things out before its to late. Don't ever think that because you doubt yourself about your love for your spouse this means that you dont love him or her. It might just mean that your dialogue needs to improve. * I thought I fell out of love with my wife and left her for another woman. I got bored with the same old routine and fell "in love" with another women of the complete opposite personality. After time away, and having the chance to experience someone different, I reflected on what it was about my wife that made me fall in love with her in the first place. Once I started focusing on the positives, versus negatives I found that I fell in love with my wife again, only for her to fall out of love with me. Love is more than feelings of infatuation and the giddiness that comes with it. True love is much deeper and accepts all of the other person, good and bad. Everyone is always looking for waht they don't have, instead of accepting and being happy with what they do have. * This depends on what you are asking. Are you asking if YOU are in love or if BOTH OF YOU are in love? People get a little silly when it comes to love, expecting that if it's real they will feel it all the time, but as human creatures we don't work that way. What about the rest of the full set of human emotions we must experience? The truth is that we can only really FEEL one emotion at a time. When you are angry you feel anger, not love. When you are sad you feel sadness, not love. When you are joyful you feel joy ... well, to some people that's love, but my point is you have to leave some room for real life and the other emotions you are going to experience too. If you want to spend time with someone and share loving feelings, then you are in love. If they want the same thing, then it's likely BOTH of your are in love. It's incredibly simple. Are you going to stay in love? Now that's more complicated. That's a personal choice and takes effort and it's up to each of you. * If you are having doubts about being in love than you are probably falling out of love. You just need to listen carefully to your heart. If you are in true love trust me you'll know. * Love is a decision. Perhaps you are simply working out struggles in your marriage relationship. I say, give it a chance and try to work it out. I've been married 34 years. We had our trying times, that's for sure, but it has turned out to have been worth hanging in there. Now I know what true love is, and I'm more satisfied now than I've ever been in my whole life. For me, it was worth the commitment to one another that it took to work things through together in order to find what we have now.

Start by going out with friends and be social! The more people you are around the more people you meet and the more likely it will be you'll meet that special someone.
