Boyfriend vs. ex

    I don't know what to do anymore.
    My ex keeps sending me texts and messages about how he still loves me and still wants to be with. At first I just brushed it off as no big deal, but the truth is... it is a big deal. When we broke up it was because he had to go to a group home for fighting... for me. I know not a good excuse but he didn't want me to have to put my life on hold for a year and a half. Well after we split I got with my boyfriend. We have been together for a year and two months (almost 3). I don't want to hurt him... not at all, but feelings for my ex keep coming back.
    any advice?

    Its kinda similar with me and my ex but just try try to think which one you love more and why you want them or which ever see my ex and i are still friends and now it feels like i still but i also remember what he did to me and the things that he told me so yaeh , but just remind yourself of why you love the man you are with now and why you are with him i dont know if that was much help but i tried let me know if it was! hope it goes well for ya

    Yeah it helped a bit.
    My ex did hurt me but he made the right decision. He always treated me good though. He never did anything wrong to me. He was always honest and we always had a wonderful time together. I could tell him everything... it's not like that now.

    I think mikes idea of trying to be single for a bit is great advice especially because you are only young, i believe if you have feelings for both mayb it's best to let both go and try to work out what your heart really wants. I broke up with an ex almost a year ago he hasn't stopped messenging me begging for me back, although he never hurt me some things he did do did and even although i still have some form of feelings for him i won't let things go back i believe theres someone out there who won't hurt me who's right for me and it's the same for everyone.

    I stand alone - things with my boyfriend aren't like that. I can still tell my ex everything.

    Thanks mike and rach. I should probably do that. I just didn't want to break his heart... and I know it will. I hate hurting people.

    I think sometimes as much as it hurts we have to hurt people for our own well being, everyones bound to get hurt sometime.

    I agree with Mike. you are fighting with yourself!! think about what you want and sort out your feelings for both guys. I hope that all goes well

    I read you writing about this and wanted to respond, good thing i found this post..
    i think you should be single for a bit, and honestly sit down and think WHO you have a better chance at a future with, WHO makes you happier, and WHO you REALLY love. you can only pick one.

    Yeah. maybe I am. I'm actually still taking french. I have II this semester. It's fun though. I think I am just going to be single for a while.

    ^That's a good decision, and I just wanted to tell you that I really admire you for it.

    I kind of have the same problem but all i can say is that if you feel like you should tell your bf and see what he says and you should tell your ex to stop (even if in a way you dont want him to) but if he doesnt stop then have your bf take care of it.

    Okay... well me and my boyfriend aren't together anymore. I broke up with him.
    My ex (matthew) came over last night though. He stayed the night with me and is going to again tonight...
