Funny how some of us come around when people leave: we could have been warm or more loving or more giving, but we weren’t. Why now? Is it the chase, or the old “You don’t know what you had until it’s gone” song? For now, my advice to you is: you had your chance, now behave yourself. Not because she’ll see how much she missed you, but because it’s the right thing to do, and what mature, loving people do when they truly want someone else to be happy. So be a real friend and gentleman as you said you were and let her enjoy the relationship she is in. Should it end, then take that opportunity to tell her how you feel (if you still do). For now, any act on your part to play games is out of integrity and manipulative. Not a great way to rekindle love, never mind the question of how will you be able to trust her or yourself again?

Blessings!

You missed your opportunity with this girl! Showing her a ring tyou thought about giving her? Really bad form my man! She is happy in another relationship and you are suffering a bad case of the “What if?”

Let the girl go and you move on and find what is meant for you? Quit flirting with the girl! You are only creating a drama that when it unfolds, no one will emerge as the winner…

Dear Leo,

Rather than trying to backtrack with your ex, who has moved on, why not move on yourself? There was a reason, your temperature, your problems, what have you, that you broke up and it was probably for the best.

If you can respect your ex’s current relationship, there’s no reason you can’t continue to be friends, but it seems rather manipulative to show her a ring and talk to her about how things could be now that she’s moved on.

Sincerely,

Procede cuatiously. If she were all that happy with the new guy she would not be seeing you. I understand not being warm, I grew up in a cold distant and abusive family. I have struggled with showing my emotions all of my life.

All you can do is tell her how you feel, and if she takes you back be sure to open up and be warmer. If she tells you that she just wants to be friends, accept it and move on.

I’m wondering why she’s even meeting up with you all the time if she’s so happy with her new guy. It doesn’t make sense to me, unless she’s still (like you said) attracted / interested in you.

Then again, she could just see it as a friendship thing, since there’s been no kissing, touching, sexing, etc. between you two.

In order for you to know whether or not there’s anything there, you need to make a move (at the right time) If she goes with it, the attraction’s still there (The desire to BE with you still may not be there, but at least the attraction is)

However, if she REJECTS you when you make a move, it’s time to give it up.

She broke up with you and moved on. The sooner you accept this, the better.
