Hi. I am new to EnotAlone and would like some advice from y'all about how I can get my exboyfriend back. Let me fill you in on what's been happening this past year.
Erik and I dated in the fall and the relationship ended around Christmas time '03. He broke it off saying that I was always putting him on the hotseat and yet mentioned that he will always love me as a person and that will never change. he also said that he still wanted to be friends. yeah i know its the typical line but that's that. so we kept our distance for some months during the spring when we were both at different universities (he was at UCBerkeley and i was at UCSD). Well Erik and I met while working together at a restaurant in our hometown. Well its summer and we're both back working at that same restaurant. We've since talked, hugged, laughed and such. He's with another girl now and I just came off another relationship.
And the folks at the restaurant, esp the female waitresses/hostesses, are notorious for their gossip. I'm sure you've all dealt with that in your own lives. and boy does it suck! it especially sucks cuz Erik and i are the center of their gossip for some reason and again Erik feels like he's on the hot seat... Which is NO good. Right? And as a result of the tension, he blows up and gets mad at me...
Well to make a long story short, Erik said on Tuesday that he wants to still be friends. He seemed sincere so i agreed to give our friendship another whirl. But frankly I'm feeling very standoffish and guarded right now. I don't want my feelings toyed with and I don't want to have to hurt again. But ladies and gents, I got to admit I got it BAD for my exboyfriend. I've tried over the past 7 or so months to put a kabosh on it.
So what does everyone say??? do you think that there is a way that i can be friends w/ my ex? get him back? and if so... HOW??? i'd love to hear anything y'all have to share... PLZ SHARE!!!!!!!!!!
