Just like you undercover007, I too have broken up with my ex several times, and we have always gotten back together (8 months post BU), we weren't deep into the relationship before like we just were for a year, with talk of getting married. I am the one with communication problems along with anger issues that have caused the breakup now...I am wanting to get healthy for me first and maybe down the road we may be able to work things out, but right now he's on rebound, 1 week after we broke up. Like you, a part of me knows he still loves me, he's just tired and worn out and hurt. I know I still love him, but I am taking my "hope" and continuing down the path of healing. It's good to have hope, just don't let it stunt your healing. I feel for you!

^^^^ IMO who cares if he thinks your being selfish for mentioning what you wanted...did he consider being selfish when he dumped you? That's how I feel about my ex and wanting to be friends after he dumped me. They can't have it both ways.

That was suppose to be "dumpee". Not dumper.

day 48 me, 72 for him...I'm the dumper, so why can't I move on? Want to call him really bad, but not going to, why should I when he never responded to any other attempts I've made. And we ended it amicably.
