My ex and I have been broken up for about 2 1/2 years. He was my first love, and my first everything else. He broke up with me because he wanted to be by himself. After about two months of no contact, we finally started to talk and hang out with each other again. A month after that we started to sleep with each other, I didn't get my hopes up cause I knew it was just sex. When we were together he showed me affection like kissing me, and hugging me, and little things like that. After we broke up and started messing around, he never wanted to kiss me or hug me or anything. To him it was just sex and thats it. Then suddenly he starts to hug me more, and kiss me, put his hand on my leg, basically acting more like a boyfriend than a friend. Technically the golden rule for friends with benefits is just the sex and nothing else. No kissing, no real affection, just plain booty call. He knows I have been talking to another guy that I used to have a crush on, and everytime I talk to him about the other guy, he gets all jealous and stuff. Then I ask him why does he even care, he was the one that broke up with me. He doesn't answer, he just looks away.
I don't want to get my hopes up about a reconciliation, I know he talks to other girls, and is probably messing around with one of them(dont worry we use protection) so I dont know why he would even act this way with me. Sorry so long, any advice is appreciated!!!!!!!!!!!
