Hello
Looking for some advice. Hope you can help.
My boyfriend ended things a month ago after 3 years together. He was the kindest most loving person I have ever met and told me I was the love of his life. Long story short, whilst it was a great relationship I had issues with black moods. He was very patient in the early days but his tolerance gradually decreased. We'd had a couple of previous occasions where we'd nearly split up but he forgave me.
This time I froze him out on holiday for a couple of days. By the time I'd come out of my funk, his mind was made up we were over. He tells me he still loves me and misses me. I did the whole begging, pleading, promising to change and whilst he was sympathetic, all he would say is he didn't know what to do. Up until a week ago he was responding at great length to messages. He even initiated contact and invited me to dinner. While I was there he was very affectionate and it was like we were still a couple but there was no talk of a reconciliation.
Last week during a long heartfelt online chat, I again tried to win him round and again he said he didn't know what to say or do. I told him that if he was going to change his mind he would have by now but I understood. Whilst I didn't actually tell him I'd given up I felt that the next contact needed to come from him. He's now joined match.com and hasn't got in touch again.
Should I give up or could there still be a chance ? If there may be should I leave him to contact me or message him now and again just to let him know I still care ?
Thank you
