Hey there everybody!. So I'm new here and in some need of some advice. I do apologize in advance cause this may be a bit long, but I will try to shorten it up as much as possible!. So here's what's going on....
So my ex boyfriend and I have been broken up for about 2 years after being together for 3. Everything was going well for us but towards the end we were arguing a lot and he finally made the decision to end things between us. I took the break up VERY hard. I do greatly admit though I over reacted and he even told me one night shortly after our breakup that if I had not reacted the way I did, he was gonna give me another chance. But whatever, things were done and we both eventually moved on. He actually ended up immediately getting into another relationship (within about a week after breaking up with me) but they were extremely on and off. Would break up at least twice a month if not more.... He would reach out to me every so often and we got together a couple times since our breakup but nothing sexual ever took place!....and usually afterwards he would disappear for a while again (when they would usually get back together).
So very recently (a couple weeks ago or so) I reached out to him....just had a question for him....and things took off!. I found out that him and his girlfriend were officially done and he actually asked why I hadn't stayed in contact. I found that to be a bit weird but just let it roll off my shoulder. We started texting (him initiating mostly) almost all day every day, hanging out.....and we did end up sleeping together a few times :-(. One night very recently we arranged to get together and actually hung out all night. We talked about a lot of things.....and the night couldn't have been better!. We ordered dinner, watched a few movies, and mostly laughed all night.....but towards the end of the night he started coming off kind of weird. Wasn't very talkative, seemed like something was on his mind, etc.... I asked him a few times if everything was okay and he always replied that it was. I asked if I had done anything wrong and he said "no not at all!" and smiled. He told me I had to stop worrying that I was doings something wrong (which I do a lot) because I wasn't doing anything wrong at all. So I let it go and we continued our night. We also talked a lot about us. Why we didn't work, what we could have done to make us work, why we could never get back together, etc.... He had told me that we are both the same people and if we were to get together, we would eventually break up again. After he said that I just looked at him and he goes "your dissapointed aren't you?". I told him the truth. I told him that I wasn't lying when I said I would always care about him (told him that when we broke up), and if the chance presented itself that it WAS possible for us to get back together, that I'd probably jump at the chance....but he told me there was no chance whatsoever. So anyway he asked if I was spending the night and said I was more than welcome to.....so being the stupid one that I am apprently, I did. Another big mistake.... My feelings came back for him full force cause not only did we sleep together in the same bed but he literally held me ALL night. Every time I would turn (I'm a light sleeper) he would turn with me and put his arm right back around me. The next morning, after leaving, I cried the whole way home. I knew this was gonna happen but I was trying so hard to not let it....
So anyway, he has now backed off almost completely. Doesn't text me anymore but will always text me back if I text him (which hasn't been frequent as I am trying to get over him and realize that we are and will only be just friends.....but I will admit I have texted him a couple times). He is now just very "short" with his responses... Doesn't seem to have any interest in talking or getting together anymore. I'm thinking that he's trying to cut contact between us again, which is probably a good idea....he probably suspects that my feelings are back. But to be honest part of me can't help but wonder if there's more to this story....
If anybody has any advice to share I'd greatly appreciate it!. Thanks in advance for your help.
