So i was the one with the boyfriend who "needed time" because he wasn't happy with himself and blah blah blah...and i know there were a lot of you out there who supported me, but there were a lot that were also saying it like it is ...that they thought he was just saying that because he wanted to let me down easy and just wasn't into me.

Well we are back together....he told me he did just need time and we are not all full force but we are back to dating...i told him it's either me or not me at all..and he wants to be with me...so he is taking me out this weekend because he says he has a "few things to make up to me"

so it can happen. hopefully he won't hurt me again.

Good for you! That's great! Hope it works out for you!
How long were you guys broken up? Just curious cause my bf gave me the same reasons 3 weeks ago.

Good For YOU! I hope everything works out! Just remember that there are 2 people in a relationship...it's not a one way street. A few years back my ex and I broke up for almost a year and he too said he needed time to figure things out. I was hurt of course but I gave him the time and he did come back. He told me he loved me, always will, wanted no one else but me and SWORE he would never hurt me like that again. A few weeks after we got back together he proposed....7 months before our wedding he left me AGAIN! DO NOT let him hurt you again. Hurt you once, shame on him..Hurt you twice, shame on you. Take it from me, don't put yourself in that position, it hurts worse the second time around and I feel like the biggest FOOL! Be YOURSELF and GOOD LUCK!
