This message board is so therapeutic for me. Its like a big club of people who don't make you feel bad about still loving your ex and having a hard time getting over him and moving on. Which I think is something that we all need, if only for a little while.
Things with my ex have turned into a dramatic mini-series. Its been 6 months since we broke up and i decided that i was ready to be his friend. so i sent him an email asking if he wanted to meet for lunch or brunch.He replied and made sure to mention that he has a new girlfriend and that he would be making dinner for her the next day. Now that pissed me off because it took a good 6 months for him to even feel comfortable with the title and now he's all, yea i have a girlfriend. So anyway, he told me that he was busy, going out of town and would call me when he got back into town.
So the next day i go to church and who shows up... my ex. and he comes and sits next to me. starts giving me compliments and trying to chat me up. i hadn't seen him in 5 months so it was just... i still don't even know. we ended up going go get something to eat and talking for like an hour. I don't know if anything was resolved. In fact it just felt like this is just the beginning. I plan on treating his current relationship like its the real deal even though it screams 'rebound' to me. and the whole time I'm thinking, if things are so great with your new relationship why did you purposely seek me out to spend time with me, and on your new girlfriend's birthday.
Yes i still love this man and yes I still have hope that we will one day work things out. but him doing stuff like this just reminds me that he still has a lot of growing and maturing to do. AARGH!
Just needed to get that out.

Welcome to the board plzseeme4me,
I like your username, reminds me of the Goo Goo Dolls song - Iris - 'I just want you to know who I am'
Anyway, I'm not sure how to say this delicately.....
This part: "Yes i still love this man and yes I still have hope that we will one day work things out. "
This tells me that you called him way too soon and really aren't ready to be his 'friend' - you haven't healed enough.
