Feeling really crap!!

My ex broke up with me a few months ago, and I asked him a few weeks after if he thought we'd ever get back together, and he said yes. Over the past fortnight I have found out that something is going on between him and another girl. Anyway, that kind of helped me move on and i kind of got over it. He arranged to meet this girl again today, and i got a bit jealous i guess. He realised there was something bothering me, and wouldn't let it drop until i told him: so i did - the fact he said we'd get back togther and now he's with someone else. He seemed really peeved with himself, and is now not replying to my texts! What do i do?? I don't want anything to happen between us, but i don't want to loose him as a friend

Firstly, drop him as he's clearly no good to you anymore and I think you'll probably find he's using you.

Secondly, if you want to remain friends with him - get as far away as you possibly can for a few months. Cut off contact. Keeping him around will only make the healing process much harder and it's very rare that someone is emotionally strong enough to deal with conflicting emotions while staying around someone. Get away, heal and then you can be friends.

How would you say he's 'using me'?

Why is he having his cake and eating it? They aren't in a relationship together, he only said a 'Yes' to them maybe getting together again in the future. They aren't actually together and she says she's moved on (she says she doesn't want anything to happen AND that she wants to stay friends with him). So why cut him out of her life?

Part of me kind of wished i hadn't told him, cause then he wouldn't be ignoring me right now!

Nix - I don't think he's annoyed with me at all. He seems more annoyed with himself

When i see my ex tomorrow, I'm not sure what to do - do i ignore him, be all happy and cheery around him?!?

What do you want from him? I can't tell you how to behave, you need to work that our for yourself but if you want to remain friends, then your answer is just act normally.

It's going to be odd no matter how you act due to your history. It might just be best to take it as it comes.

I just wanna be his friend - a friend who he can talk to when he has a problem - like how we always used to be
