Basically me and my friend are "doing things for the plot" and I messaged my ex saying I wanted to get back together and then deleted because I chickened out but he had already seen it so he asked me to bfr (be for real) abt us getting back together cuz he was "considering it tbh" so I asked him the question again and then he goes idk man cuz you have an attitude problem so sometimes ur dry sometimes ur lovey dovey and then I go no need to call me out but yes or no u do know u can say No right and he goes HMMMMMMM THATS A STICKY SITUATION STYLL I ENT SAYING NO THOU but he told my bsf he doesn't like me like that but he won't say no SOOO I'm confused.com rn
I have no idea what this means. Maybe you could write your post more clearly and then I would understand it.

Basically I asked my ex if we could date again and he goes you have an attitude problem but your lovey dovey at times and that he's considering it right and then he's messaging my bsf saying that he doesn't like me like THAT but I told him u can say no because I would much rather have him say no then I'm considering it and he goes I'm not going to say no It's a STICKY SITUATION styll so I'm confused because he's giving mixed signals to me and my Bsf cuz ovi when I'm messaging him she's next to me he's calling me ma'am ( he used to call me that when we was together and ovi I told him not to because I find it weird since we aren't together anymore) but he doesn't like me like that.

Bsf? Ovi? Styll? For the plot? Punctuation?

You're getting the standard answer of he's your ex for a reason, so think why you split up and whether he's changed enough to get back together.
Not really sure what’s sticky about it. He’s your ex and he thinks you’ve got an attitude problem. Mixed signals are generally game playing or immaturity so not really worth your time or energy.

He's wasting your time. That fact it's a sticky one, means he's not sure if he wants to be with you because you might show him attitude again. I'm still confused at the fact that do you actually wanna get back together or not? If your doing it for the "plot" I don't think it's gonna end well for you

he's dating my best friend now

Your “friend”? That person is not your friend! 🤦*♂️
Leave both of them alone, your so called “bsf” and ex, they’ll drain your energy. It’s not worth your mental health, trust me.

She doesn't like him she actually ignores him and if he messages her she calls me and TELLS me what he said and asks how she should message him. And I'm not dropping her for a boy even if he is my ex because at the end of the day she knows what he did and she won't let him forget that at all.
“he's dating my best friend now“, that’s what YOU said. 🤷*♂️
I get that you want to get back at your ex for cheating, but I don’t think involving your best friend in this situation is a good idea. From what you’ve said, it sounds like you’re still young, and decisions like this can sometimes lead to more drama or regret later on. Whether your ex cheated or not, giving him any sort of attention, even indirectly, might not be worth it. It’s usually better to just let go and focus on yourself and the people who truly care about you. Playing games rarely helps in the long run, and you deserve peace of mind. Do what feels right to you, but I’d suggest thinking about what will make you happiest in the long run, not just in the moment.

Also, you didn’t say your bsf is dating him just to get back at him. You made it sound like she betrayed you, that’s why I told you to drop both your bsf and ex.

yeah i understand what you mean and she involved herself tbh when i told her to find out why he cheated on me she went crazy and i said the past is in the past its over we're good now which is true we are on good terms he's my mate and then she called me later in the evening the same day i told her saying he asked me out and i said SAY YES because if he likes her then she should give him a chance to which she asked me if i was sure and i said yes trust me he'll treat you right he treated me right until he cheated and she went are you 100% sure and i went positive and then i messaged him saying U BEST TREAT HER RIGHT NOT LIKE WHAT U DID TO ME CUZ SHE'S BEEN THROUGH ALOT ALREADY and he went i will dw and i said u better and then he asked me why i wasn't mad at him and i went simple cuz i don't have time to be mad at you anymore I've gotta focus on my GCSE'S and he went okay
