Confusion with my ex

Ok I dated a guy for a year and a half. He broke up with me about a week ago, and I can understand why. We fought too much. But, we've both made changes in ourselves to try and work things out. We've been doing really good. We still hang out as friends...

for right now, but we still act like we're together. We still call each other baby tell each other we love each other blah blah blah...but he tells me that all he can offer me right now is a friendship b/c we both need to get our sh*t together, but he loves me and maybe we could get back together in the future.

HELP!

Well maybe you should let it work it self out if your really confused

Dear msm18,
If you were both always fighting then there are major problems. A week does not give anyone time to make changes in themselves. Treating each other as if you are still a couple and yet you are not is just wrong. This is a terrible thing to do to each other. We love many people in a life time that doesn't mean we are able to be with these people as a couple. That is why we date so we know if this person is right for us. It is obvious that you are not meant to be a couple. So stop pretending and move on with your life. He isn't for you.
Sue...good luck
