  • Okay that was weird i phoned him to ask for my stuff back cos he had my dads memory card and i didn't realise but he's really nice to me and talking how we were before the fight. He says he misses me and that he wants to change and be better he said he wants me in his arms again. he wants to be friends and wants to take me to the cinema.

    I know hes trying to change but everyone says I shouldn't do it and that i should ignore him. my mums understandably is on bad terms with him but In time I do want to be with him. I'm so confused

    Charleybear, perhaps he's realised he's given up something good. Let him prove he has changed (rather than he's going to change) before you allow yourself to let him in again. If you wish to see him, meet him within a group of friends.

    The cynic in me asks whether he had someone lined up to "replace" you who has now rejected his advances or everyone else is telling him he should've stayed with you and it's forced a change of heart. This old bird's talking from experience, make sure you put yourself first xxxx
  • Im okay things are good we're just being friends nothing more.
    Im going to have more time for myself and do more things

    To be honest Charleybear i would be cautious. if you want to be with him again then i would suggest you do a few things:

    1. talk to him about the way he spoke to you, find out why and make it very very clear that it is not acceptable behaviour.
    2. take some time to figure out what it is you really want - tell him you are not sure about being with someone who could treat you this way if you need time to think about it all.
    3. be prepared to walk away
    4. keep up with your own development and ideas regardless of what happens with him

    Good Luck with everything, and hey we have all been there and understand. xxx

  • Me and him have the understanding that we're just friends.
    He's playing with my emotions again and I don't want that.
    He wants to meet someone new and I just want to meet the world I never knew about.

    I have another busy day today so may not be doing much.
    Shower - Done
    Getting ready for work - doing
    Go to work

    Back again. I can't believe how easily life keeps getting in the way. It's not very easy to get online in my room at the moment which makes it more difficult too.
    I have a 101 in 1001 days list though I have to admit I've not done much on it lately. I've been doing it a couple of months but have only crossed off a couple of things - some do take time I don't currently have though!
    Today's jobs:
    -wash up done
    -help OH pick out a nice lamp and some shelves done
    -clean bunny cage and put it in the garage :-( done it's a bit quiet without him
    -help OH to organise kitchen cupboards done
    -read chapter of book
    -spend half hour on jigsaw
    -Christmas present list
    -finish watching Sabrina started. More it watch than I remembered
    -3 assessments
    -Clear desk done
    -update diary

    Happy Saturday everyone xx
