    I've had a boyfriend for the past 5 months (he was my first "boy" friend), we broke up a couple of weeks ago and now he swings from 2am calls to say that he loves me to let me see him getting into another man's car (on a date). He does that which hurt a lot and when I finally decide it's time to let go he calls me and tells me that we should be friends and his friends miss me so we should take a walk on the beach later on, I had returned all of his junk, deleted his numbers blocked him on Im,etc and yet Im like sure why not? I was yesterday he had a date with someone else and I came home feeling as great as a gum stuck under a shoe!
    The problem is, I know that I should just not see him but I spend all day anxious and it feels a lil better when he calls... Thats is, until I go see him and he treats me like shit again! YUUUCK im sick of this, feel like moving on already!

    PS. I always sign on here when I'm a bit nervous and end up not making much sense!

    Sounds like you may in fact be being played. Why? Because you allow him to play you. :slight_smile: My advice? Straight up, tell him "I do like you, and I like hanging out with you, but it still hurts to see you go out with other guys. So I probably should take some time away to get my head back in the right place." Then, do it.
