My ex and I were together for 3 years. We broke up 7 months ago. We are young and still trying to figure things out, plus he isn’t the best communicator, so all of that incorporated into the break up. Other than that, we were so close. We have a strong connection, and he was my best friend and my right hand man. When we broke up he told me he didn’t want it to be over forever.. He still had the intentions of having me in his future. He was dead set on being friends (not to cushion the blow for me because he knew I didn’t want that). He ended up gettig involved with alcohol and then wrong crowd and many other women, and I suffered from a deep depression.

We woud see each other once in a while. But then on February, things got very bad. We got into this huge fight. I stopped talking to him and he freaked out over that. After many desperate attempts of trying to contact me, he got ahold of my mother. Since then things have been moving forward, but at the same time they’re not. I’ve cut contact with him a couple more times because this really is hurting me. He freaked out every time. We say I love you. We hug. We kiss. We are kntamite. But I’m not a priority. Its not a commitment.

I have already come to the realization and acceptance that I have to let go. Neither one of us ever really let go and moved on. He tells me he wants me to go out and experience things with other guys like he got to with other girls. But then he wants me in his future because he can’t find another girl like me? He is very confused, and I understand that 100%. We were each others first loves and we have a connection like no other. But right now, things just aren’t working.

I just need some support.. Letting him go is so hard, but at this point I don’t have a choice. I know that that is what I must do. But I’m terrified that he will never love me again. I have to do what is best for me. From the little info I have given, do you think he will ever regret it?

We shared amazing memories. Close connection with not only each other but our families as well. Each others first loves. High school sweethearts. If you ask anyone, people will say that I was the best thing that has ever happened to him. He even said it all the time! He is a very troubled person and I stuck by his side through it all..

I guess I just need some comfort and reassurance.
