My ex boyfriend told me he has feelings for another girl but still wants to be with me. He still loves me but now cant control how he feels about her. Should I wait around for things to get better or should I pack up and move on?

I suggest that you dump your ex-bf completely if that's the case. Tell him to come back to you if he is already sure of his feelings, whether it's still you or the new girl. But good luck to him if you are still free by that time. Move on. . .have a nice day!

Yea, we invested 5 years (wouldve been 5 years on this Valentines Day) in each other. He thinks Ill still be sitting around waiting once he makes up his mind. As much as I love him, Im not going to continue to subject myself to his foolishness

mbraceluv welcome to myLot. If I was you and my ex said that to me I personally would not sit around waiting for him to make me his number one again. I would want to be number one always. Although it will not be easy I would suggest you find love and or keep away. I would not allow a man make me secondary to see if the other relationship will work out or not. Love is not a choice it is a feeling of being loved and respected. Good luck to you and may I suggest you keep yourself busy so that you are not prompted into what if and what is he doing. I wish you well.

Kick him to the curb. Sounds like he wants his cake and eat it too.

First of all welcome to Mylot! Seems things are somewhat or more complicated for you over there. It's kinda hard for anyone to love and have 2 girlfriends at a time. I suggest that you leave him because it would be like taking a risk here. The moment your boyfriend fell for another girl means that he is no longer interested in you. Trust me the longer you hold on to this the longer he can manipulate you! I am telling this because my girlfriend also had done the same thing to me! Cheers!

Better talk to him, and make him decide who's he's keeping or giving up. If can't decide,then do that by giving him ultimatum. If still he can't decide, then pack up, he's not worth waiting for, a man who can't give up a girl while still sticking it out you is not worth of your patience and love!
