I feel like he crosses my mind way too much for our circumstances. With that being said, we are extremely dysfunctional but mostly on his behalf. Out of the year that I've know him we only were consistently together for a few months until we broke up and started being on and off. He is the one that calls it off and I'm usually the one to initiate contact afterwards. This past time I had to ask a legit question and he brings up our relationship and how he misses it. It's how I get sucked back into being irrational. I get charmed and we try again despite knowing what the outcome is going to be. He tells me every time he doesn't know if he misses me and what me had or he hates being alone. His excuse for running away the last time was because he was starting to feel "hurt." I told him I've been doing adventurous things since then and he asked why we couldn't be like that together. He wants to see me but I never know his intentions.

I don't know if he pretends to have feelings because he's heartless or if he really does and he gets overwhelmed. My friends say he just seems lonely and I'm available to him. If I'm direct and ask his intentions then I think I look way too invested in it. Should I go with the flow again or just try really hard to avoid the temptation??

You should ask yourself why do you keep going back to someone who treats you poorly like that. Even now you're questioning if you should go back for more heartbreak...

You should love yourself more. He dumps you and you're the on who chases after him... Doesn't that hurt your pride? Maybe you believe you deserve to be treated this way.



A lot of it's because I betrayed him and was the reason why we broke up the first time. I guess the guilt and the need for redemption is why I go back.

I used to be in a relationship like that. I was just like him.

She kept coming back and we got along as friends so we just kept trying to make it work, but the whole time I knew she had that guilt so I had the upper hand.

After that I vowed to never take advantage like that cause it just drains both people (even if he doesent see it that way)
He definetely knows he has the upper hand. I'm just bait and I'm so damn bad at letting people go so its even worse >.

She can't. Libras are notorious for sticking around in shitty situations. They seem to practically get off on this shit, which is sad. :/

Don't start that lying on the Cancer board now.

Libras are good at playing victim.

That is all.

You can fall for it on the Aqua board and feed her ego there but don't spread that mess this way.

That's why there's everything but Cancers replying to her. That's like Scorpios come here saying their Cancer left them and they didn't do anything - I'm suuure. &I'm pretty sure she doesn't care for us Cancers either, she's just coming around here because she wants something - validation saying he's the bad guy.

.

You can work out feelings of redemption and guilt in a therapist office where the feelings can be resolved not acted out. It is apparent that your relationships issues require the assistance of a professional. Regardless of your reasons for returning, or his dysfunction, you are just as sick as he is for participating in this situation.

I betrayed my Aquarius in the beginning and he still pursues me. Your guy doesn't want you, and you are having a hard time accepting his rejection or ambivalence. It sound like you are acting out some childhood issue. It sounds to me like you are in the throes of love addiction and you two are going around and around in the love addiction cycle.

Completely agree but this shit won't even stick in the Aqua board. We see through them as well.

What I wanna know from the OP is, is this the same cancer guy she was dating just recently who was a total homebody and didn't go out much? Or is this an ex from the past who also happens to be cancer?

Only advice that never fails-dont listen to what he says, this is how women get sucked back in. Judge him by his actions. Think out of the situation-your daughter/friend/sister going through it. Do you see this guy as being good for her? Her wellbeing? Is she happy?

Trust yourself. You know what you deserve. Maybe its not what you need/ready for right now and subconsciously it "suits" you to be in an on/off type of thing?
