pls help scorpio males..

hello,

i'm a virgo female who'd been with a scorpio male for about 3 years and separated in oct 2009 after living together for a year ( he moved to where i moved from our hometown then we ended up moving back not too long before we split up)
ok.. to make a longg story short.. we met when we were both 21 and together on and off for 3 years.. a lot of drama, tears, but we both admit that we love each other very much and can be ourselves without having to worry about anything else.. we had our ups and downs and decided that we should be friends. we both went through a lot and put up with a lot of stuff for each other.. he had his license suspended, almost went to jail, had to run from the police on his motorcycle, crashed it a couple times, a lot of tickets, u know just somethin i wouldn't want when what i wanted was something stable.. after our move he sold his car, one of his motorcycles to support us cuz he didn't want to work (loL) but i worked full time and we went to school together.. things didn't work out up there so we moved back down and decided we would be better off alone.. anyway, we've both been happy since our break up and kept in touch.. he got a new girlfriend and tells me that he talks about me all the time which he never used to do with me (talkin about his ex) and it was odd but it really was his relationship, none of my business. he once said she wants to meet me cuz i'm sucha big part of his life but i didn't want any drama and all i wanted was to remain friends with him. i saw him for the first time last week in almost 5 months and unfortunately, we ended up doing "it".. (hope u guys don't judge me! i'm pouring my heart out, lookin for sincere advice) i still love him and he tells me that he wants me in his life and that the girl he's currently with is a rebound and doesn't treat him well(she's 6 yrs younger, tries to get him jealous, etc. i dunno the real story though) i told him i dont want to be a little secret of his, i shouldn't be second to none to someone whether it be a friend, lover, daughter, i don't need to be hidden from others.. then he goes on to say he hasn't, he still talks about me and his parents compare me to the current gf.. he doesn't like me talking about other guys, even friends, and still gets jealous.. ok so my point is.. i truly want to be frineds with him and i will not let such a thing happen btwn us again.. we both know that we can't be together and want to keep our friendship...

ok so.. i honestly don't know what his intentions are. i believe i can see him as a friend, no strings attached. i feel like i'm a back up plan and he wants to have both in his life. on the other hand, i feel like he isn't happy with his gf and misses me. i'm confused.. pls help

i did.. that's why i'm no longer with him and not sad about it at all lol.. thanks for your concern though.. he started working and he's actually the one tryin to get the girl to go to school and stuff.. he's been doing a lot better but i don't want him to want to get back together eventually and make it all awkward.. i want him to be happy with the girl and i just want to be there for him as a friend but since i'm not certain of his intentions, i dunno what to do.. it may sound like a simple and dumb question but it's hard to decide when ur actually in such a situation

i guess nothing positive can come out of this.. i think that'd be the best. thanks
