it sounds like you are doing really well.you say he is asking you for sex and you have been turning him down.that's good.altho you want him,giving him sex whilst he is wish someone else is going to make you feel crap about yourself and make him think really badly of you.stay strong.he is just trying to see how far you will go to get him back.
how old are your children? can you try and distance yourself from him? not get into discussion with him other than about the children? even if you can't go out at night, do you meet people in the day - do you work?

thats the whole point of it.listen i went through a similar situation as you a few years back, i did get back together with my dp but the break up wasnt at all as bad.I hated being on my own and going out having to explain to people what happened, but you have to deal with it, its seriously a big part in your healing process.you will be fine......trust me

is he giving you any encouragment? i mean,other than asking you for sex, is he saying he wants to get back together? what does he say about the woman he lives with?

suezee · 08/07/2007 15:54

i honestly dont know???????.It really seems to me that hes enjoying keeping you dangling by the thread. do as he says and stop ringing.the best thing for you to do at this moment in time is to sit down with him and just say that you should just be contacting each other in concern with the children NOTHING ELSE.....if its too painful for you to see him then y dont you just ask him to pick the kids up at ur mums for the time being, just to give yourself time to heal.I really belive that once you get the ball back in your side of the court things will turn out better.

If he's trying to get you to have sex with him, his relationship to her cannot be ideal, can it?

However he is not giving you signals you could reasonably interpret as wanting to get back together, ie saying he doesn't care, and telling you not to call him. Write down those kind of comments of his down and place them under/next to your phone so you don't call him again when you're low. Come on here instead

I don't know that getting back together is the best thing for you. However if that is the clear aim, strategically speaking you are not going about it the right way. I'm not great at these games but I'd imagine you have to give the impression you are strong and happy and enjoying life and getting on just fine without him. He would also probably be more likely to want to live with you if he thought it was going to be pleasant, therefore the arguments are not helpful.

Maybe though when the grieving phase you are currently in is past - and it generally does pass, you may not want to be with him.

Good luck.
