My ex boyfriend broke up with me a few years back bc I got clingy with him and he couldn’t take it anymore. We started being "friends with benefits" but I couldn’t take doing that anymore, and then I met another guy. After that, I was out of my ex’s life for 2 years bc I eventually married the new guy. After two and a half years of marriage, I divorced my husband and contacted my ex. We met up again, chatted, became friends, and then ended up having sex, and have been "friends with benefits" for 5 months now.
I’m falling in love with him all over again and so I asked him if he still loved me. He told me that he loves me, cares about me a lot, and doesn’t want me out of his life… but that he is not IN love with me. And he added in that he gets very weak when he’s around me bc he’s very attracted to me, and that out of all the other girls he ever dated, he had the most fun with me, and thinks about all of our good times we had while we were dating. He even told me that he was upset that I moved on with my husband after he broke up with me bc (and I quote) "we would be married right now with two kids if I never left out his life and got married". But how was I supposed to know that he would’ve eventually gotten back together with me???
When I’m with him, I feel like he is IN love with me (and wants to be my boyfriend again) from the way he touches me (very softly and gently), and he lets me spend the night at his place (in the past when we were having casual sex, right after breaking up, he would make me go home after sex). Plus, sometimes, we spend hours on the phone talking and we enjoy each others conversations.
Do you think that later on down the road, through sex alone, that this guy’s mind may change and want to get back together with me? Does he still want me and doesn’t want to let on?
PS. When we were dating, he use to tell me that I was "the one". And he likes the fact that I’ve changed, bc I’m not clingy anymore. I grew up a lot. But he still told me he’s not ready for a relationship right now.
