    My opinion? You need to let this go and focus on your own personal growth.

    If he'd leave his gf for you, he's a douche. Move on.

    Also, you're 22. When you're 30, you'll laugh about him and this post.

    He's a douche for saying he'd leave his girlfriend and not already doing it. He's not being honest to someone about his feelings, one way or the other.

    Not ALL men, but quite a few, are happy to have tag alongs. I have never seen it end well. If he is willing to string you along when he already has a girlfriend, will you ever really trust him not to do the same to you with some other woman in the future?

    You shouldn't have to 'fight' for anyone. When the right one comes along you will know, You will be the world to him, and he to you.

    If he doesn't leave this other girl then he doesn't care for you as much as he says. Don't wait for him. I am sorry for being so blunt but it just isn't worth it.

    If it were me, I would lay down one ground rule. And that would be to not hang out at all unless he ends it with his other girlfriend and wants to truly be with you. It's not good being stuck in the middle getting hurt. Make him make a decision. It doesn't have to be rushed, but he needs to be CLEAR.

    That being said... if it's meant to be, you and he would have already known. I'm not a believer in second chances, unless you're already married. The reason for breaking up the first time is always a good reason. Even if you get together with him again... you know his family doesn't want you around either. It's hard to build a life together when you dislike the other's family.

    I'd go for it. Tell him exactly how you feel. If he says he feels the same way then he will break it off with the other girl.
    If he doesn't immediately break it off with her then you'll have your answer. If he doesn't break up with her then move on and try to forget about him, at least you tried. If he does break up with her then go for it and give it a chance

    This is why I'm glad the internet wasn't a thing when I was a young lass.


    If he liked you, he'd be with you. Or at least be single and willing to put effort in. He doesn't love you -- his wants his cake and eat it too.

    Scrap up all the self respect you can muster, tell him you like him a lot - but he's involved with somebody else and NOT AVAILABLE. Stop seeing and communicating with this man until he is single or you have gotten over your feelings.

    if he has a girlfriend still he is jerking you around; keeping you on deck in case things go sour. It sounds like he wants to know he can have you without actually having to do anything to support the relationship. I would be asking "will he fight for you?" If he isn't even willing to cut this other girl lose then move on. It will be hard, and you may always have a squishy place for him in your heart, but you don't have to have drama to have love and you will find love again.

    Take a year overseas. He's history and let's face it-you weren't good together. Too much fighting and drama.

    Block him from your social media. quit calling him on his birthday and welcome the rest of your life.

    Seriously, think outside the small town you are in. Life if so much bigger then G+J

    Go discover who you actually are outside this dude.

    In the words of Ida Mae from the movie ghost " you in danger girl!" or at least you will be if you fight for this dude. Any man that has respect for his self as well as women, would leave his current situation and take time to heal from it first- before moving on to a new situation. I read this to my Partner btw..... Our Advice- Fall far back and work on your self. if he truly cares about you, He will leave his current relationship and take time and then come find you.
