Dear April, my ex boyfriend and I have been broken up since the beginning of September. (I had just left for college and left him back home as a senior in high school) He ended things with me (I think because he was hurt by my departure) and has changed into a very different person, getting with a LOT of girls and not caring who they are or what their personalities are like. I spent 2 whole months pining over him, doing everything possible to get him back and to change back into who he was before I left for college. He kept me strung along, having physical relations when I was home but then going back to the same ass hole guy as soon as I left for school again. Then one day I snapped, I texted him saying I was done with the games and told him to never text me or try to contact me again. He never responded to the message and it’s been almost a month since we’ve exchanged texts or any communication. With the exception of a week and a half ago I texted him to apologize for how rude I was and I wished him all the luck in everything he does and I was sorry we couldn’t be friends in the end. He never responded to that either. Since the explosion I’ve begun dating someone new (we’re not official because of distance but we’re very happy). There’s something I’m afraid of though. What if right when I’m finally back on track my ex tries to contact me and screws everything up again? I did delete him as a friend on facebook so he doesn’t see my business and I don’t see his. But I just don’t know what to do. A part of me wants him to text me so I can have the security of knowing that he knows that he messed up. I can’t date this person again and I’m very excited with my new relationship, but what I want to know is… after all of this stuff that has gone by do you think he will ever try to contact me again? at least to apologize? Because I feel like that’s what I need most for closure. Any advice is appreciated!! Thanks so much 🙂

You can’t always get what you want — especially when it comes to closure. Your ex-boyfriend isn’t who you want in a boyfriend, and you recognized that and broke up with him. Now you need to move on — in all ways. It’s GREAT that you found someone new — now stay busy because you’re spending too much time wondering about your ex. He won’t screw things up if he ever does reach out — only you can do that!

Keep your eye on the horizon — not on what’s behind you.

I hope that helps. Check me out @AskAprilcom on Twitter, and on Facebook, too: [url][/url].
