    So this doesn’t sound like a hopeless case to you? I mean, he HAS to be interested in me to some extent, otherwise why would he continue to refer to me by the cutesy nicknames he made up for me, and call me before he goes to bed, right? Even if his ultimate goal was to have me as “just a friend”, I don’t think he’d act in such a way…

    So when he comes over I should just be my same, goofy, loving, warm self, is that right? And I won’t show him ANY pressure… no asking when we can get back together or constantly telling him that I want him to be my boyfriend. (Sorry for all the reiteration – I just want to make absolutely sure I don’t say or do the wrong things.)

    I know this next question is stupid, and there’s no real way you can truly answer it, but do you have any inkling as to how long he might keep this up? He broke up with me on January 3rd, so it’s already been 2 and a half months… but as I said in previous posts, progress has been made little by little every day.
    I guess what I’m asking is – based on what I told you about the situation – do you think it sounds feasible that within the next few months he’ll come back to me for good? Or do you think it could take him years? Again, I know this is a ridiculous question, but I’m asking based on your experience.

    Thank you so much for your constant uplifts and suggestions… you’re really helping me make it through my days.

    I feel so horrible for pressuring him… my intention was never to pressure him into anything, and I just wish I could go back and fix that. I really love him with all of my heart.

    What would you suggest I do, or how would you suggest I act for the time being? As I said, he calls me every night before he goes to bed, and he has been coming over at least once or twice every weekend to either spend time with me at the house, or to go grab a bite to eat. When he does come over, he will hold my hand or put his arm around me or cuddle… and I don’t stop him, because for that moment, I feel like everything is back to normal. He even -within the past several weeks – started calling me the little “pet names” he had for me while we were dating. What do you think I should do? Just keep everything up the way things have been going, and hope for the best? Or should I tell him not to do those things, and act all aloof while i’m around him?

    My one wish and goal is to get him back, April. I wish you could see the two of us together…
    My heart really is broken right now. I try to find solace in the fact that so many couples break and up end up getting back together, so it’s definitely a possibility. He could have just cut all ties with me, if he wanted to – but he didn’t.
    I don’t want to say the wrong thing or do the wrong thing because I don’t want to mess up any of the progress that has been made.
    Do you have any suggestions?
