Choose your new guy because your ex-boyfriend isn’t Mr. Right. You gave it a shot with the ex — in fact you gave it six years! 😯 — which is way more than a shot, and it didn’t work out. When you got back together with him, you had more of a friendship than a romance, and the reason is that you were lonely and wanted his company more than his genuine partnership. Being single after having been in a relationship for a long time like you had, can be difficult, and you weren’t quite ready for that, so you got back together with your ex because it seemed at the time to be easier than being on your own. Well, when that didn’t work out, now you’ve only been broken up for a month, you’re missing him, and that’s normal — but it doesn’t mean you should go back to him or that he’s right for you. You shouldn’t and he’s not.
Break ups are supposed to hurt and they naturally invoke thought and reminiscence about the good times as well as the bad. But don’t mistake that for a reason to get back together.
It’s clearly time for you to move on in your life and find someone compatible with you — this new guy just may be the one. Give him a shot, and better yet, give yourself a shot at life without your ex. You deserve more than you had, so go for it! 😀
