    2 weeks ago, my boyfriend broke up with me, by text. We had been going out for about 5 months.We've broken up and gotten back together so many times before, I lost count. This time it was literally over nothing and out of nowhere.
    Should I try to win him back or forget him?
    I love him but i don't want to love him.

    I think you're better off without him. As you say, you broken up a number of times and the last time was over nothing. It just sounds like you're not compatable. If you did go back to him, can you really see anything coming of it? Or is it more likely to end in another break up?

    As I said, I think you're better off without him. You'll feel bad for a while, then meet someone new and you'll forget all about it.

    I think you should just forget about it. Doesnt really sound like a relationship worth having if your always fighting anway especially only 5 months into the relationship. You probably spend more time being upset with him than mad about him.

    Your already kinda half way there anyway by saying you dont want to love him cos then you must realise that theres no point loving him anyway as your obviously no good for each other.

    Just move on, dont text him or call him, just accept his decision and walk away with your head held high, you obviously tried to make the relationship work by getting back together so many times, now you can just focus on starting again, keep yourself busy and your mind off it and you'll be alright.

    He broke up with you by text. He didn't even have the decency to talk to you in person. I think you can do better and find someone who respects you, don't you ?

    You're only together 5 months and have broken up so many times you cant remember? doesnt sound like a relationship worth being in

    Horses for courses. In an on and off 5 month relationship I'd much rather be dumped by text than have a face to face break up scene replay over and over in my head.

    Anyway on topic. Just move on. If its been this patchy in the first 5 months I'd imagine this guy wanted to finish with you long ago but found it difficult to break up with you before.

    Move on and find someone who deserves you!
    My ex dumped me by letter! And we were living together at the time as well!
    Men like that aren't worth being upset over! Trust me, when you least expect it you're going to meet a man who adores you and will never make you cry (unless its from laughter ;) )
    Trust me... I've been there!

    my ex broke up with me 8 times in 3 years - each time i went back. Yeah he loved me but he just didnt know what he wanted. Forget about him. I thought id never get over my ex but i did :) And believe me i was a total mess - lost weight and all! He still loved me and wanted to get back together again but I KNEW 100% he'd get cold feet again and dump me. So i pushed him away. Do yourself a favour and look after you for a while - forget guys for a while. xx

    I've been there-dumped by text after what I thought was a great relationship which was going somewhere. My advice? Delete his number and move on. Right now. If he wants to get in touch he will. Do not drunkenly text or call him. Do not mull over what went wrong for hours or bitch about him non stop with your friends. You have to cut him out, he is not the person for you right now (not to say he won't be in the future, but your immediate feelings are what are important here).
    And trust me, there is someone better out there. I know, I met him not long after loser dumped me by text. You will meet someone better, but you need to get over this idiot pronto or you will think he is the only person who will ever make you happy, which is not true!
    Best of luck!
