I have mixed feelings about it. On one hand, I love him and want to make it work. On the other, I want to try one last time with my ex. Ex and I never really did much to try to save the marriage, just separated and started seeing other people. Now we both have wondered out loud if we didn't start dating who we are with now for the wrong reasons. Mind you, he started seeing his gf right around the same time I started seeing my bf. He told me one weekend he was going out of town with some friends. I found out a month later that it was really "the weekend" that he and his gf became a couple publicly (her family were family friends of mine so there are a lot of mutual friends). That was about the same time that BF and I had became exclusive.

Anyways.... he will be moving out in a few weeks. Until then, it's strange, uncomfortable, awkward and sad around here. I'm not even sure how I really feel about this. Ex has been a good friend in all this and has his own issues with his gf to deal with. So it's kinda like we're being each other's support in this. I have no idea what to do next.

I recommend purchasing and reading the book, "The One: A Fieldguide to Building Relationships that Last". I found it very helpful.

I looked that up.... strangely it seems like ex and I are doing a better job at rebuilding than we are at maintaining our current relationships.
