Hi Sandy,
I may make some typos, please forgive me, I broke two toes, and just got out of ER. But, I will do my best to reflect on your post. You were with this man, for two months, you said he had some contact with his ex. However, even after two months, even if he did “go back to her” I doubt it won’t last. There is a reason, they broke up, and it’s very hard to get the “chemistry” and “spark” back after two months. I have been down this road, has never worked, it’s never the same.
I think right now, her “weeping” caused him a great deal of confusion, kind of like “the damsel in distress”. He probably took pity on her, and thought, “gosh, not sure what to do here, hate to see a woman cry, what the heck, let’s give it another shot” chances are high it won’t work. In two months his feelings might have changed, she might have changed, and what was, can’t be again.
Then what may happen, he will come back to you. But do you really want a man who is in contact with his ex, and so quick to say he wants to take a break from you after only two months? It does not say alot about his character or values, he seems confused as to what he really wants. I think you deserve better, to be in a healthy, loving relationship with a man, where you are not his “2nd” choice or put on the back burner. Keep us posted.
