text: i'm about to go to school with my ex that i am still in love with. we dated for 2.5 yrs. what should i do? we said we would just be feinds, but i'm not sure that i can, and i will be around him alot, because it is a small college, and we are in the same activities. all i want is to be with him, but i don't know if i will be able to see him with other girls, and it will be wierd every time i am interested in a guy as well. i still wish i had an answer as to why he broke up with me, but he just called after he moved to tell me it was over. we haven't talked much, because i don't want to call him and be desperate, and he has never been good about calling anyone. i love him so much, but i don't want another relationship with him until i can trust him anyways. how do i act around him and deal with other people who have heard of me from him. who knows what he has said about me. advice would be appreciated. sweetie, i feel for you.  your in a tough situation but if you can get through the first day of being near him then it will get easier each day until you don't even care if he is there.    when a guy breaks up with you without a reason and you have been together for 2.5 years then he is an insensitive jerk.    i know you love him but don't go to school thinking this is our second chance.  he knows where you have been if he want a second chance.  see if there other activities you may be interested in that he won't be there.    act like you could care less about him when you are around him.  be civil but thats it.  when around people you think they may have been told something about you follow this rule, kill them with kindness.  that way they have no reason to believe anything your ex says.  good luck, make new friends, and have fun in college.  join a sorority.
