Trying to fix it with my ex

To me, there are obviously some issues that bother the ex that are enough for her to want to leave the relationship. I think step number one is to have clarity on exactly what the issues are and to really make her feel heard. It might not be about you seeing someone else at all.

If she voices concerns, and you say, "that doesn't make sense," that is a dismissive response. Nobody will want to give you any second chances if that's your attitude. But if you say, "hey, I care about you so much, I know something bothers you. Can you please help me understand what exactly bothers you that made you want to leave the relationship?" Then maybe the other person will be open to share.

You do have to be ready for them to respond that they don't want to share. You cannot be selfish and only think, I want this relationship back, I want this relationship back. Then you're coming from a place of need, you're coming from a place of a lack. Relationships are doomed when one person starts from a place of lack.

So it's important to respect the other person, understand the other person, and to see if this is even a good idea for both of you. If it's just for you and she doesn't benefit, it's not the right fit.

How do I find excuses to talk to a girl I know on the phone more?

I'd say don't be afraid to call. If they don't want to answer, they won't. Of course, don't call every day, but every few days is totally fine. But I'd recommend calling to invite her to hang out. You have to spend time with her in person to really get to know her.

How to talk to a guy you REALLY like

Be yourself. If you are nervous, it's a sign that you have too high of expectations for how you want the other person to respond to you, which makes you start acting. You want to live up to the other person's expectations of you — which you don't even know because you are assuming them — which makes you not yourself. If you're not being yourself, then who is the other person even liking? Be natural, and remember, they don't bite. They should know the real you.

I like a girl but I don't know if she likes me.

There are multiple options depending on how bold you want to be! You can just confess your feelings and say, "I'm really interested in more than friendship. I want you to be my girlfriend." That's an option. If you aren't feeling as bold, try hinting with body language, like gently caressing her hair, or start to show romantic gestures and see how the other person responds. If she just pulls away, then you know that she doesn't like you, but if she accepts it, then you know she likes you.

I need help on what to do about my boyfriend??

Thanks for sharing. The best advice I have is to have an open communication with him and set the expectations. If you are too busy to hang out then it is ok to tell him that but propose an alternative idea, and that way it is not just a rejection but an invitation to find a better time to hang out.

I think if you guys keep the communication open and honest, you will find a time to hang out that work for both of you. It seems that right now without they communication, his needs are not being met nor being communicated.
