Are We Meant for Each Other or What?

July 16, 2007

Question

I was with a guy for 1. 5 years. We broke up like 3 months ago because he had another girlfriend. Now he is calling me.

We are friends but it's like I still love him and I think he still cares for me. But if we both feel this way why aren't we back together yet? Could it be that we are hiding our feelings or what? Or we just aren't meant to be together?


Answer

I noticed that you brushed past the point that he broke up with you because he had another girlfriend. I wonder why this piece of information doesn't seem to concern you. Either he had another girlfriend all the while he was seeing you or he started seeing someone else while he was with you. In either case, you've got big problems with this guy.

You need to ask yourself why you would want to return to a man who isn't capable of being faithful to you? Rather than focus on whether the relationship is viable, you would be best served to look at yourself. Clearly you have some unfinished business from your own childhood that leads you to choose a man who can't commit and/or be faithful to you. How does this relate to your own history?

When you were young, who couldn't be counted on? Who violated or mistreated you? When you figure this out, you will understand what early wound you are trying to replay, and hopefully fix, with the help of this man. Unfortunately, you aren't likely to heal your early wound with this guy, because he has issues of his own that prevent him from being trustworthy and capable of loving you the way you should be loved.

If you need help identifying your exact wound, my Personality Profile (included in every Action Plan) will help you do just that. Once the wound is identified, then you will be guided on how to heal it. Healing the wound will free you from this very unhealthy attachment and ready you for a better relationship next time around.
