My ex and I broke up due to a mistake on my part (a lie that got blown out of proportion about an ex of mine) and extreme interferences from mutual friends and people in our lives. Things that were fallacies were told to him about the situation. We did not get back together due to these reasons, which tore me up. This was one year ago, and for the past three months we have been done hating each other, and we have been speaking and seeing each other on occasion. I want him back, but I am afraid he has already moved on, even though, for some reason, 8-10 times when we are together, we end up kissing or cuddling or something. I don't know what to think. Do you? -A Part of Me Is Gone

Dear A Part of Me Is Gone,
The only way to really know his intentions is to just ask him. If you really want a guy back, you can't just fall into him without at least questioning his intentions. You don't need to ask him for a marital commitment, but at least find out if he considers dating a possibility again. If he doesn't, you may not want to get too close to him again. Unless, of course, you enjoy being heart-broken.

The other element you need to consider is trust and understanding. He obviously didn't trust you enough in the past if he believed other people over you. Also, if you did get back together it may be extremely awkward to be around people you know lied about you and quite possibly may do so again.

Honestly, you just need to talk to him about your possible romantic future. From there, I think you can figure out his intentions without any doubts.

With Love,
