A friend said to me that when he sees his ex girlfriend with somebody else, this really hurts him. He said to me that he can no longer stand this plight and i dont know what to tell him so as to console him. He knows that he was at fault when he ditched this girl for another one but now even though that everything is going smoothly with the other girl whom im sure love him very much he wants his ex to come back. I am not being able to make him understand thats not possible now as to me its too late. What will you mylotters say to him?

hmmm, i say concentrate to his present gf, he get karma when he dumped her ex, so maybe next time he should feel true and give importance to that relationship not just to have a gf or bf :( hope this helps..good day :)

It seems like a case of 'the grass is always greener...' If he left his ex for his current girlfriend than obviously he wasn't 100% happy with her at that time... Maybe he realises now that he really does love his ex but sometimes it's just too late. Or maybe it's an ego thing and he hates the fact that she has moved on and isn't pining for him.

It is not right that he is wanting his ex back. Then he should choose her over the other woman. I think you should set him free to be with whoever he wants to be with. That he needs to know that he messed up a good thing and that he is not going to be able to get you back. Tell him to go get lost and never to come back.

If your friend is feeling so strong for his ex-girlfriend, I think he should take a chance to talk to her. What if his ex is not feeling the same way as he is??? I dont think it will hurt to have a friendly talk with her. Tell her how he feels. Otherwise i do not think there is a point of just worrying for nothing. It will make things worse for him too. About his present girlfriend..Well, there is something he should seriously think about before jumping ahead. He should think whether it is worth ditching her for a girl whom he already broke up with ! As a friend, dont just see one side of the issue. He might not listen to the logic if you press upon only the present girlfriend. Hope things will work out...

As many of us here is thinking that he must turn the page now, i'll advice him to forget about his x gf.

he better forget her because his ex girlfriend has already a companionship. he must move on and start a relationship with others because theres nothing he can do to take her back to his arms again. maybe he rather forget his past relationship to his ex girlfriend. he must learn to move on and start a new one...

Once you owned something and you lost it,you'll have the desire to get it backwhen it appear again and especially when it is possessed by some one else. Ex girlfriend is just the same case

I don't know what to say, if he is sorry he doesn't have his grilfriends sitting next to him, he shouldn't been so cruel to her and never dich her. Now he stands up living the consequences. Try buying her some flowers, makeing a song and sing her at the balcony, a love song :).

Well if its genuine love he's feeling for his x-girlfriend I say go for it. It's all up to his ex-girlfriend if she'll still be willing to give your friend another chance. I wouldn't push the issue though. If I'm in his situation and I see that my ex-girlfriend would be much better off and happier with her new borfriend..., I'll be willing to give up my love in exchange for her happiness and peace of mind.

But what will happen to the other girl? Should he just ignore her love? Isnt that selfishness?
