I just recently left my boyfriend due to the fact he was doing stuff that I didn't like and his reason was that he still needs time to sort himself out but he asked me to wait until he is ready to be with me. Mind you I went out with this guy a very long time ago about 10 years ago for about 6 months and he broke up with me because the reason was he wasn't ready. Then in Oct 05 we ending up together again until i left him about 2 weeks ago and he used the same reason he needs time to sort himself out. So do you thingk you should wait for your ex partner to get their life together or should you just move on?

for me it depends on how old are you. if you're mature enough to get married so..you should let him go..find another who is faithful to you and who wants to be with you for the rest of your life. but ir you're only 25 and below..you're too young..enjoy life as it is now until you're ready to settle down. so if you're 26 and above then you have to be serious about your life and find a right but not so perfect love of your life. just pray for him and he willl come! good luck! ;)

love - nothing rules love and love rules all things
wow 10 years and he's still not ready? firstly, are you really head over heels with this guy? are you willing to wait? do you think he'll ever be ready? does he love you as much as you love him? if you answered yes, then i guess you might want to wait for him. well..what can u say..it's love, after all..love doesn't need a reason, something it's unexplainable and drives you to do crazy things haha. but if you think that he's not worth it, then just move on..give yourself a chance, give others a chance..who knows, you might find someone much better, who's ready to commit and spend the rest of his life with you^_^ ..good luck and hope everything will work out well!

the answer is yes to all of them, i've loved him since the first time we were together and then when we broke up i still loved him and for me to get over it I had to go overseas for 3 months, then i come back went on a few dates then i ended up engaged for 4 years but i never married the guy as I still loved my first boyfriend. Then to my surprise we ended up together again and i thought that this time it would be for good guess me thinking and feeling that didn't seem to work. I guess i can wait until the day comes when I just can't wait any longer.

Wow girl it sounds like you need to cut this one loose! he may never sort himself out and if you stick around you will never get the love and attention you deserve!
