Milly asks :
Hi Lucy,
All my friends say my ex-boyfriend is still into me but I don't know: He sometimes glances at me and tells everyone to f*** off when they ask about me. All my friends say I should ask him out again. I don't know if this is right.
Hi Milly,
Agony Aunts on Female First
The first question I would ask is why you broke up in the first place? He may still find you attractive and miss you, but if you were not a good couple when you were together, then it might be worth ignoring what your friends are telling you. Whatever the reason you went your separate ways may still be there.
It is always flatting to think that your ex is pining over you, however if you don't want to go back to a bad relationship- then you don't have to simply because you friends tell you he is still interested.
If you have any doubt then that could be your gut telling you that you don't want to go back- that you want to move forward.
If you feel that you have both changed and could give things another go, then it might be worth exploring but be true to yourself and your instincts and try not to give into pressure from your friends. They are not the ones who will have to be in the relationship- you are- so stay true to what you really want.
