KillinSpoon - don't let your ex be the one in control. If she truly regrets what she's done and wants to get back together with you, consider that. If she just wants to be friends, don't, and get on with your life without her. Because if you keep letting her get what she wants then it makes you the one without power in the relationship, which will just continue while she keeps stomping on your heart.

People keep saying "there's plenty more fish in the sea", and you need to appreciate what that means. When you go fishing, you don't try to catch a specific fish, you just stick your line in the sea and try to catch one. If you focus on and obsess about a specific fish (as nice guys do) you'll just end up mad like Captain Ahab.

(Yes, I know a whale is not a fish.)
