why don't men move on? The last two guys I have fallen for...continue to have this ongoing "thing" with their exes...texting and visiting them. When I'm out of a relationship...I"m out. Why do men feel the need to continue and bring their past into their present? I'm so frustrated because I just broke up with my boyfriend becuase he cannot cut ties with his ex and I really cared about him and that was our only problem. I asked him to cut ties, he said he would, and then I caught him talking to her again. He's trying to get me back and saying that he will cut ties, but I already gave him one chance....how many chances is a girl suppossed to give!?
