    to go from bedford to oxford takes under an hour, probably 45 mins when the traffics good. but i've known it to take 2 hours on a bad day! hope this helps.
    luv and peace x

    Yea i have once, but it's easier for me 2 get to batch (and i can generally find my way home from there, even when i am paraletic!!-usually!)
    You should come down some time. You been b4? My ex used to be a bouncer there, we can get on the guest list if u wanted to come down.

    as always, my relationships go arseways! this bloke, pete, well, we were gettin on realy well, we spoke everyday, sum times 2x's a day. then on fri he texed me in the mornin as usual being dirty etc, sayin he speak 2 me later, and i havent heard n e thin since, ive texed him & tried ringin but his answerin machine cums on(this is his mob, dont have his house no). i thought, as i still do, that he may just b tryin 2 get rid of me, so i sent him a tex from my mums fone, not sayin it was me etc, and hopin he might reply 2 find out who it was, but he never.
    can u help me guys, wot u recons up?
    if i knew his surname then i could look in the fone book, but he wouldnt give it 2 me cause i was gonna send a foto of his bare butt in 2 'more' mag!
    appreciate the help.
    thanx guys,

    It is possible helly, that he's lost his mobile!!! If this is the case, I hope he has your number written down somewhere else!

    I always try to give people the benefit of the doubt, there could be a multitude of reasons. I hope it's not what your thinking <IMG alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/frown.gif"&gt;

    but my problems have gotten worse! my ex rang me last nite cause he wanted his rings back and he wanted 2 give me my cd's back, so he rang at 8.45 and turned up at 9.30pm, he was dead flirty etc, but i was determined to lead him on(he deserves it) but not actually do ne thin. ne way, we went up 2 my room, and he kept kissin me but i just didnt 'reply', he kept sayin kiss me etc. he was also askin loads a ques bout lads since him & had i had sex since him and all this nonsence, then at 1.30am i gave in and we kissed. he askesd me back, but i said i couldnt. i do still realy like him, but he treated me like shit when we went out, he ses hes changed and he realises he was a bastard 2 me. i did let him get away with murder though, but i treated him like shit last nite & he said that he treated me like he did cause he knew he'd get away with it! i dont know wot 2 do, im torn btween him and my cruise bloke, i know i want cruise but i so badly want my ex, please help.
    told u miracles never happen 4 me! why can life never b simple.

    firstly, what was he doing there 4 hours later if all he wanted was to get some stuff back??

    you have to decide if you can handle him maybe treating you like shit again... he wont have changed that much, a person doesnt just change. i think if you got back with him, it would make him think that he could get away with anythign yet again, coz you went ack to him even after all thats gone on. and it would just be worse, and you would lose the chance with your cruise bloke.

    i think you need to decide if you just want your ex back coz you fancy him and physically find him attractive.. or if yu can actually handle his whole personality. or if you want a new start with the cruise guy. it sounds like you really like him, and maybe you coud do with a new start. you had no feelings of wanting your ex back until he came to see you did you?

    maybe he just thinks its easier, more comfortable, getting back with you than finding someone else. and maybe you think also it would be easier to get back into the same old routine than start again with cruise guy. you need to think about all the bad things about yur relationship, weigh the up against the good things and see if its worth it. i mean, it ended for a reason didnt it? if it was gonna work out you wouldnt have had to break up in the middle...

    If you don't know where you're going, you'll probably end up somewhere else.

    IMHO, if your ex is as serious as he sounds, you could probably get away with putting him on hold until you've given cruise more of a chance. As long as you let him know what the score is.

    Is it ever possible to get over an ex if u really loved em??

    THey always seem to come back and stick there big fat nose into ur life again when ur just over them, and grrr they just bug you, well not all of them.

    I reckon cruise guy sounds better but its up to you in the end, just try not to let urself get hurt again and if u think thats gonna happen with ur ex then just try ur best not to go there. You will just end up kicing urself cos u lost cruise boy.

    thanx guys, i know ur all right. ive never realy gotten over him & we split up 5mts ago.
    he ses he knows hes treated me like shit, but he could just b sayin it i know. he keeps ringin me, & tellin me 2 ring him, but i just normally say no, im doin no more chasing! he ses im playin hard 2 get, which i am. he knows im meetin my cruise fella on sat, and hes askin so many ques bout sex & cruise bloke etc he ses he'll have 2 wait till after then, & i just said yeah! serves him right.
    i want him but i know wot hes capable of, he recons im gonna lead him on then tell him where 2 go, which i was plannin on doin, but he seems 2 b suckin me in. he wanted me 2 go 2 his 2nite but i refused. i dont know, i hope things work out wit cruise fella, but i always seem 2 end up in long distance relationships, wots wrong with me?
    cheers guys, love ya lots helen

    helly, im glad youve decided to not go back with him, i dont know all that youve been through but it sounds as though youve been hurt and going back with old bf would be a mistake. and you never know, it could work out wonderfully well with cruise guy <IMG alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/smile.gif"&gt;

    ive only had one relationship and THAT was long term, but i knew it before it started coz we met off the net and he lived 180 miles away. if i got into a relationship with ANYONE in my town now, it'd end up being a long distance relationship, either if they stayed here next year or went to uni next year. the guy ive been kinda thinking about in the love triangle + 1 = probs thread, hes not going to anywhere naer the same uni as me! well the closest woudl be about 45 mins by train i guess. not sure what'll happen there. so long distance relationships suck dont they, is what im basically trying to say!!

    If you don't know where you're going, you'll probably end up somewhere else.
