Kamakshi have u ever thought that the reason you still linger onto your old boyfriend is because you are stuck in the thought of "what if...". Well everything happens for a reason, and if you get stuck on your past, and thoughts of what could have happened then u'll never move on and be able to cherish what you have in front of you. We all get stuck in the past, and yes everyone is entitled to mistakes, but if you don't move on, then you will be cheating everyone including yourself. So before you even decide anything, first move on and out of past thoughts that could ruin your decision. It takes 5 minutes to write an email, or make a phone call no matter how busy. I don't mean to b entirely judgemental on this guy, but you asked for advice, and my advice is no one should have to wait 1.5 years for a reply. Cherish what you have, you may not love this person you are with yet, but surely you will learn to, what is that they say...oh yes..."always marry someone who loves you more than you do them." cheers, sage btw i m no Dr phil, i do like beer, blondes, monday night football, and scratching areas on my body.
