I recently ran into an ex-boyfriend of mine a couple of weeks ago at a local bar in my home town......I was extremely surprised because I'm hardly in town due to business trips and the same goes for him. One of my girlfriends' that accompanied me that evening said she witnessed a truly magical phenomenon when him and I embraced......she said we were just glowing with happiness. In my heart I know that he's my true soul mate and I am in love with him, eventhough I am currently in a relationship with someone else, who I've been with for 2 years now. Just so you know, last year, my ex tried to get me to break up with my current beau because he wanted to rekindle, I almost did, but I decided not to......... only because I wanted to give my current beau a chance, but now I regret it, which I will get to in a moment. Back to the evening my ex and I saw each other at a bar -- I was a little tipsy and next thing you know he had me sitting on his lap while whispering wonderful things into my ear, such as, "You know I've always been in love with you". My mouth literally dropped to the floor......I couldn't believe what I was hearing he never said that to me before. I told him that I didn't have a clue about how deep his feelings were for me. I was eladed! Long story short, afterwords, we ended up at his place......and then in his bed........I thought to myself this must be fate, we are meant to be together and now that I know he is in love with me I will break it off with my current boyfriend so that I can be with him, right?......... wrong! The next morning I kissed him goodbye and left early -- only to realize once I got home that I had left my cell phone at his place. So I called him and he picked up and we started to talk, when all of a sudden he said, " I have something I need to tell you........I'm engaged". I was in a complete shock..... I didn't even know what to say......I couldn't react the way I really wanted to, which was to SCREAM! Instead, I remained calm and said, "You've got to be kidding, you are not getting married". His reply was "I'm supposed to". What does "I am supposed to" mean? Sounds so obligatory and uncertain to me. And to top it all off he's only known her for 8 months and they've set a wedding date already for September 1st. I am just baffled......he barely even knows her and vice versa. I don't belive that he's in love with her, 'cause if he were he wouldn't have been with me........That was quite a risk to take, considering the circumstances and the fact that we didn't use any protection. How about if I were to become pregnant, then what?
What I need to know is if whether I should stop him from getting married to this person and see if he wants to work things out with us or should I just let it be. Please help, quick.
