This is my situation:
In the 8th grade I was going out with somebody and we were together for about six months and its your typical puppy love. However, I didn't think he liked me very much since he barely called me. After our six months another guy started to give me the kind of attention I needed. Note that the new guy (Joe) was two years older than "sam" (my ex) and I. Sam and I broke up and I started to date Joe.
Two years after Sam and I broke up I met up with him (sort of by accident, his friends were my friends.. blah, blah blah). For maybe two weeks we'd call each other and have long four hour talks. At one point he and I almost kissed, but we never did. A couple of weeks went by and my cell stopped ringing. We sort of lost contact and somehow I lost his number. Joe and I have been going on and off for about four years now and .. I'm torn between my romantic side and my realistic side. State your opinion and why...

Well I am going to say this as a romantic but as a mother..Enjoy life..meet lots of people..don't have sex..find out about yourself and what makes you happy..look to the future and eventually you will get together with that person who will complement you and have the same goals and interests you have..believe it or not you will change many times in your life and the people you find attractive now will not even get a second look several years later..don't worry about getting involved with someone so serious right now..enjoy your life and your friends..you have the rest of your life.

I'm not sure what opinion your looking for, but I guess I'd have to ask are you in love with Joe? Are you just wondering what might have been with Sam? It sounds to me like Sam may not care so much if he can just stop calling without thought. Try not to think about what might have been. I'm not saying stick with the Joe either though. Some where out there is someone who is going to make you so happy you won't want to think about other people. Don't settle

Ok well you have implied that there is actually no spark with Joe. If this is the case... there never will be, call it quits and salvage a friendship out of it.
Sam on the other hand doesn't sound like he treats you very well... both when you were in a relationship with him and more recently. There's plenty of fish in the sea... maybe go out and find yourself a new man altogether?!

Sam is a fantasy and not day to day real like Joe.
Stick with the person who has been there for you and cares about you.
But it never hurts to have a fantasy- just realize that it is and dont tell your current boyfriend cause it would probably hurt his feeling that you are thinking about someone else.

Well honestly, i dont see anything romantic about someone not calling you out of the blue...secondly...from this it seems that you are still in highschool...if you think things are complicated now...wait until you get to college...I think that you should stick it out with Joe...he seems to be more interested in making things work with you...but above all...follow your heart...deep down inside only you know what it is you want...best of luck sweetie...
