Confusing ex

So like i’ve talk about this before on here. I had explained that i (21F) got broken up with in February by my ex (21M) due to just so much happening. We’ve had month where we went no contact and every time we do, he always reaches out to me. He tried to beg for me back in March and then the same week that he did he ended up meeting a girl and they started talking and I genuinely went into a state of psychosis so I blocked him on everything and then after some time I unblocked him because I felt he wasn’t gonna reach out. Well, I was wrong because then towards the end of June he texted me and then we blocked each other again and then he did it again towards the end of August and we have not been in no contact since then. We’ve had days where we didn’t talk for like a week and then he would text me again and he told me he just needed clarity but he hasn’t really stopped texting me since then and we’ve met up a total of four times already since August and he keeps telling me that he loves and misses me and that he wants everything to be a dream and to wake up with each other again and that he wishes we never broke up so on so forth, but then when I try to have a conversation with him about everything and I tell him that I wanna try to make it work he becomes avoidant and it looks like I’m the one chasing him. And it’s frustrating because it’s almost like he’s love bombing me and breadcrumbing me and I genuinely don’t know why because I wanna move on from everything that happened and I wanna be happy like I genuinely think it could work again but like I don’t know like I said, he just keeps being really avoidant and it’s really hard. The message is just kind of what our conversations look like. I know that probably looks bad on my end but like every time I tell him I wanna stop talking or try to block him. He tells me no and that he doesn’t want me to, but then won’t even put the effort to have an adult conversation with me. Like I just genuinely don’t know what to think anymore and what to do. I miss him a ton and I want things to work out. It also sucks because with the girl he met in March, he lied to me about her time and time again and now he’s got a new job and there’s this girl that he said to me last night that “she’s mad at me” and I said why and he told me it was because she thinks that he doesn’t like her and then I said why would she be mad about that if she has a boyfriend? Most guys wouldn’t even let their girlfriends have male friends like that so it’s a little suspicious to me. I think he is considering her as a romantic partner, but I can’t tell whether or not he’s lying because he’s lied about stuff like this before. I just want answers. I just want to know if he’s telling the truth like I just I need answers. I told him that if he’s considering her as a romantic partner then I’ll step back and I’ll be fine with it, but I’m not doing the whole thing he didn’t march again. And he told me “ she has a boyfriend” and I said that it’s a little suspicious to be acting like that with a male friend when you have a whole boyfriend like why is she worried and blowing up your phone because she thinks you don’t like her? Like she called him three times I’m pretty sure when we hung out the other night like why is she blowing up your phone? You know it’s a little suspicious to me? Sorry I’m ranting now lol! But I just I need perspective😭

I need advice.

Hey guys. I’m kinda in a crisis. I (21F) had a nasty breakup with my ex (21M) earlier this year in February. So it’s been almost 8 months since then. He’s not the first boyfriend I’ve had but he was genuinely my very first love. The one i saw a life with. Well the break wasn’t good and i haven’t been the same since. I’m still in love with him. Well, we went no contact for some time and i thought things were getting better. Especially for my mental health. At some point in June, i started to feel really isolated and thought I had healed enough to try a relationship again. I met another guy (20M) and him and i began to talk and after a month and a half we started dating. That sounds bad I KNOW!! He was everything i thought i wanted too. He communicates, he reassures me, he always makes sure im okay etc etc. After some time though, i began to kinda feel less attached to him. Like bored or tired in a sense. I mean he never wants to do anything, he can be overly clingy, i feel i have to walk on eggshells or he will cry if im too blunt, he’s been getting mad at me recently too. The last day of August kinda drew it for me too when he got mad because i had a photoshoot and he sat outside in the car, instead of coming in, for 8 hours. He was threatening to leave me there too. So after like a week i broke up with him and told him i needed space and time. He made a big deal about it so i broke up with him. Where my ex ties into this, he started texting me the first week of September and i started to realize more and more that i wasn’t ready to commit myself fully to the already standing relationship i was trying to build with someone else. I mean between the stress of having to worry about my ex and the guy im dealing with, it’s just too much. Like i said i broke up with him and said i didnt feel we got to know each other too well so i would like to go back to a talking phase (dumb, right). So now im in the talking stage and i feel like hes trying to force us to go back to how it was. Mind you we only dated for like a month and a half. I just feel like im being pressured and cant breathe. I mean Hes constantly calling me argumentative for expressing certain things that do upset me, he makes me feel bad if i dont wanna kiss or cuddle when we hang out and go on dates, he makes me feel bad for still being upset about my relationship earlier this year despite me telling him i dont want him to feel like a rebound or to feel like im using him which is why i stepped back and wanted to go back to that talking stage. I just feel really bad because im getting to a point where i dont think i truly wanna be with him and I dont know how to tell him without being a horrible person. I already feel bad for all of this because i truly did believe i was ready. He called me avoidant today too which kinda struck me by surprise. I just wish there was an easier way. What do you guys think i should do or say?

Breakup advice

How do you guys cope with getting over a person you truly saw you’re self being with for the rest of your life? I feel like it’s all my fault. I just wish i could be with them again.
