I 22F can’t decide between an ex 23M and a new guy 24M

So to sum it up I was dating this guys 23M since 14 years old. During that relationship I was playing his wife at 15 taking care of everything, I found photos of other girls in his phone multiple times and never ever felt appreciated. Long story short we broke up last March and during that time I immediately started talking to 24M, he was the sweetest man to ever exist, however unfortunately I could not get over ex and ended up in a toxic cycle with 24M where he didn’t trust me (rightfully so). During this time original boy has swore up and down he changed and I do see it so much. But part of me just wants 24 year old but I can’t fathom leaving the relationship for good that I spent my entire teenage and what I’ve had of adulthood imagining a future with. I’m scared no matter what I’ll make the wrong decision. How do I figure out what’s best for me and if I truly should give ex another try or say screw it with 24m?

How do you walk away with any shred of dignity

I (F18)met this guy (M19) at work, it was in a truely terrible restaurant. We got along from the minute we met, it was instant. I thought he was hot from the start. He's recently admitted the same. But he's a flirt. With everyone, and over the time we have known eachother he's shown more interest in everyone who isn't me.

I recently stopped working at this restaurant to focus on uni. I was out a few days ago, and got drunk. I ended up messaging him. And admitted all the feelings that hadn't been said. We talked and he claims to feel the same. But isn't acting or saying anything which proves that.

After the past few days I dont think he actually likes me, rather I think he just likes the attention. Whenever we speak, all he wants to hear is about how I like him, then refuses to say anything real back. It's looking one sided as shit but this just isn't what I expected.

I have been so put off by this but how do you go back on yourself after a week like this?

I [F18] needs advice on this guy [M19] and our ‘relationship’

I’ve been talking for this guy for the last few months, like we started getting to know each other during summer and things got serious pretty quickly. We kissed on the like 4th ‘date’ and obviously I liked it.

But as the relationship grows, he has asked me to be his real girlfriend but whenever I ask him if he’s sure he’s ready for that, he’ll always tell me; no, you’re right.

He has micro-cheated on me 3 times so far and each time I tell him I’m getting sick of it. I’m a caring girl and I have never cheated or micro-cheated during our whole talking stage and honestly, it makes me feel stupid and inexperienced (especially since he’s older than me). He has told me multiple times (after I found out he cheated) that I deserved better, that I looked pretty when I cried (because I did when I found out the second time) and that we should stop talking but he doesn’t want to leave me.

And I think the reason for that is because he knows that I’m not looking just for fun and I guess that’s rare for him? Because he’s been in like only real relationship and the rest was just for fun. But I feel like him keeping me as a safe option is very unfair and I feel like I’m stupid and dumb for waiting for him and being loyal. Plus, we mostly hang out at night. Like I sneak out for him and he does as-well but I don’t like that and he never makes the effort to hang out during the day. Though he used to play basketball with my little brother a lot (before he moved a little further away). So I’m just really mixed up

But even if I’m 18, I’m not looking to just have fun and I keep telling him that and each time he tells me; yes, I know don’t worry me too. I’m not here just for that. But most of the time when we see each other we end up doing things even tho sometimes it’s just kissing, he always wants to take it further even though sometimes I clearly set my boundaries and tell him no.

I’m tired of being disrespected but I feel attached to him and honestly, I’m not sure about what to do.

Obviously I know lots of people are going to tell me that I should end things but I don’t know if he’s being genuine about the whole not cheating anymore and becoming a serious thing (him and I) so I think it’s not that easy. Plus, maybe it’s summer and he just wants to have fun? While like keeping me..I don’t know, I feel like I sound dumb writing this text but I need someone to actually wake me up and be honest with me.

I [24f] Need analysis of what went down between me and A[25M]

Backstory:

I [24F] have known him [25M] my whole childhood. We grew apart and recently got in touch about a year ago. I remember seeing his picture on a friend’s post and thinking to myself wow A[25M] got a glow up. And that’s that. Because I was in a relationship too with someone else. Apparent so was A around the same time. Both of our precious relationships didn’t work out.

Trouble stars:

A and I started talking and the first few months were the best. I knew the moment I heard his voice that I was done for. Post a couple of weeks- we start talking more regularly and feelings develop. Me Moreso. I’d been in two relationships before him but this was the first time it felt familiar to love. His name signified the warmth he brought into my life. We were together for about 9 months. We agreed to stay friends with flirting allowed. Sometimes we’d even discuss kid,family,parents,beliefs. We were on similar wavelength on almost everything. My hamartia was impulsiveness gaslighting and his was ego and crudity at times. I took an unmediated drug for the first time which messed my brain.

Can I blame it on the drug or is it my fault completely?

3 mistakes of my life :

I drunk called my 2 exes and he found out(I told him). That was the first significant mistake. After that we were good but a mutual friend of ours came In between and ruined it again. We got over that. Final straw was me roaming out with a guy I met on hinge and lying to my friends that I’m with A (they wouldn’t worry) and to my parents about a camp. None of them bought it. So he was might pissed- reason obvious. And he has warned me of this sort of thing a few days ago. But at that moment i was hurt that he wasn’t listening to my pain(physical as well). I was beat up by parents. So in anger i cut the call. He blocked my number. Wouldn’t reply to any messages. So I thought I’ll go his college wait till he comes out and then sort it all out. That didn’t end well(I got humiliated). I wouldn’t do such a thing he knows. Then he wished me on my birthday. That’s it. After that I wished him on his - in my sweet style. Attached below is rest of the conversation

So is there any hope for reconciliation?
