WHEN he misses you, or feels lonely, or just feels like having sex, you’re comfortable and willing territory to go to. You’re like a comfort blanket.

I honestly don’t think he’s thinking any more than that. He left you and has made it perfectly clear he doesn’t want to move back in or get back together.

But this is clearly affecting you and he should know better than to mess with your emotions like this.

You’re thinking, “Does he want to get back together? Does he still love me?” But he’s not thinking anything and is just having his cake and eating it. So you need to stop sleeping with him.

Promise yourself that you’re not going to be there every time he wants a shoulder to cry on or somebody to sleep with. That’s just not fair on you and you deserve much better.

Politely stop answering his calls, stop him from coming round and try to move on with your life.

He won’t like it – but, remember, he was the one who left you.

“This study adds to a growing body of research showing how our social relationships can have immediate and lasting consequences for our health,” says Dr Matthew Dupre, from the Duke Clinical Research Institute in North Carolina, US, who led the study.
