She's in Love with him

[Ketchhim12]

My boy friend and I haven't been together very long, but he says he loves me and wants a long lasting relationship with me. Here's the problem: He and his baby mama are best friends. They have two kids together and although she lives in another state, they talk on the phone or text each other not all day but frequently. He has to travel to her house from time to time to pick up his kids so earlier this week he tells me that she's thinking about moving to his area so the kids can see him more. He doesn't deny that she's still in love with him but he claims the feeling isn't mutual any more. I don't know if I believe him because he always jumps when she calls while I usually get the voice mail and a call back later. I'm so torn right now. Although he claims that he and her haven't slept together in 3 years. I don't know if I can handle this relationship. I guess I should be glad they don't hate each other. What do you think?

Yep it is great that they don't hate each other, BUT on the flip side, I'd be very leary of their relationship, especially if he is admitting she still loves him. Tread carefully.

Its great they get along, I agree, but I also agree that you should take a watch and see approach. Sounds like he knows the BM is still in love with him and is using this to manipulate and play on her emotions. Who knows how far he is willing to go to placate the BM (if you know what I mean)

I agree with the responses, be careful. I was in the same sitiuation, and at the end he was obviously still in love with her because he went back. Not saying our situation is the same just be very cautious. It could be nothing on his end, but she is not to be trusted
