I feel torn...

Saturday I broke up with my SO. He was cheating on me and I caught him.
Well I met this guy today online who lives in the next town over and we texted most of the day. This guy wants us to go see the new Batman movie when it comes out later this month. He seems really awesome.

Well an hour ago my ex called crying. He said he is so sorry he took me for granted and he didn't realize how much he needed me until I was gone. We talked for a long time and he said he just wants one more chance to make it up to me. He said the pain of me being gone is unbearable and it feels like a part of him died.

I don't like to admit it, but I cried with him. He asked me out on a date, just me and him (that NEVER happened). Said he needs me and will never take me for granted again.

I don't know what to do or how to feel....

I say go out on the date with your ex. Talk about everything, and decide from there. I think this other guy you were talking to should be on the bottom of your priority list.

  I'm so sorry....There's nothing worse than having them cry and feel all bad about it IMO. It's like...WHY can't you be a dick about it so I can hate you properly? =/

I say it depends on how your relationship with your ex was. If everything besides the cheating was fine, then he deserves a second chance to make it up to you.

In my honest opinion he's just sorry he got caught. If you let him back that easy I believe its a gateway for him to do it again. Also I dont think you should be running into another relationship that quickly. But the decsion is up to you in the end. Cheating is something you can forgive but never forget.

This. I say give him a chance but also let him know exactly how you feel. Give him a chance and then if it doesn't work out, you can always give the new guy a chance.

Yeah I told my ex I would go on a date with him.
And the guy I just met seems really nice so I kind of feel bad that I'm still talking to my ex like I am.

I just feel so confused...

I know! I was all confident about my decision until he called.

We got along great except for the cheating.

Well, be friends with the new guy! Don't lead him on, let him know what's going on. That way there's no way that any of it can come back and bite you in the ass, ya know?

Don't make any decision about either one of the guys until you talk to your ex on the date. Make sure to let him know EXACTLY how you're feeling. Don't take him back easily, make sure you know he's being honest. Make him tell you everything.

Quoting Minion:" I know! I was all confident about my decision until he called."

I know the feeling...DH was being served divorce papers...all the way up until our threatened miscarriage at 9 weeks. Honestly...I just wanted to look at him and say "Hey could you please just not give a smurf?!, and for the love of god stop crying I'm trying my damnedest to hate you"

I talked to my ex's sister (and this woman is a goddess when it comes to advice) and she told me that he had been texting her literally all day about me, asking her what he can do to get me back and how he is so stupid for pushing me away. She said he's tore up bad and what he's telling me is only the tip of what's going on with him.
She said she told him what's what and that he needs to straighten up if he wants me back. (She doesn't sugar coat anything)
Since I posted on here he's said that he'll take me to Atlanta and we can do ANYTHING I want. He said he'd send his son to his granpa's for the night one night and we can also have a movie night just me and him.
He seems sincere...

That seems really sweet! Just make sure you are very firm with it, I let brian get away with it a few times third time I put my foot down moved out and just kinda went crazy on him. He changed. Hes okay now, I fear him cheating alllllllllllllll the time.

Yeah so do I. I've let him get away with it before too and I've been paranoid ever since.
