my ex says he wants to try again, but i'm not in love with him. it'd be nice to have someone there. should i play him?

That's just childish IMO.

lol.. I had a very very similar thought once.. I was single.. hadn't had sex in about six months or so.. and my ex and the girl he left me for got into a fight and he decided he wanted me back (he had a habit of doing that.. but I never went for it.. not stupid).. he just didn't want to be alone..

I was almost convinced to just string him along regardless of his feelings (cuz he totally smurfed me over).. mainly because the sex was really really good with him.. and I was kind of in a dry spell.. lmao..

Fortunately a good friend talked me out of it.. Its never a good idea to smurf with someone's emotions.. especially your own.. and whether you think so or not.. it will smurf with your emotions too.

No. You don't smurf with people like that.

Should you play him? No, WTF.

You either give the man another chance or you don't.

Jesus Christ.

That's smurfing stupid. Way to be an smurf.

yes. play with him 

WTF? Is this a serious question :/

That is beyond childish. You either give him a chance or don't. Don't play childish games..

In the end, He'd really only be playing you, I mean he'll be getting laid out of it until he finds someone else, So not sure exactly what your revenge would be? Just because he says he want's to try again, Doesn't mean he's legit, Maybe he's just lonely and wants a regular shag ...

You might see it as a chance at revenge, But you'd just be compromising yourself for something and someone you should be moving on from.

Yeah, when this came up with my ex.. I knew he'd be using me.. so, I was thinking... smurf it, I'll use him back.. lmao.. and if he ends up with his feelings hurt in the process, good.. (u just don't even know how bad he screwed me over tho)..

So, I kind of figured.. we'd be using each other.. He is desperate not to be alone.. regardless of who he's with.. and I needed to get laid.. lol.. I wouldn't want to emotionally invest, cuz I know he'd end up taking off again.. but.. what if I could take off before he did.. What if I could hurt Him this time? What if?

Its understandable why your head goes there.. I think its understandable to consider it.. to think about it.. to imagine how nice it would be to be the one who's on top this time.. the one who isn't getting crushed but might be doing the crushing..

But although thoughts of revenge are understandable.. the act of revenge is not likely to be the way you imagine it to be.. and you'll get hurt in the process too, no matter how sure you are that you won't.

Personally, I'm glad that I didn't give into that revenge temptation.. because a lot of time has passed now.. I've completely forgiven him.. and I'm glad that I didn't let smurf get more complicated (emotionally) than it already was.. for either of us.

Sometimes, you just gotta be done with a person and resolve your emotional issues with that on your own.  

No, even if he did something bad to hurt you, revenge is never the way to go. It's not going to make you feel better in the long run. You either want to seriously give him a chance or not. From the sound of it, i'm guessing no. Just tell him to move on with his life and don't mess with his emotions like a teenage girl.

sounds like a great ideat at first but nah. You want to make him suffer? say no.
