My boyfriend and I are both religious. Recently he prayed to God to have me break up with him if we aren't meant for each other. Soon after that I broke up with him because I was feeling overwhelmed. I immediately realized it was a mistake and I do want to be with him. Do you think this is a sign from God we aren't meant for each other? Should I try to get him back? I love this man with all of my heart and can truly picture is spending our lives together.

He prayed for this to happen, and it happened. Doesn't that say something to you? Sure, you might be able to get him back, but if you're really meant for each other why would you have broken up?

Let it ride.
Don't chase him.
The right man will chase you until you catch him.
This guy may not be him.
Whatever you do, don't chase him.
You would be surprised how emotions change over time.
You want God's best for you don't you.
Don't chase any man.
Let it ride.

Don't let your feelings dictate your actions. If this is a sign, then the best thing to do is move on. I was in love with someone recently, but it didn't work out. The best thing to do is move on. Focus on God, let him reassure you that he has better. Many times we want to settle for less when God wants more of us. What you think is not always what God wants...From recent experience. :p

My big question is, how old are you? The bottom line is, if one of you or both of you are not mature enough for a long term relationship, then it's better you don't try to start one.

Just hold everything up in prayer. God's desire for your lives will take place, but only if you allow them to, and believe me, He has far greater plans for you than you know. Pray for His will to be done, and not your own.

God works in mysterious ways <3
I know an example similar to this, but the guy fought for the girl and they have now been married for 2 years.
im not saying fight or not fight. But if you love him enough to fight and still be rejected, and if he is not wanting to put any effort in, then thats what he will like when you are married.
It takes two determined people to make a relationship work !!!
and Gods blessing :p

Leave it as it is. God would bring you back together if He thought fit. Don't think about it any more.

I agree completely to Kia123 .... If you feel u love him after u break up with him then it says something... share your feelings with him and find out how he feels

As a woman you're not supposed to be chasing after a guy. And if he let you break if off without a fight then he doesn't really want you. when i broke up with my ex it took me an HOUR to get out of his house cause he wouldn't let me go. this is a guy who won't cry for ANYTHING and he's sobbing on my shoulders. Thats the kinda reaction you want from a guy that you want to still be with. but if he just kinda said "well this is sad" and let things be then i wouldn't chase after him.

It might be a good idea to talk and tell him that you'd like to try again and if he says something like "I have to think about it" or "I can't handle right now" what he's doing is having control over you and your feelings and you don't need to be hung up on someone who doesn't want to treat you like the jewel that God made you to be. It sucks when you're still hurting but one day you WILL get past it. just gotta keep taking steps.
