I want him back

ok so this guy and I dated for like a month and a half then I broke up with him because he was too immature..well a couple months later I wanted him back so we date for anotha month and a half. then when I thought things were going great he breaks up with me. I was shocked and hurt. he didnt tell me why, but a friend he was close to told me it was because pple were tellin him I was a hoe and I was cheating on him. which couldnt be farther from the truth. anyway…so I moved on (sorta). we had not talked for a long time then we started talkin again. he was the same as ever chraming me and everything. I had a b/f but I broke up with him because I felt it was wrong to date him when I liked my ex. my ex also had a g/f. I couldnt live in suspense nemore so I told him how I felt and asked him how he felt. he told me he liked me, but wanted to see how far his new relationship could go. so I said ok and vowed I’d get over him. I was doin well until I saw him again. (he lived far away) all my feelings came rushing back and now im back in love with him. We’ve started talking again now and its like we had never stop being “friends” . he’s been asking me about my life and how things have been. he’s even gone back to the tactics he use to do when we were “courting” we make fun of eachother and it just seems like how things use to be. im not sure what he is up to though? I want to know does he just like me as a friend…or is he maybe preparing to ask me out???
