I love her but her Ex-BoyFriend is Trying to Win her back and she loves him

I think that is the best way to summarize his story "I love her but her Ex-BoyFriend is Trying to Win her back and she loves him", that's Deji's story i mean. He was talking to me about this girl he really loves but now discovers her ex-boyfriend is really trying to win her back.

According to his story, He met Joke when she was emotionally down due to the broken relationship with her boyfriend. They got close and she opened up to him, Deji is a good listener and somewhere along the line, There chemistry grew and well from Deji's point, He is in Love with the girl and she feels the same and now as he is planning to ask her out to a serious relationship. He notices the sudden sight of a young man who he noticed eventually was the ex of her soon to be lover.

Now talking to his friend, He notices that she is bulging and thinking of giving in to the repentance scheme of the ex and while he thinks his love is stronger, He says she feels happy to be getting back so he doesn't want to tell her that he is in love with her....

I say that is not right, Tell her and let her choose especially when you feel you are a better choice. abi what ya think? Don't quit before the battle begins, Fight for what you love - isn't that the love message we all preach?
