Why does this program not end?

Hi, This is my java minesweep game:

Code:

import java.io.*;

public class MineSweep1
{
	static BufferedReader input = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
	static private Bomb[] bmbArry = new Bomb[3];
	static private char matrix[][];

	public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException
	{
		char x,y;
		matrix = new char[5][5];

		for(int z = 0; z < 3; z++)
			bmbArry[z] = new Bomb();
		boolean explode;
		explode = false;

		for(x=0;x<5;x++)
			for(y=0;y<5;y++)
			matrix[x][y] = '*';
			System.out.println("");

		while (! (explode))
		{
			for(x=0;x<5;x++)
			{
			   for(y=0;y<5;y++)
			      System.out.print(matrix[x][y]+" ");
			System.out.println("");
			}
			explode = GetUserInput();
		}
	}

	static boolean GetUserInput() throws IOException
	{
		int userX, userY;
		System.out.println("Please enter an X position");
		userX = Integer.parseInt(input.readLine());
		System.out.println("Please enter an Y position");
		userY = Integer.parseInt(input.readLine());

		return IsItABomb(userX, userY);
	}

	static boolean IsItABomb(int X, int Y) throws IOException
	{
		for(int x=0;x<bmbArry.length;x++)
		{
		if((bmbArry[x].GetXpos() == X) && (bmbArry[x].GetYpos() == Y))

			return GetUserInput();
		}
	return false;

	}
}

when i run it and i hit a bomb, it is supposed to say "press any key to continue...." but it doesn't say that ever.
Thanks.

You have a loop there that will never say there is a bomb...when your program should return true for IsItABomb you just call getUserInput again and that goes back and calls IsItABomb again...there is no "return true;" for a bomb...
