Question Is it real?

I have been getting very close with my ex (who is my best friend) and it scares me. I don't know if I'm allowing this because I'm heart-broken from my relationship with MM and it feels nice to have someone who really cares or is it genuine feelings that I feel for him. I don't want to hurt him. Do I tell him that maybe we should not get so close again or just let it happen?

Give it time sister

Who knows.. maybe there is potential for the two of you to get back together.. and Ex for a best friend.. not a bad thing as far as I'm concerned.

As long as you're not making him promises you don't know if you can keep, and your being honest and sincere.. then I say don't push him away and see what develops.

Yeah... I'm always honest with him. I just don't want HIM to be my re-bound guy. He's too special to me to do that to him.
