I'm not talking about being boyfriend/girlfriend, breaking up and getting back together. I'm referring to people who have dated eachother for a while and were never exclusive, but for whatever reason decide to go separate ways and just remain friends. And then time passes, and there's the chance to possibly date them again.

 

Would you date them again considering you were never "together"? Or would you let the past be the past?

Date them again.. I don't really see any reason not to?

I once had a couple dates with someone I really liked. He was multi-dating and chose someone else over me... When that ended, he reached out to me again and I was excited about it. I told a close friend and he said some very wise words to me that made me give my head a shake:

 

"D, you weren't good enough for him the first time around for him to choose you, why would you give him a second chance?"

 

Those words of wisdom stuck with me and I refused to pick up where we'd left off.

 

Are there other circumstances that might elicit a different response from me? Perhaps.

This.

 

Nope, I would never give someone who chose someone else over me the first time around, a second go at it. I'll find someone else who likes me for who I am, and will treasure me instead of constantly being on the look-out for a "better deal."

I have, and I would recommend it.

depends on your situation. if the man just honestly got super busy with his job or family then I think it's fine. second chances are fine.

I once dated the same guy three times (maybe even four times, I'm not entirely sure). Each time, I somehow managed to forget why I stopped dating him the first time. Big mistake that I won't make again...
