JS17 Posted July 8, 2005 Posted July 8, 2005 at 27, i'm familiar with just about everything to do with dating except second chances. when i break up with someone, or they break up with me, it's OVER. now for the first time i'm thinking about getting back together with someone i dated briefly. I'll make my story short..... I had a really bad break up with my ex in January. At the end of March I met someone online, which i had never done before. We met in person at the end of April and clicked immediately. We went out through May and hit a bumpy patch in the middle of June. I think that I just moved too fast emotionally and physically. He was kind of a jerk about it but apologized. We thought about working things out but I think I just needed some space and didn't realize it so I broke up with him. Within a week I did the rebound thing. Now a few weeks later I'm thinking about getting back together with the guy I dated this spring, I realize how good we are together but I would need to take things slow. I also don't know if he's open to just friendship or dating again. How often do these second chances work? I haven't been through it before and I'm wondering if I'm just setting myself up for disappointment.
lvgrly Posted July 8, 2005 Posted July 8, 2005 From my experiences or what I know from second chances, It either makes the relationship better or worse than it was the first time.. Most of the time that I have gotten back with someone, it was always worse..Just because there are still some unresolved issues from the first time we were together.. Just as long as you remember that a break, or the ending of a relationship does not mean all of your problems with that person go away, they are just put to the back burner.. So I guess what I am trying to say, is if you have ANYTHING unresolved with him you might want to do that BEFORE you get into something else with him.. Good luck
Author JS17 Posted July 8, 2005 Author Posted July 8, 2005 in your experiences, did you restart your physical relationship right away? i think it would be in my best interest to hold off but i don't think he'd be too into that...i don't know.
