My girl and I were best friends as well as lovers for 5 years, cohabitating, practically married at 21. I cheated on her before and broke her heart and she took me back as a friend, then later as a lover. Now it is my turn. She broke my heart pretty bad and did me really dirty, but now, a month later, she realizes her mistake and is coming to me for advice about the problem, just as I did her years ago. It has been 1 month since I left the apartment, about 3 weeks NC and I thought I would never talk to her again until she came calling and of course I answered. My friends are criticizing me for opening the doors so fast after all the pain she caused but I'm really happy around her and am willing to look at this as just another obstacle on our course together, except this time I am on the receiving end of the pain. I have always been happy that even after I ****ed her over she gave me another chance (it took over a year though) and I have never nor will ever do her that way again. Not that I feel I owe her another chance, but I want to give her one because I believe that she is still a good person and simply made a mistake out of youth and inexperience, just as I did. I am concerned that this can possibly blow up in my face if I'm not careful though? Is there anything I should watch out for, other than getting back with her prematurely, or does it sound like my head is on straight?

Will it blow up? It could, but there's only one way to find out.

 

If she makes you happy and sounds contrite, then go for it. Risk equals reward, even though it's still a risk. At least you're not afraid to take it (and grow from it).
