Brief History

 

Met in 2002: I was 16 and she was 14

2008: Daughter Was born

early 2011: She broke up with me

summer 2011: Tried to reconcile for a few months but broke up around Christmas time

 

I have had two serious relationships (recent break up in July) since then and she was engaged (Broke up around the same time I did)

 

Right now we are friendly. I slipped a little while ago and slept with my ex-girlfriend just to prove to her and myself I was over her. It turned out there are some harboring feels. When we broke up five years ago I was devastated. I waited for her for almost five years hoping she would want me back, then I met a wonderful girl but our relationship didn't work out.

 

The ex-girlfriend had admitted she was jealous of the girlfriend and admitted that was the only reason she was so cold toward her. I turned around and fought for more time with my daughter. We had a working arrangement before but she turned cold on me too.

 

Anyway, she told me she wanted to get back together. I told her I didn't want to yet, I find myself drawn to her. She seems to really want to be with me and two months later she is still saying she wants to be with me. She has sent me some flirty messages. Some I have returned and some I have ignored.

 

A part of me wants to jump into a relationship with her. A part of me is telling me to let it go. I love her and care for her but I don't know if this is the right choice. Have we worked through the issues needed to get back together, are we compatible anymore. I don't even know if her intentions are genuine.

She may be genuine. After all, you started when you were very very young, she may have needed to experience some life without you. Now she's 28(?), grown up and experienced, and may have a much better understanding about what's she really wants.

 

But at the same time she may change her mind tommorow, next year, in 10 years, or never. I don't think that the past gives you much wisdom in predicting the future.

 

What ever you decide, it's a total gamble (ain't we all?).
