Should I or shouldn't I?

I started talking to my ex again. The reason we broke up was to get our life back on track. We had some misunderstandings and things also. So last night I decided to talk to him to see what he has been up to. So we got to talking about the past and what happened. He asked me if he would ever get a second chance. I want to but I'm scared of hurting the guy that I'm only friends with benefits with. I still want to be friends with him but I dunno. What do you think?

if you're hesitant for even one bit, then dont do it. take the time to think about it first. I mean, there must have been a reason why you guys broke up in the the first place right? it's possible to befriend an ex but it will probably take time, let old wounds heal first. besides, if you're meant to be, then you'll end up together for sure. meanwhile, enjoy singlehood. it's a blessing.

I'm not hesitant at all. We both want the same things out of life. The only reason we broke up in the first place was because we wanted to make our lives better and didn't want to hurt each other if we couldn't see or talk to each other. Singlehood is not a blessing in my experience. Personally I hate it LOL

Well, my dear, you need to know deep in your heart that you are willing to take a chance the second time around with your ex. If you see that you are not ready yet, then, let your ex know that you are not emotionally prepared for another round of a serious relationship and that you can only offer friendship. Be honest and true to yourself. Take care.

My question would be why are you only friends with benefits with this other guy? Answer that question and you will know what to do....
