Barely 3 months ago an ex whom I broke up with more than a year ago started to reconnect. We never heard from each other after the breakup. At first I was surprised when he started keeping in touch again but I actually welcome the gesture (us being friends). He wants us back together and he really is pursuing. Having said that, my heart says not again. I think I am more comfortable us being friends than lovers again.
It really comes to a point in our lives that after the rain and storm, we get up and get over it and move on. Sometimes we discover that it is easier to start a new chapter if we leave all the pain behind and treat it as a learning experience.

I had the same thing happen to me. After alot of years that passed my ex called me one day out of the blue and wanted to reconnect on some level. Friend wise only since he was smart enough to know I didn't want to go there again. Learning experience for sure but are you really serious about wanting to get back together with him? Am I misunderstanding?

Hi lexirose! I think its great that you are able to put the bad stuff behind you and move on. I would be a bit cautious about the friendship though. You mentioned that he wants to get back together and is pursuing that. It sounds like he has not put the relationship behind him. He might reconsider the friendship when he sees that you are not going to be with him after all. Just be careful..I don't want you to be hurt. Friends can do that more than anyone else.

I agree with you. It didn't work the first time so what makes him think it's going to work the second time? Once it's over, there's no need to keep rehashing it. As for myself, I've always said, 'I don't go backwards' and I don't. Once it's over, it's over and done with. No amount of convincing will work.
