basically im going out with my ex again , ive had 2 relationships that heve never ever worked out and I used to constantly think about him even after 2 year.

me and him started going out when we were 14-16 and now we are 18 and ready to go on a date to see how things go,I know we are going to be different people now, but im just hoping that thats a good thing as we'll be more mature. We have been ringing each other regularly and texting and ive finally got him to come out this Monday.

I split up with my latest ex 2 weeks ago and i knew it wasnt right and im ready to get back with my true love but dont want to get my hopes up.

Does anybody think a good laugh and catch up is ok and if it works out maybe take things slow ? He has had several relationships but he said he has barriors fighting them off and they dont last longer than a few weeks or even days !

What are you views on this ?

My views are you are a tad optimistic given his history of very short relationships and there being a reason he is your ex in the first place.

aunt honesty agony auntYes it is perfectly ok to go out and meet each other and see what happens. But do not build up your hopes in anyway at all. Just think about it like you are meeting up with an old friend to catch up and take it from there. See how you both get on as friends first and yes my advice would be to take it slow. He may not be the same guy you fell in love with and vice versa. Therefore dont think about getting back together with him yet just take your time and get to know each other all over again. Goodluck.

ashley187 agony auntThe problem with old relationships starting back up is that there's so much history that they seem to end up where they left off in like a week! (You know your already comfortable, don't have to tell them all the details about you).. but if you still think about him after 2 years (and you're not just going back to him because you had 2 bad relationships so you're settling for this one--don't do that!) good luck! I was with someone for a long time and years later I still think about him, but would never go back-- too much history/mistakes.. sometimes it's hard to forgive and forget. Take things slow.. it's okay to have a good time. Just don't get your hopes up and do not sleep with him right away! Big no no. Good luck, let me know how it goes !!
