This is a matter you need to discuss with friends or family not complete stargers. they will understand better and help you make the right choice.

And if that doesn't work, you could always try to pray. Who knows what will happen.

Ok.. so I would love to say he is for real this time, and maybe he is, but you have to think why did you split up in the first place? You are young ... and I know I am sounding like an old woman... but hun, you have your whole life ahead of you!!!! Having a boyfriend isn't the main thing in life... friends... family...these things are important. Listen to your mum! I know you will hate me for saying this but even though you don't want her to be... she will be right about things most of the time! Believe me I have been there and done that!!! If he wants to be part of your life tell him that you want to be friends. If he is happy with your friendship for the time being then great.... take it from there and see how things go. If he says no.. then you have your answer!!!

Mistify agony auntEverybody deserves a second chance, but just be careful. Yes, he went through a lot to try and get you back - but you have to try and remember WHY you broke up in the first place?

I'd vote to give him another chance, but just be vigilant to the warning signs that things might be going wrong again, and then GET OUT.

Good luck

You didn't say why you split up, so it's hard to give advice on this. Only you know if there is still something there I think you should talk to each other face to face discuss what went wrong and figure out if you can resolve it there's no point going straight back into the relationship if the same things going to happen again. All I can say is that you're both young and a piece of advice given to me when I was a teenager was "why should the guy who is right for you be on your doorstep?" i.e. he may not be the one for you.
