writes:I have become close again with my ex-girlfriend. I love her to bits and always have and i think she wants to start something up again as we kissed the other day. She broke up with me 6 months ago because we kept arguing. We now have different friendship groups but have always stayed friends although ive always secretly had feelings for her. I'm worried that my friends (maybe family) wouldnt accept her because of her hurting me in the past. Should i just go for it and tell anyone who thinks im a fool to shove it? Can it work a 2nd time round? Im so confused!

This reminds me of a lesson from my Psychology class... I'm not saying that everyone would be right in saying that its a bad idea to go out with her again, but this attitude "Should i just go for it and tell anyone who thinks im a fool to shove it?" is not always a good one. People might say its nice that you two are back together, who knows. Though if all of your friends, family, etc... say its a bad idea, then there's a good chance that it is. Like the situation a friend of mine was in. Everyone around him, friends, family, and even I told him going out with her was a bad idea... And hey what do you know, it WAS a bad idea because he just got hurt in the end. But yeah I guess its your life and do what you want, hopefully this could give you some insight

 Unless the girl you are with gives the majority of your friends and family "the creeps", which that would be something to take a look at, you should be building confidence in making your own decisions. Later on down the line, you want the woman in your life to marry YOU, not your family, which is what she'll be doing if they make all your decisions for you. They could be right, she may not be the best for you, but that is something you have to learn on your own and you certainly don't want to regret not being with her if they are wrong.

Yea man its your life, not theirs. No one can tell you who you can and can not love, its not their place and it never will be. However, sometimes people can see things that you can not due to being blinded by love. Maybe not do as people tell you, but if you respect the person who is telling you, you should definitely give it some thought. I learned this the hard way, and though I do not regret anything i have done, I do wish that I would have done some things differently.
