I believe that love may get sweeter and stronger the second time around so I may give this one a chance. But it really depends o the reason why you broke up in the past. If it was because of him being unfaithful, I might doubt trusting him once again and starting new. If it has to do with immaturity or priorities before and he present himself to be prepared now, then I might give it a second chance. Who knows if we may now be stronger this time.

If both of you are still available, why not? However, you have to consider why you broke up in the first place. If you separated amicably, it might be good to get together with him again. If you broke up because you just couldn't get along, then it's not a good idea. The problems you had might still be there and haunt your second-round relationship. So I say examine what you want in a relationship. If getting back with him will be good for you, then by all means, go for it. xoxoxo!

The seconf time around will never be the same. Wounds may heal but there may be scars left behind. The reasons for the previous break-up may resurface. What makes i worse is the fact that a second chance has been given to the relationship. On an optimistic note the seconf time may be better if 1) None of you had a different relationship. 2) Both of you can really forget the hurt, if any. 3) Both of you can accept the fact that there have been changes in personal outlook. 4) Both of you can remember what exactly caused the separation, and strive not to repeat the same mistake(s). 5) Both of you can look atthe rekindled relationship as new, untarnished by or burdened with previous memories. At the end of the day it is your call.

Hmmm... I will answer this based on my experience. This would be all up to you. Before, I believed that I should do whatever I want because that would make me happy. But as I grow older, I realized that I should first try to see both sides of the story. If you broke up with him before, what was the reason? Do you really think that you will never be on that same situation again? If you will answer yes, better weigh the consequences and good reasons first before you decide because even though you love him, if you will be the one to get hurt again, i think that would be too much. as the saying goes, "once is enough, twice is too much."
