A former boyfriend of mine and I had re-connected just a month ago through the help of Faceboo. He got my number and called me on my cellular phone. Since then, he was asking me to be with him again. Our relationship before happened 5 years ago. Now he claims that he realized that I was the one whom he truly loves so he wants me back.
Just today, as we were about to end our casual conversation, he told me he loves me. He never told me that he loved me when we were still a couple. What could this possibly mean? Is he for real? Is he really into me. By the way, he is asking me to marry him too.

Wow! I am excited! Give him a chance. I hope you like him still though. Love is sweeter the second time around.

I am really excited too. but I try to surpress the excitement to think clearly. I am giving him the chance to prove himself. I hope he's worth it.

I think the mere fact that he find ways to be with you again (through social networking) is already an indicator that he's really into you. Might as well give it a shot but don't fall too much. Although love is sweeter the second time around, the pain for it being unsuccessful again is also much stronger than before. Good luck with you friend.

What was the reason for the break up in the first place?
It seems he is being a little desperate too, so take care. No fault in giving him a second chance but if he has cheated on you before, you need to watch out. That is why i wanted to know why you both broke up in the first place. It could be, that you both didn't think much about each other that time and now he missed you so wants you more.Take care, all the best!

Hi JOIEMARVIC,
Reconnecting with a past lover is always nice. Then, after we get the stars out of our eyes we must remember why we broke up in the first place. Was it because someone cheated (big problem) or was it just an insignificant lover's quarrel?
You say that you have not had any contact with this ex-boyfriend in five years, if I am reading your discussion correctly, which is a very long time. So much time has past and a lot could and probably has happened in both your lives. I would think that you would want to know what has been going on in his life and if there is anyone in his heart other than you, right now.
Did you move away from the area and he didn't know where to find you? Why did it take him five years to realize that he made a huge mistake in letting you go? If there was no Facebook, would he have moved heaven and earth to find you? Or it is because of Facebook he found you?
I hope for your sake that he is as genuine as the Hope Diamond. If he is telling you no lies, then you are a very lucky lady. Some people are lucky enough to get a second chance.
I wish you all the best.

Thanks. I appreciate your point of view on this matter. I guess I should be asking him the same question. Would he move Heaven and Earth to find me again. I hope we both get that second chance.

Hi JOIEMARVIC,
I glad that you are thinking smart. Fire can burn you twice and I wouldn't want that for you. Follow your intitution, or your gut feelings.
Good Luck

fact 1. I don't want to spit on his face. fact 2. we ended our relationship 5 years ago with a good note. I know he deserves a chance. What I need to know is if I would reconsider or not.

Nothing is wrong with that if that's what he really feels. Challenge him. Tell him to say that in your face. If both of you are still single, why not pursue what you both feel. Why don't you have a date together and fix things out. Who knows you might be able to patch things up and fix the broken pieces.

hello joimarvic,
I am not sure how old you are and if you were in your teens when you broke up I would say go for it. You had five years of seperation and you both grew from other relationships and he seems to know what he wants and see that in you. Yes, I would say take you time because if he really loves he let you see how he improved and show other ways that he really cares about you and that this is for real for him.
I am really ahppy for you and seem like you still have feelings for this guy which is very cool...usually most people relealise that person was not meant for them after they have been with someone else. Good luck and keep us posted.
Thanks Unique16

Well i think, maybe he rebounding from another disaster relationship.I think maybe u can give him time and restart back the courtship if u r still interested in him.I think suddenly want to be together back and said i love u and let get marry is too soon too fast to be true.Better be sure then later he regret and breakoff like previously.So i guess take it slow and enjoy the courtship,start with friendship first and test his patient.

Hello JOIEMARVIC :)
I'm not a person who gives second chance to my ex boyfriends, but your story sounds realistic. I mean 5 years are good time to understand what you want in this life. And it's good time to make flashback of your past. :)
If you don't have an other relationship now and you were happy with this guy, don't miss that chance ;)
Cheers

nobody knows us better except us...past is past. you accepted him back. what matters most is how he make you feel love by now? you can feel it. as a woman, we always need an assurance from our man how much we are loved...if you feel the assurance for now, his sincerity about asking him to marry. maybe he loves you enough. now maybe the problem is in your side because you rely on the past, you have to ask yourself this a million times, DO I LOVE HIM ENOUGH TO MARRY HIM? then the floors is yours to determine yourself.

if he ask you to marry him well that just a sign that he really loves you why?no guy in this world will live with a woman that he doesnt love maybe perhaps for some situation but asking for marriage simply signifies truthfullness and love

Marry?? well in fact, we can't gives you any clue, it is only you who can feel the real feeling from him is it real or fake, just be sure before you make any crucial decision, married things is a serious things in life
I think you need more time to think about it ....
Hopes you'll find the answer

I have no idea about why he said this romantic sentence. And you must make the final decision yourself. I have only one advice to you, my friend! If you tend to have a try with him, I personally think you should make a clear investigation on what happened to him, especially his emotional world in the five years.

Woah! It's too fast, but I am happy for you. It really feels good to know that people are happy because of love. If I will to ask you, I will give the guy the chance he if really deserves it. I think destiny is finding it's way for you to be back again and I hope this time it will be for real. But in marriage I think it's still early why not enjoy being together first and if the love will continue to grow then that's the time that you have to consider being married. Good luck and continue to share love.

Its is very nice to hear that some body still want you back.Your past boy friend realized that how good you are.You already know him very well because you had 5 years relationship before.I think he really want you back, so love the one who loves you not the one whom do you love.

If he is asking to marry him then u have to think whether u want or not. Whether u will be happy with him or not. Whether u love him or not. But since he have asked for marriage then i think he is being honest to you and regretting what ever happened in past b/w u both.

Sometimes Love is Selfish for both two persons who love each other,sometimes destiny take us to the path were we will realized that we need to separates for some circumstances but on your part sometimes Saying goodbye to the persons you love most in the past will help you to realized you how much she/he loves you in the future. That's why there are terms that called second chance :)
