What if the that got away came back?
Seriously.
What if?
Let me.tell.you.my story.
I met someone online in the year 2009. Then we became a couple months after and few months after, we meet.
Let us call this person, "E".
Me and E, were in a long distance.relationship. "E", was taking up culinary somewhere in Manila, while i am here, Ilocos.
After graduation, "E" has to go back to Vegas.
Communication was ok at first, then it is just...poof!
Never heard anything from "E", for 4 years until last 2014. "E" found me on twitter, asked for my number and i am just one willing person.
I didn't asked anything on why, what had happened.
Months after, we eventually get back to each other and.still.on a long distance relationship.
Then the "disappearing act" happened again just more than 6 months after getting back.
And until.now, haven't heard anything from "E".
Am thinking, did i made the right choice of taking back the one that got away?
*Insert "the one that got away" by Katy Perry(acoustic version), lol.

LDRs can be a pain in the behind. I got a couple of TOTGAs myself and I know that I've been a TOTGA for other ladies in my life. LOL!

That is scary how you guys lost touch! I cannot do long distance relationships and worrying about someone who doesn't even remain in contact. I agree with @Shavkat - you deserve better!!

Sounds like you need to find out what happened. All of a sudden things went soar. You need to know why. Perhaps there's no need to know why. Lonh distance relationships can be difficult to manage but if two people are willing to make it work then there's chances of survival.

I don't think you should have given this person a second chance. It's either he makes the effort to see you or never talk to this guy ever again. you never know if he already has family or in a relationship. I think you have given this guy enough consideration to the point were he started taking you for granted again.

@Lucky15 don't worry i made mistake too, I did the samething that guy did, but she's still in my facebook. not that i disappeared, i just didn't have anything to tell her, and in the end we both end up silent.

It might seem like it, but it was always a long distance relationship. You never met in person, or did I miss something up there. So I don't think there was ever anyone that got away because other than online, he really wasn't there.

@Lucky15 But you missed the opportunity.... 
Next time he dare appear in front of you, don't miss it....

I'm not a fan of long distance relationship. I don't think I can make it like you do. I believe that a good relationship is built on good communication which you won't have if you're only texting, chatting or email-ing. technology can add distance to your already distant relationship and that's not a good thing. Maybe, just maybe it would be better if you cast your eyes on someone else who can be there for you. Who really will want to be with you. We're all hopeless romantics sometimes and that's okay. But don't waste another year or two trying to look for the answers why he is not with you.

I am not sure, but it seems like he is not really serious in this relationship. I just can't imagine how he could just disappear for years, and come back, but not telling you why.
What is over is over, but perhaps it's time for you to move forward, and forget about him.
Well, of course, it's your decision to make, and you know him better than all of us.

Once is enough, twice is too much. The next time he appears again, give him what he deserves: SILENCE!

You don't deserve someone whose just in touch when he's bored.

It's fine if you meet once in a while and are just friends. Nothing more, no serious relationship.
