Oh how I did laugh at this. You and I are on the same wavelength.
Yeah, I didn't want to be the first one.
Good luck to you with whatever you choose to do, truly.

I would first like to know how long you were married to him and what was the reason for splitting up. Most people don't change their stripes, so unless he's had an epiphany, he might be the same guy you left. I think what someone said earlier was a good idea: start dating. You don't want to be an emotional crutch for a guy who can't stand living buy himself. People like that are usually passive-aggressive types.
Yes. I think you need to realize the extent to which you are vulnerable to your own emotions such that you might be led astray, so you must not assume anything. Date for an indefinite amount of time. Wait to see if he starts putting pressure on you in some way or other. I think if he's sincere he won't pressure you.
So, some of you here think I am making a mistake. I get that. I wonder that my own self. But, so far things have been good, and I am not jumping into living together, or marriage any time soon.
I am going to play the waiting game, and then go from there.
We were married for a little over 10 years to answer Mr. Cranky.

I think folks will just want the best for you, Mary... you're one of us (one of us...) and so we naturally worry for your well-being.
Yeah, I know. Just slow, and easy for me.I think folks will just want the best for you, Mary... you're one of us (one of us...) and so we naturally worry for your well-being.
My cousin married her first husband twice. I don't know why they divorced but they've remained married since the second marriage. I kinda think it was an absense makes the heart grow fonder type of thing. My hubby married his first wife twice and divorced her twice. When I asked why he married her a second time, he just says he was stupid lol.
Anyways... if you believe your ex is someone you'd like to live the rest of your life with, there's no harm in giving it a try

I was married to my ex for 13 years.
I wouldn't take him back on a silver plate with a gold apple shoved in his..........um.....mouth!

Maybe just long enough to take a picture?
Lots of good advice already given from both perspectives. Hope the outcome is whatever is best for you.
Not me. I was just kidding around. You sound happy, so it must be a good thing.
I have one ex, I suppose, that I might get back with--provided she undergo some serious electroshock therapy, maybe a full lobotomy. But, like, that's just too much bother (to say nothing of being unethical).
I have a couple of theories about second chances so far as matters of the heart go. (Beware:They involve run on sentences.)
One is that, although folks do mean to change and do try to, it's rare that they do and I am not willing to trust them and make the same mistake twice. That's my personal rule of thumb. I'm a big chicken about intimate relationships, so I'm not a good one for second chances, or even advise about them, the truth to be told here.
The other is one of unconditional love and acceptance. To simply accept that what ever they did is part of their nature and to accept that they will do it again and when they do, accept it, continue to be happy and in love and move forward.
An additional third, a bonus theory, if you will. Trust but verify. I think you are doing the third one, and it's probably the wisest approach.

How about on a gold plate with a silver apple?
