Ok, So Everything Is Good... And Now My Ex Is Back Posted: 02-22-07 14:28pm
Ok, so my relationship has been pretty
good for the past few weeks. A sparing
argument now and then, a pretty rough one
two weeks ago, but that was solved.
However, now my ex, who ended our
relationship on good terms, is back. Well,
not back, but she recently contacted me.
Anyway, we had made the promise when we
broke up that if we didn't have anyone at
the end of college, we would try to get
back together. However, I remember very
well that our relationship (me and my ex),
was a lot better than my current. The only
problem is that I'm not sure if my ex
would accept me the way my current
girlfriend does.
So, the positive side of my ex is I know
she will treat me the way I want to be
treated. The positive side of my current
relationship is that my girlfriend accepts
me for all that I am. I think my ex might
have some problems with things, but most
things would still be ok between us.
My girlfriend asked me the other day "you
aren't going to leave me because she's
back, are you?" I said no, but I think
about the two relationships and try to
weigh things. What's more important? Being
treated right, or being loved for
everything? I'm sure my ex and I would be
able to talk over things, but I don't know
what to do. Just thinking about it today,
I actually thought that going back to my
ex might be better for me.

Damn, that is a tough one. I would say at
this point it would be better to stay with
the woman you are with now. For one thing,
she thinks you will because you told her
you would, and it would be pretty hard on
her to break that trust. Also, if she
accepts you for who you are now, I would
say thats the way to go. You have to live
in the present; even if you think you were
happier with your ex, you've inevitably
grown and changed as a person since then.
Your current girlfriend knows you and
accepts you for who you are right now.
There's a good chance you won't have the
same luck with your ex. I hope it all
works out well for you!
