Hi JustUs,
2 Years ago, my ex and I parted ways. It was tough, but we both went on with our separate lives. 2 weeks ago we bumped into each other at a pet store. He asked for my cell number and I gave it to him thinking it wouldn’t be anything more than just catching up. We talked at this store for what seemed like an hour or longer. We seemed to just pick up from where we left off as if nothing ever happened between us.
Now let me give you some background on our break up. He was going through a divorce and lost his job all in that same year. We began living together and because of his finances, I was taking care most the bills. I was (am) a pretty good woman. I cooked, cleaned, gave him a few dollars for gas (or pocket money), etc. and he needed for nothing. In spite of my efforts to make the relationship work, he cheated. He lied and started many arguments that were totally unnecessarily. He really hurt me. He now says that he was just going through a bad time in his life and made poor decisions. He says he always knew I was a good woman and regrets how he treated me.
My family and friends think I am crazy for giving him my number and wanting to regain connections. They tell me that he is of my past and I should let him go. On the other hand they say it is my choice and I have to be the one to make decisions for myself. Why are they so contradicting? But to be honest, I don't even know what I want. I do know that I was really happy with him and really wanted us to work. But I don't think I want to go thru that heartache again. What do you think Justus? Is it worth it?
