O>K> I did a stupid thing.. I slept with my ex after 6 months of being split...what did i learn.....it's not the same........physically we know a lot about each other because we were together for 3 years and 2 years on and off but emotionally i think that our time has past... I am looking for something more stable in my life. Recently an ex of mine from about 10 years ago came into my life again and we have resolved a lot of issues. We both have changed and like who we are now. He says that he would like for us to try again and would like to make a serious committment to me( marriage) He is very attentive and keeps in touch regularly. We have even scheduled a date for dinner. Now that my oldest sone is in college and the yougest (15) is the same as his one son I have to think about where i would like to be in the futures. My current ex is content to have a sometime thing withoug committment and that is not cool with me. I think this will be our last encounter because at least now i know i have options. I think they have always been there but i could not let go of the pain long enough to see them.....It's time to stop the maddness and move on. For anyone who has ever made the mistake of "going back" just realize that sometimes it is a way to move forware- forgive yourself, think about what you learned and move on.
