Welcome to the board jlh0396,


If you want to try things again with him, then let him know that you would like too. This way you won't have any regrets about not

Hi J


I'm sorry to hear of what has happened.


When I first started dating my guy, we too got very serious very quickly.

There is nothing at all wrong with slowing things down a bit. Being just friends wouldn't work, but if you return to simply dating that's fine. Enjoy your time together and let there be spaces between your dates so each of you can not feel as though you are losing your entire life and perhaps self. It can be frightening to get too close to fast, especially to guys, who wake up one day and have no idea how they got where they are. So, I would be light about it, and suggest just dating. If the relationship between you two is truly going to work, this will not break it apart, but give it chance to grow naturally and be even stronger in the long run.


Best wishes,
