This Week's Topic: Does my relationship deserve a second chance?
They say the dating "game" is rough; the older you become, the
harder it is to trust, there's the baggage and the "other stuff." Well
folks, sorry to say but the older you become, the more baggage you just
may carry. So the question is, because you are familiar with an ex,
would you consider giving him/her a second chance at a relationship? We
know, they say an ex is an ex for a reason, but could it be that the
timing just could have been wrong? Some folk simply DO NOT need to
repeat, but others may need to take the leap of faith.
Before going into anything, whether old or new, you need to know if it is worth it. You also need to ask yourself, what was the cause of the breakup. Did they cheat, cheat and try to hide it? In that, would getting back with them only reinforce that behavior and what lesson was learned? Can a person really change? How about those emotions? Were they emotional or emotionless?
Then there is the unfinished business. I think many get stuck there, the need to know phase. Make sure you're not holding on to the simple "thought of them."
Many times we don't go through the silent treatment to clarity. What's the silent treatment? It is no texting, no talking on the phone, no FaceBook, no Twitter over a period of time. Ask yourself, do you miss them before you miss having someone around and don't like being by yourself? Let's talk about it and make sure you're simply not lonely. Whether you believe it or not, something lies deep within that makes one do what they do.
