They're ex for a reason

@Elessar that’s true, but people change

Maybe it just wasn’t the right time?

@Ashly People change and at the same time don't change at all 😅 especially when it comes to things that cause relationships to end, in my exp. Plus your mind could always go back to the first breakup and not process that pain well, making it hard/impossible to trust them again. Or I would wonder if I'm actually good with them, or if I just fell to the trap of nostalgia/habit/loneliness?

I'd say I'd evaluate if it's worth the risk on a case by case scenario, but on average at least for me it's more trouble than good

@Elessar I get what you’re saying papi

I usually give people another change and like more often it comes back to bite me 😒 I tend to believe that most people are good and can change for the better, but I’ve been wrong many times 😔

@Ashly Same here.. 🫂

Reading however that the first breakup happened on good terms due only to timings, maybe it's really worth giving it another chance, though (:
