Seeing someone when neither of you are emotionally available?

Just wondered if this was a daft idea really, we have known each other 5 years, get on really well and tried dating 2 years ago but he got too angsty about it so I ended it. It took longer to finish it than it did to date him.

We've decided to see each other again but with no emotional commitment (I spoke to a friend about it last night and she said 'no' pretty sharpish, she remembered the last time!). Neither of us would fall in love but I quite like being monogamous, even if it's more friendship based.

It's not too bad an idea is it?

You will be in a relationship.

One where neither is emotionally available would be pretty difficult really.

We’re not robots, we form bonds.

Be honest, be vulnerable and see where it goes.

Why would you have a relationship where neither gives anything to the other??

Sounds risky, but give it a go if you think it can work OP.

Good luck.
