Falling in love again

There is a back story here but for the time being is rather not go into it all, but do you think that you can ever fall back in love with someone you've previously loved?

Yes it’s possible. But mostly I think when things have ended then they’re unlikely to work a second time round.

They can do , if you know what you both need to work on.

PilatesPeach · 31/08/2019 20:48

Yes

I am too frightemend to be hurt again to allow myself to open up again and 'fall in love' again tbh.

For me, to be able to do that would require some very specific conditions and the trust that H wouldnt return to his old ways. Im not sure how i could build that trust as, for me, it is actaully linked with the love I had for him??

Yes, I think so.

I think it depends on the reason for breaking up and how much trust has been broken. As you say, trust plays a big part in how you feel about someone.

I recently got back together with an ex and I have to say that I don't think I ever stopped loving him but I had to break up with him because he wasn't taking our relationship seriously. Now we both want something more serious things are much better.

I would say if you still have feelings give it a go. Just take it really slowly and one day at a time.

Of course. 😊

Yes I have am with an ex from 16 years ago we are now older and wiser there was no trust issues or anyone involved with the first split we are now happy together and I like that we can share memories from the past. But as people have said it does depend on the reasons for the first split and if cheating is involved then maybe not ??
