Rekindling An Old Flame. Worth It?

Recommended Posts

So I'm out in Chapel Hill last night, and through a mutual friend meet up with one of my exes.  Little back story, we started dating right before our senior year of high school and lasted a little over a year and a half.  Why did we break up?  Basically, no real answer. We both needed to do the college thing by ourselves and it was a good decision in retrospect, even if I didn't like it at the time.  We've only seen each other once in the past couple of years until last night.  

 

So last night we were in a group together, me basically just catching up with our mutual friend most of the time, but still a good amount of conversation and interaction with the ex.  She initiated a lot of the old memories and joked around about things, and as the group was leaving we walked out together.  My friend and the others basically left us (to give space I assume), and we hugged, said our goodbyes, and she said we need to catch up sometime (she's said this a couple times before).  

 

So now, do I follow through on that and ask her out?  I'm leaning towards yes, because I honestly did love the girl more than any of the others I've had and regret her getting away.  I feel like I'll hate myself if I never give it a chance, and think that maybe since we're both done with the college days now and moving to a more professional world it may work.  But at the same time, I also realize that getting back with exes hardly ever works and there's the obvious potential that she doesn't even want that.  We're both still 22 (I know, go slay all the ass you can), but this one is different and I've always known that.  

 

What say you Huddle, good idea to give it a shot or just move the hell on?

Yeah nothing weird about her at all, more just worried that the likelihood of two exes getting back together and working out being extremely slim.  The breakup wasn't even "wanted" I don't think.  She never gave a reason and cried/wouldn't get out of my car after she did it; members of her family even reached out to me saying they didn't know what happened.  She just knew that she needed to be single and do her own thing in college, which I can respect.  

 

I've always still had feelings for her, so the only hangup is rejection.  That said though, I really don't have anything to lose in the grand scheme of things, especially at my age.

She broke up with you because she was mature beyond her years at the time. She was off to college and:

  • Didn't want the weight of a committed relationship to slow her academic roll
  • Didn't want the weight of a committed relationship should she happen to meet someone who would create feelings of guilt
  • Didn't want put the same level of expectations on you.

In reality, in was a pretty selfless act of responsibility you should probably thank her for...

 

By giving her a ride on the baloney pony!

Does she make good money?

 

 

Kidding, but I have never seen an ex ever when I was single and not thrown the meat to them that very night.

 

 

She probably wanted you to bang it out, you didn't, and now she doesn't know what to do.

    • Its completely and utterly bootlicking at this point.  If you cannot acknowledge that using 3 picks on a rb with a torn acl in the 2nd round isnt a bad pick then you simply havent a clue about football.  Sorry man it is what it is.  And its insanely laughable you are trying to strawman this argument using other players.  And what fuging facts are you bringing that is justifing morgan using 3 goddamn picks on him?  I cannot wait to hear that.
    • Scourton's interviews are telling to me that it's only a matter of time before he could really put it together.  His limitation tool-wise that I see is in his bend, but at the leaner size, it looks like it wasn't a problem at Purdue.   He has a good moveset and reads leverages very well (vet level well).  Plays both the speed/quickness (great change of direction) and has a power game with good hand usage.  Moves from what I've seen in my digs: I'm seeing cross-chop, fake crossers into bull, bull rush, spin (his preferred move of choice), hand shuck.  He's not unrefined by any means.   If he can do 2 things---I'm feeling confident from seeing his interviews that we have a real dude on our hands: 1) Diversifying his moveset/how it's deployed - Over-reliant on some, but again, he has a growing palette.  And is already great with his hands so things are in-place to coach up. 2) Developing a counter moveset and starting to play the chess game with an OT - He's very good at reading leverage, knowing when to change things up during a play.  But NFL coaching should start to teach him how to really create a plan based on an opponent.  What to throw at a guy first, how to confuse with fakes/counters, etc.  How to play against these tackles as a game progresses.   Overall, he has some things that give me serious optimism: Run Defense, speed moves, power moves, he's super young and has the size/length.  When you really spell it all out, I think we should get excited.  Temper expectations from a stat sheet standpoint, but he should be able to go in and make an impact.
