Do I ignore what the world thinks and do what my heart says?

A male United States age 36-40, anonymous writes:

I recently ran into my ex. We hit it off, and we started hangin out again. I strongly believe that she is an amazing person, but my family and friends think otherwise because we had a rough going of separate ways. The world truly is against us working out, but I feel as though she is the half that makes me whole.

Do I ignore what the world thinks and do what my heart says?

Sweet-thing agony auntWell, what was it about your relationship that made it fail and what has changed that you think will make it work this time? Sometimes love does not conquer all. You have to be objective if she is truly wrong for you, regardless of how much you want her to be "the one". On the other hand, if she's changed, or you've changed and the two of you truly want to try it again, forget everyone else and follow your heart. It may just work out this time around! They'll eventually warm up to the idea once they see it for themselves. And if it falls apart again, don't be a fool a 3rd time. Let her go once and for all and move on with your life.

sexi agony auntHi, at a time like this you really cant see what you need to. If you really love this girl & she feels the same for you then dont worry about anyone. Fair enough your'll have had a tough time but everyone deserves a second chance.My bf and i had the exact same problem. Everyone was against, but the truth is that he makes me so happy and that is all that matters.If she makes you happy then why worry about everyone else? Everyone should just be happy that you are happy and she is the one that makes you happy. Dont give up on her, at some point people are bound to accept yours'll relationship.

Good luck, let me know what has happened.

Oblivia agony auntI think you must follow your own heart, what do you really want? If it feels right now for both of you, then give it a try. You survived last time and will survive again. And you seem to have good, caring family and friends, I agree with Tellulah, they are probably only caring about you not getting hurt again. They will understand, they just want you to be happy. Just take it slow and take care of your feelings.

I once actually had my heart broken twice by the same man and yes, it hurts a lot both times, but still, I don't regret trying out a second round because otherwise I would have kept thinking what if...? And, no, it didn't hurt me more the second time.

Good luck to you!

How do you know that it is going to work out this time? I say move on. I think that seeing her again just brought up your feelings for her again, that's all. Find someone who you haven't been with before.

TELLULAH agony auntHi

They will be scared of seeing you get hurt that's all.

If you do decide to do this, tell your family you are taking it slow to see how things pan out.

There must be something there, otherwise there would be no attraction. And anyway you are an adult so it's your life and up to you.

Hope it works out this time, if you go ahead I mean.
