friends with benefits could turn into...something more serious?

Tande, I've been in a similar situation. I have to be honest and say that I do not think it will work out. After a first break up, it is very difficult and unadvisable to get back together with the person. There will be so many more problems with the person and while it may feel great being with someone familiar, ultimately, both parties will end up getting more and more hurt.

This is exactly what happened to me in high school. My ex-girlfriend and I got dated and got back-together a total of 3 times and each time, things got worse and worse. In the end, none of it was really worth it and she told me she regretted getting involved with me. The whole ordeal made me feel like shit but its relationships and dating is a learning process.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
