A beautiful story indeed, besides your not getting anywhere online and from where I am sitting you are still in love with her. I just started seeing my ex after 8 years apart and my feelings stayed the same. I feel that if fate is giving you a second chance then you have to take it.

I have to say that age is not of any importance when two people are adults. I do however feel that at some point the things you don't have in common could cause some conflict. However you never know who is right for you until you give it a try. So much luck with him and hopefully you won't need it.

It's a really long story the, bottom line is a family member of mine broke us up out of jealousy. I was too young for the type of relationship he wanted.

YES, I am still in love with my ex boy friend I lost 8 years ago, I saw him for the first time one week ago and my feelings haven't changed.

The reason this is on my mind is cause a couple months ago I found an ex online, I guess my main reason for contacting him was to see was he alive and well. I had already had in my mind that he was happily married with children. I sent him a email via myspace to say hello and that was it, in his reply he leaves his number. I called and we talked about old times and how life was now, we are both single with no children. We had wanted to meet up then but with me working long hours this time of year it seemed to not be happening. So last week I went on a date with a guy I met online and let's just say it was like watching paint dry, there were no sparks what so ever. After departing and feeling so angry about the commute, my ex sends a txt msg. I happend to be close by and we went for drinks. After that we went back to his place to talk and watch movies. This was the first time I had seen this man in 8 years, but my feelings for him were the same. The moment I laid eyes on him I knew I had to get him back. At this point I am very confused cause so much time had passed and perhaps we won't get back together. I was 16 when we met and he was 20, now that we are grown up I should be well over him right? Here is where I need the advice, do I tell him how I feel to avoid losing him again or stay friendly in hopes he makes a move? either way I don't want to play any games but at the same time unsure of how to approach the situation.
