I was actually wanting it to be different. NOTHING like it was before

I still have feelings, we do "hang" out around other friends, but I just don't think he has changed any. Or I could just be hanging on to the old memories.

another 10 years from now,my first gf from highschool will still hate me....

and i thought we had something special

I've NEVER had a FIRST BOYFRIEND??????????


Let alone 23 years ago..... lol

There are pros and cons....i think you have a connection already, you have familiarity. On the other side I believe there is truth to that saying "you can't go back"

young and dumb.

you've had time to change into a completely different person making it a whole new experience. :D

Hummmm well my first boyfriend was in Middle School did not have one in High School would I date him now if I ran into him hummmmmmmmmmmmmm would you date one that looked like Luis (Romeo) I rest my case hehehe

But we went to the same High School and did see him a few years later...still was

I would go for it

I don't see any harm in dating someone that you once dated many years ago. People can change and mature over time.

Though I agree that it has been many, many years and we have probably changed, there are several factors.

1) We have changed and became different people so there really is no reason for trying this again.
2) I really don't believe in going backwards and even though it has been 23 years, it is still backwards.

Now had we not dated and only been friends, then it would be a different story.

So, with this being said, I have decided it is not a good idea.

Thanks to all for your input.

Haven't you always wondered "what if?"

No not really. Is that sad????

That PROBABLY makes it much better! It's not "sloppy seconds" but a genuinely new experience!

You may be correct, but I just don't think I want to go down memory lane...It wasn't a very good experience the first time

Then just say 'no' and don't look back...
Listen to your gut instinct!
