| Would you get back with your first love? Posted: 1/14/2005 7:37:58 PM | Here is an interesting question for you all....
I was speaking a friend earlier; I informed him that if my ex asked me back, after all the crap he put me through, I would run to him in a heart beat, and not think twice about it, and I stated how pathetic and sad it was, but yet very true. He told me, that he felt the same way, even though he's ex and him have been over for 6 months now. He also told me he's friends would do the same thing. That one of his friends ran into his first "love" at a wedding years and years after they had parted, and at that time was engaged, and had to tell his fiance that he needed time to think, because he wasnt sure what he wanted. And another friend stated the same thing, if his first "love" from 10 years ago asked him back, he would give it another try. Soooooo, my question for you...
Would you get back with your first love, be willing to give it another try if they came back to you, whether you are single or not????? | |

| Would you get back with your first love? Posted: 1/14/2005 8:02:15 PM | It would depend.. what you call first love... I have loved but for the wrong reasons..
However the girl I really felt love for?? Most defiantly!!!
I think that people can come together but it has been at the wrong time in their lives... There are lessons to be learnt and thats were I am know, Plus I am a die hard romantic =) | |

my first love was way back in 8th grade. she was a great girl. just wasn't smart enough to not break her heart.
she's still one of my best friends to this day. but we have changed far too much over the years to ever date again. | |

| Would you get back with your first love? Posted: 1/14/2005 10:25:29 PM | yA knoW - If it's first love or any love " iF someone did " I don't think it wouldn't last no matter how much they tried , beCause One of them would be haunted by the pass!
Love is about being whole, two Hearts beating as one with no Guards , two souls completely sharing one begining functioning as one SouL.
There's no way that can exist in that relationship , the thoughts of the pass will haunt one of them.

Mostly I agree. I mean, it may be possible for two people to somehow make it work if both had learned all of life's hard lessons and they managed to get back together and re-discover or re-ignite their passion and love for one another or whatever.. but I dunno.. guess it depends how the romance ended before - was it on a good or bad note, and if bad.. how bad? | |

| Would you get back with your first love? Posted: 1/14/2005 10:50:42 PM | I did it.
We dated in high school, split up near graduation, went to different universities, lost touch. About 8 years later, I stumbled across a mutual friend who thought she'd pass on my e-mail to the ex. Things happened... despite her being in a LTR.
Anyhow, the short version is: people change. Or memory is extremely faulty. Either way, it did not work out like something in a romantic movie. Certain aspects were super-fantastic, but that was basically our only compatibility. I do miss that aspect, though... | |

| Would you get back with your first love? Posted: 1/15/2005 2:43:35 AM | Hello,
I must agree with the guy that said " It depends on what you consider first love ". My first love was a beautifull girl that beat the sh*t out of me in pre-school. We were friends until 3rd grade when I pushed her down on the playground for kissing me. What do you know, we fell in love that day. We were "boyfriend & girlfriend" untill 5th grade when she moved away to be the "bat girl" for the Boston Redsox. Naturally this broke my little heart, and yes, I consider her( even at that age ) to be my first love. Would I go back to her? I guess after all this time( I'm 25 now ) it would be more like meeting her all over, but if I could at least see her again, yes I would try to be with her again. Even through all of the relationships I've been through in my life, she has never left my mind or my heart.
Hell, maybe by chance she would read this some day. Her name is Jill Garb, we went to Stanford Elemetary School together in Las Vegas, Nevada. The problem is the chances of something like that actually happening. Though it would be amazing, it's just to slim to linger on, but hey, sh*t happens. Right?
So I guess my answer would be yes, definately. | |

| Would you get back with your first love? Posted: 1/15/2005 6:06:31 AM | NOPE We were the most perfect couple in the world, then he went off to college, and the relationship started to hit some bumpy roads, then I walked in on him f*cking another girl.. Yeah it ended that day.. Even though I love him today and we managed to become great friends after this (it took about 2 years till we could be friends) if we were ever to get back together the butt of every argument would be about when i walked in on him... I Forgave him for what he did to me but I will never forget and for that reason we could never get back together. | |

| Would you get back with your first love? Posted: 1/15/2005 6:50:52 AM | | I was infact recently contacted by my first love and after 13 years of us not seeing each other. We met in our teens and had a six year relationship and then we broke up for various reasons. After the final break up though, it was still hard for the both of us to let go of one another, things finally ended when I moved away. 13 years later, he reappears, he found me through a friends website. Says he's always thought about me, he still cares about me, etc, etc. I'd go back in a heartbeat. I'm unsure as to what will happen next, but for now we are mailing and catching up basically. Unsure as to whether he's interested in 'rekindling' or if he's just looking to be friends ?? | |

| Would you get back with your first love? Posted: 10/15/2008 6:53:01 PM | | OP, I ask myself that question every now and again. Heck, I've even had dreams about it, and honestly, a very vocal but tiny part of me is screaming "yes". I don't think that I would do it, though, because we'd end up with the same problems we had that led to our breakup. Still, and I've been looking for a long time, no-one's really measured up to her. She stayed. The others ran. | |

Yep, I would do it in a heartbeat, given an opportunity. I messed that one up, big time. Sometimes I have felt like "dating karma" has followed me for many years. Many regrets since then, but since I know it won't happen, I need to move on. | |

| Would you get back with your first love? Posted: 10/15/2008 8:08:02 PM | That would never happen for me. I would have considered it up until about a year ago when I found out how much of an ass he is.But as of now? He can justify cheating on a gf of 3 years[not me] by saying "Im not married",I can tell him to go slit his wrists and have absolutely no feelings left for him. | |

| Would you get back with your first love? Posted: 10/15/2008 8:57:02 PM | | I wouldn't get back together with my first love, period. I broke up with him because he wasn't being the responsible adult I wanted to date. He was being irresponsible and selfish in regards to his daughter, in ways I couldn't support by being with someone who was behaving as he was. I haven't seen him mature greatly in that regard; so no, all the issues that caused me to break up with him in the first place are still very much issues, in addition to the distance. There's no way. | |

| Would you get back with your first love? Posted: 10/16/2008 1:02:52 AM | | I probably would, he was a great guy! However, I know that we could never be together again. We still talk once in awhile, that is good enough:) | |
