Give It Another Try?
Give It Another Try? Once again I received an email from someone I went out with once. We had a fairly pleasant time out...coffee, conversation, but there was really no chemistry. We culminated the encounter with nothing more than a chaste kiss and didn't keep in contact afterwards. He is now asking if I'd like to give it another go. It seems he's been in a relationship since we were together that didn't work out....and thought he'd try me again. It seems to happen every now and then. Men I dated casually or men I'd had sex with once or twice and we agreeably parted ways because we realized it wasn't really what we were both interested in (or a think we agreed). At a later date, can be months to years, I get an email or a IM (often I no longer recognize the screen name). Suggesting we get together again. And as with today's email they had been involved with another woman and now were looking for companionship again. There's two ways of looking at this I guess. Either I was someone they could never get me off their minds or they think even though we didn't really hit it off that I'm always available for a good time and stimulating conversation. Very occasionally I do go out with them again (and even may have sex) before I remember why we didn't continue seeing each other in the first place. Should you give someone a second chance? Maybe your first impression wasn't the right one. Or are your first instincts always correct? Something to ponder. |

No chemistry is no chemistry to me, but I have heard of people who have evolved to places where they are more compatible. I think it's up to the individual cases.

I have been on those Second Chance dates. It is true that they ended for a reason the first time. But after time, are we ALL the same we were in the past? If it was not a BAD breakup or terrible mistake to begin with the first time, I am more than happy to at least enjoy some time with the person. Hell, most of the people I know here are people I have never been intimate with, so why not explore and old romp? If the relationship did not last, but the sex was good, no harm no foul if both parties knows whats going on from the get go. So I say yea, go for it. WQe are not who we used to be, age and wisdom changes that. And if it's all about the sex, so be it Enjoy what life throws you

I guess it's all about trusting your instincts. I have pursued some women and got a different vibe. Should have stopped and let things cool. Other times, I thought that but ended up having a lot of fun. They can ask you, and you have to decide what you want to do. Maybe the vibe you got from him warrants a 2nd chance, maybe it doesn't. Maybe the timing wasn't the best and now it can be better. Maybe you need to lay things out first and see what happens. Keep us up to date on how this plays out.

I don't think people are necessarily playing games by going out once and not wanting to pursue anything more. You can have a pleasant time with someone, but if you're just not feeling it you know nothing will development. Why pretend it will? Doing that would be leading someone on....you want someone to fake it? Better off looking at it as taking the chance to meet someone...if it works out in some way good...if not..oh well....go on to the next. At least you made an effort...took a risk.
