Trying to play it cool...

"The One That Got Away" has suddenly returned to my life. We are trying to put our friendship back together but, within five minutes of seeing her for the first time in four years I have been reminded of how deeply I love this woman!

So here is my query...

Do I immediately attempt to try and rekindle the romance between the two of us, or do I just settle for being her friend?

The reason that I feel I have to do one or the other and not just wait and see what happens, is that there is a very real danger that she might move to London, or continue traveling around the world working on cruise ships.

Obviously I want her to do what she needs to do for her but, I do love her...

So do I leave it as just us being friends and let her go, or do I go for it so she and I may have the greatest love affair of all time?

Tell her you love her, but if she doesn't feel the same, you would be very happy if she remained your friend.......

You’ll only regret it if you don’t, no matter what the outcome.

Tell her. You'll know either way. It takes balls and it takes alot of courage. But, if you don't, you'll forever play the "what if" scenario in your head.

I would also say, tell her how you feel. You need to know for your own sanity, and if she has feelings for you, maybe you could work on a compromise? Good luck, OP

agree - tell her how you feel, or you many not get that opportunity - nothing to be gained from sitting on the fence but splinters - good luck

How do I think she feels?

Well, I don't know but, the responses here have certainly encouraged me to find out.

We're spending Thursday together so, maybe I'll take my opportunity then.

Scary though!

It is, because it's the unknown. Once you start talking, you'll know where you stand. Fingers crossed for you!

Indeed!

We saw each other for the first time on Saturday and it was amazing! We spend the whole evening talking, exchanging cuddles and annoying everyone around us by acting like idiots!

We did kiss when I took her back to her place but, we were both quite d*unk so, I'm not sure what (if anything) that means.

I think I'm gonna do it. Faint heart never won fair maiden after all.

It’s always scary telling someone how you feel but feel the fear and do it anyway.

We’re all rooting for you Phil!

Dude. Sort yourself out and tell her how you feel.

Tell her, and if it doesn’t work then cut her off. If it does work then good news.

You can’t live in limbo forever.

It depends if the fantasy is better than the reality and if she feels the same way you do. Unless you tell her you'll never know .

Does she know how you really feel ? I would definitely make sure she knows or you might regret it.

Then if she goes it’s simply not meant to be at least you’ll know. You can be still be friends , most mine are in different countries.

"Why didn't it happen the first time? "

Well, there's quite a large age gap and she went to university but also... we originally got together at the beginning of 2020 and obviously with her being at uni in Leeds, and covid and everything... I think it wasn't the right time for us but, now... look. I don't believe in fate but, the timing if her return to my life feels like more than a happy accident.

You could tell her but you risk not having her as a friend if she's not interested in more and she then feels awkward around you

Tell her. I've missed opportunities like that and then people have been gone forever. That's the worst feeling!

Don't tell her - nothing but anguish.

Tell her - it fucks up. It's shit. Aaaannddd...you now have a clearer road ahead.

Tell her - she doesn't give you a clear reply. Confusing, but you can move on.

Tell her - she wants you too. Happy days.

Don't tell her - maybe you enjoy the anguish. Or prefer its discomfort to the discomfort of decisiveness?

I realise that you are torn, but frankly it's a foolish question, don't waste your life opining for someone, do everything in your power to get her.

Above all find a way to tell her that you have feelings for her, if she rejects you, so be it. But at least you will not spend your life wondering what if.

Do you know the reason why she suddenly appeared Sunday after what seems no contact? She's done her Uni, done cruising, so why now? It's not a rule but things usually turn out by the way of 'an ex is an ex for a reason'. She may have had goals ahead of settling down before but do you know her plans now? I'd find these out before sinking anything long term in

Do you really want her or you just saying this.

If in love with her is it OK to flirt with others...

Well, when my knob fell off the local leprosy centre were amazing tbh Woody.

I still follow the advice they gave me, and now it only drops off when I'm inside a woman's magickal slurp curtains .
