3 months post break up and he apologizes

[Belle]

I'm a little stunned. I had written this guy off as an unaccountable narcissist. I knew one once, and he wouldn't apologize if his life depended on it.

 

This guy seems to sincerely understand that he screwed up. And he has consistently been making an effort to try to get back together. I just don't know that I can trust him.

 

On the other hand, he's been persistent in contacting me longer than we were even together. And when we broke up, he wasn't malicious or ugly. But he was unbelievably immature and tried to make me jealous.

 

He wants to try a "friendship." If I let him back in as a friend, he couldn't hurt me like he did before. It would be on my terms, and I get that he's trying to be patient unlike he was in our short relationship. However, if I keep going, he can't hurt me at all. I don't really know what to do.

Really as you said. If you feel you can trust him, go for it. Honestly if he's been apologizing longer than you even went out, I'd say he's worth giving a second chance, since he obviously cares.

 

Your call.

Tread carefully.

Let him in as a friend, then tell him about some guy you like and watch how fast he turns into mr. immature.
