Life is WAY too short to not take chances and risks once in a while. Why sit around wondering what could've been, what would've been and what should've been, when you can answer all of those questions and then some by being honest and telling a boy how you really feel about him?

However, you can't let it stop you from ever loving the boy you had a great relationship with again. Time as helped heal you and maybe it's time to give it another try. If this boy is as wonderful as you said (I'm sure he is) then he will find a way to try and understand where you are coming from. "It's better to have said something than to have said nothing at all" You will have far more regrets if you don't tell him how you really feel and why you broke up with him.
