So...my 8th grade boyfriend who I haven't spoken to in three years randomly messaged me on Facebook last night. He wasn't even on my friends list. He just popped up in my messages. He wants to hang out on Sunday and said that he wish we never broke up and wants to start over again. Since I've never had a true, genuine relationship before, I don't know what to do. I really like him all over again. What should we do starting Sunday?
Additional info, added Friday August 22 2014, 10:59 am: Yes, it was healthy. We broke up in 8th grade because he moved too far away and I wasn't mature enough to handle a long distance relationship. But he moved closer so we can see each other now.. Want to answer more questions in the Relationships category?

People can really change in 3 years. Because you've already dated him, you already like him, are already comfortable with him, and already trust him. This is great, but it could be dangerous. If you didn't date him for more than a few months, you may not have gotten to know him too well either. Even if you talked for hours every day, it can take awhile to truly get to know what someone is like and how they'll treat you in a relationship over time. Try to figure out his intentions. Why does he want to see you all of a sudden? Did he just break up with someone? Does he just want to mess around? Has he been thinking about you and miss you? Straight up asking him might not get you the whole truth. His intentions could be good and unselfish, but be mindful that they might not be. My intent is not to discourage you. This is something to be happy about and I'd definitely see where things go with him. Just remember to be careful not to jump in too fast. Good luck, I hope it works out for you!! :) [ sizzlinmandolin's advice column | Ask sizzlinmandolin A Question ]

If you got a long and were truly happy during the relationship; I would say see how it goes. If it was an un-healthy relationship where you were fighting all the time and you we're un-happy you have already had time to heal and I wouldn't open an old wound... Good luck! :) [ Sami143's advice column | Ask Sami143 A Question ]
