That he's not that great and the other guy was probably the better option.

Did you break things off with the other bloke then? Or can it be revived?

We've talked and he's open to seeing me again, but unfortunately now I've given him a reason to doubt me and things aren't necessarily going to be as they were before.

Did you tell him you chose the other bloke? If not I wouldn't worry

No, I've never mentioned any other blokes to him. But either way, I wouldn't blame him if he lost interest in me. Not everyone gives second chances and excuses bad behavior the way I do.

I'm sure online dating would present you with other opportunities but do you really want to start from scratch in getting to know someone all over?

If not he's a great shout

What do you have to lose to reach out and test the water? I think what you learned on this one is that a bird in hand is worth two in the bush. You had a known commodity, yet you risked it to see what the two in the bush were like. For most people, shopping for options will often leave us empty handed.

Guy from the past was a fantasy of mine. He did end up fulfilling part of it during the time we spent together, so yay, I guess. But he doesn't deserve to be on the pedestal that I put him on. I thought he was special and he is in some ways, but unfortunately he's not the right guy for me.

I'm talking about the prior guy that you had already went on a couple of dates with. Not this guy you went back into the future for to see if there was anything there.
