Hi BA: read what Bets has written. Then read it again. And again. It's the timing. We are usually our most attractive when we start dating someone new. My daughter suddenly wanted her old boyfriend back the second she sensed he was finally moving on. Marianne's key words "now that you are dating someone else" - yep - that's it. That is what has caused her to change her mind. The competition. The fear of losing you. She didn't want you but doesn't want anyone else to have you either. I could never get past the reason for the breakup - you were too nice? Does that mean she wants a bad boy? Or that her self esteem won't allow her to be with a good guy. At any rate - I'd say that ship has sailed! But Sarah is a worry too. Don't pin all your hopes & dreams on her. It is Always fantastic in the beginning, especially when you have both built up the anticipation of the potential of a relationship together. There would be many obstacles to overcome. Right now it's a pipe dream. I've seen people move far, leave jobs, homes & children for "the one" who somehow isn't quite so perfect 6 months later as those endorphins start fading. Enjoy getting to know her better but keep your feet on the ground! We are all rooting for you but there are lots of options on the table. How about the others.
