After some no contact I am back with my ex and we are both happy. That being said, we have both agreed to TAKE IT SLOWWWW. Was wondering if anybody had any good tips/advise on what to do/not do at this begining stage of the "2nd chance'.

just be true to yourself and keep communication open

don't expect things to go back to the way they were. Things will be different, albeit good, just different.

i agree with all the above and happy for you!

I wish you much luck. Communication is more important than anything. Don't hold anything back and make sure you are talking about everything that has happened often to make sure you cover everything and there aren't things left unsaid. I hope this has a happy ending :)

Talk & keep talking.
Also i would maybe suggest that if there is anything either of you needs to get off your chest or ask the other person then do it now & bury it!
Try & learn from things you both did wrong before, but without playing the blame game.
And don't take each other for granted.

I wish you all the very best ranger772. Really hope it works out for ya.

take it slow? i wouldn't. i would demand that both be completely in with both feet. it is the only way to fly.

any halfheartedness and i would be out of there.

in life, we are either in or out. go for the gusto, bro.
