Can We Still Mend A Broken Relationship?

4 years but it has been damaged, it has been strained and it suddenly ended. We said so many mean things and we can no longer take our words back. We have been hurt so we fought back but we both know that we just expressed our feelings. We felt it is already hopeless to patch things up. After 4 months, we met again. We talked as if there is no more bitterness and it seems like everything is okay... as if nothing happened, confiding in each other and getting close again. What the fuck do these things mean; second chance? Can we still mend a broken relationship?

 I am the kind of believer that if it didn't work out the first time, why would it again? Usually that is true. Not because I don't believe in second chances or that there weren’t good things there but it just made me think if are we still in love or are we just lonely and wanting to figure out what will happen if we go back to what once felt comfortable?

It is easy to remember a lot of our sweet times together. I am sure that there were things that made me be with you again at one point and it really bothers me. Am I heading down a bad road again? Change? Maybe we already did but I'm afraid of a repeat of what happened before.

Is it the right time already to examine why and where it went wrong before we begin to try to pick the pieces up and put them back together? I believe we should not be just looking at the same reasons why we should give it another chance because that won't work. We both know that we ended things for some reason. But have we really grown and learned from our mistakes?  Second chance, are we really destined for that?
