Is it normal that i am afraid of taking someone back?

I have dated a guy once, and he asked me out a second time. I accepted. However, I keep thinking that I'm the stupidest person ever. I truly love this guy, but some part of my brain keeps telling me that I never should have taken him back. That he's just going to hurt me again. Is it normal to feel this way?

    A person is your ex for a reason!

    I suspect that you're bored and lonely. In my humble opinion it's better to be alone that to be with the wrong person. If you're wasting time with the wrong person just because you feel it's better than being alone you might miss out on an opportunity with the right one when and if the right person comes along. Don't miss out on life because you're bored and afraid of being lonely.

    It's called doubts, it's very normal. I used to return with exes but then I realised that it caused me nothing but trouble. For the last five years I decided that an ex is an ex and that never should I return with an ex. But I'm not implying that nobody should return with their exes.

    Love is a strong emotion that is very difficult to understand, especially for me. I don't know what true love means and when the opportunity arises, i'll take it immediately; only to have it disappear just as quickly.

    If i were you, i would probably be in the same situation, going back to something i know and am comfortable with (regardless of the past and the consequences of which). Yet at the same time, i have become abstinent towards any kind of companionship for years now because it sucks to have your heart broken...

    It is easier to be alone, less drama and bullshit! Yet at the same time, it does in fact, suck.
