Advice for sustaining a successful relationship

Question

I just got back together with my ex, whom I dated for 2 years. I really want us to stay together and I wanted to know if you all had some tips that you have used to reconciled and rekindle your love within your relationship. I dont want to break up this time. Right now, Im just keeping my distance a little, still enjoying my independence as I did when we broke up, Im not letting the little things bother me as they did before, and Im being very patient, Im not wearing my heart on my sleep and putting all of my emotions into this. Lastly, I havent slept with him yet since we've been together. Just want to get some other input on what I else I can do....I wanna take things slooooowww....

Answer 1

Just go with the flow...  don't make rules.  

Answer 2

I would say start out by talking with one another so that you guys both understand where one another is comming from,,,, ask each other questions like; why do we want to be back together?? why do we have feelings for each other??

Just simple questions like that ... it works!!! i have been through the same situation..

Answer 3

You are doing everything right.  Protect yourself.  The same things that caused problems the first time have not disappeared.  THey are just being hidden by both of you. /
