Click hereDespite all of our time together, it was almost like a first date, but we soon fell into our old routines. Although nothing was said, I wasn't dating anyone else, and I was pretty sure that Leigh wasn't either.
It was time for a decision.
"Leigh, I'd like us to be exclusive. I know we've pretty much been exclusive, so if you'd like, I'd like you to move back in."
She nearly jumped out of her seat before I held up my hand.
"I want to be very clear. This is a second chance. There won't be a third. All that I ask, besides fidelity, of course, is honesty.
"If your feelings change in any way . . ."
"They won't!"
"I think you would have said that before."
She looked down.
"If your feelings change, talk to me. Depending on the situation, it doesn't have to be the end of us, but only if we talk about it. Do you understand?"
"Yes, Jack, I do."
This was the moment of truth.
"When do you think you can move back in?"
"Is this weekend too soon?" she said with a grin that seemed like it would split her face, and she did.
I won't say there were no more issues. What relationship doesn't have issues? We talked about them. It turned out that I had some of my own. Hey, I never said that I was perfect.
Will it last? Who knows, but I've been walking a little slower past jewelry stores lately.

oldtwitabout 1 year agoWhat a good story, so nearly real, must have happened to loads of couples, nicely written, nice characters ( all of them for a change ) great job
iammweaselover 1 year agoDecent story. And the, getting back together works as he did leave her for awhile. While we may not have seen what she went through, it seems clear she did suffer.
THe fun part if reading the comments about how these dudes wouldnt put up with it and what a wuss he was, and yet in their own life they'd have cried and begged their woman not to leave them for her boss. Literally. Sorry kids but most marriages dont die a cheaters death, no matter how much pathetic chest beating you do.
Drgwngover 2 years agoHooray, another CONFUSED male Mc. My favorite word, except maybe when the man is so CONFUSEDthat he cannot talk,cannot get words out, or cannot think. This is so common , it is a wonder anything gets done in the real workplace. Very weak. Wimpy and hopeless
nixroxover 2 years ago3 for this wimp RAAC.
She was caught cheating and it was gradual over a period of time. Even though they had not done the deed YET, it was emotional cheating. It was a date that would have eventually been consummated, if she had not been caught at the concert. He would need a tight leash on her for a very long time - GPS monitoring, surveillance recorders/videos (office, home, car) - and there may never be the trust they once shared. He would have to seriously consider the phrase - 'better off with or without her'.
goodshoes2over 2 years agoTough to rate. 3 stars, BUT, in my personal life, I would never taken her back, PERIOD. Only because it happened to me in my late teens years (no marriage, serious dating). I did take her back and she did it again. Then it was over. So, one strike and you are out. Otherwise, interesting, well written story.
