mmm second chances... i believe 2nd chances might not be for everyone or every situation, it really depends on how bad the damage is, or has been done. it also depends on how much you care and how much you're willing to go through for this person.
the boyfriend i have now, i gave him several chances, he effed up pretty bad too. he said he wanted to be with me, then it ended up that he ending up going for my friend. he was fooling around with both of us too, when we both would question him about it, he would say all he did was kiss us goodnight, but when we spoke to eachother, we found out the real story behind all the lies he's been telling us. to be honest 99% of all the guys out there would cheat if they thought they could get away with it. i treated him very well also, i bought him a rose and bought it to his door, i randomly bought him a CD that i knew he'd like. and he did nothing for me. maybe i'm just a hopeless romantic. but he hurt me bad, he ended up getting with my friend and breaking my heart, he said "i like you, but i don't want to go out with you" yet his actions before proved otherwise. so they dated, and she cheated on him, he was hurt, then he comes back to me and apologizes for hurting me and says he knows exactly how i feel. I KNOW a lot of people wouldn't have taken him back, to be honest, i'm not quite sure why i did, i can admit i was whipped at first, but when he came back, it was totally in my hands. and i took him back. i always thought if it was meant to be, he'd choose me over her, but he didn't. well i guess i took him back because he learned his lesson... and i felt so strongly for him that if i got hurt again, then i would know it'd be my fault now, because it was my choice to take him back.
i went through some hanous BS and i ended up with him. in truth 2nd chances are only if you're willing to put the effort into it, and if you truly believe it'll be worth it at the end.
when i sit back and think of everything i went through, i just hope he could make up for everything. so it's also about trust.
