As time went by and after several weekends, I decided to move up to her where I got a flat and she moved in.
Nearing the end of 2007, we broke up due to an argument, and she had gotten pregnant, which was not planned and she wanted to move away, which I followed. We agreed to give our relationship another go once we had settled in our new house.
Our relationship was going great until the summer of 2009 where we had drifted apart due to my unemployment. She has now moved back to where we had gotten a flat, living with her parents.
Last summer (2010), my ex had gotten back in contact with her ex (before me), which she has a past with and she was planning on getting back with him, but due to something he had said, she's no longer speaking to him.
Last Monday, My ex and my daughter came over to spend new years with me, and they will be leaving next Tuesday.
During the course of their stay, my ex and I have gotten close. We've been acting like couple and family. But when I asked her if this thing between us is just for the time she's down, she replied saying that she thinks that's best because she doesn't want to ruin the friendship that we have. She had also said that who knows what will happen in the future.
After that conversation, we have continued to carry on the way we were, like a couple.
She wants to concentrate on bringing up our daughter and I think she's afraid that we may not work again.
I think we both genuinely love each other, and I also think that this time it will work as I won't be sitting at home all day as I'm now back in employment.
The reason why I've written my story on here is before she goes back to her parents, I was going to ask if she wants to give our relationship another go, but tak it slow, and I wanted some advice on whether I should do this or if this will spoil any feelings we have left.
