Well, it turns out, you can. I apologize for my disappearance over the last two months, but honestly, there hasn't been enough action to share.
Now I thought I would give you some advise on those that once were. You may have been tempted to dip your toes in the water again that may have given you enlightenment or even a rash. And let me tell you, you can dip your toe in it again. But, if the first time around, you received enlightenment, let me be the first to admit, it is never as good as the first time. Let the memory of the fling of the past stay in the past. Let your mind warp it into a fantasy of all shapes and sizes almost to the point that you don't even recognize yourself in the story. But, if you do this, do not think that if you have the opportunity to fling what you flung before, will be ever as good as the "memory" you made it to be.
I was pleasantly surprised when a vacation fling from 3 years ago popped up in Chile a few weeks back, to find out that while I was on that vacation, my alcohol goggles were not that thick. He was cute. He was still young, it seems that as you age in your thirties it takes so much longer for them to leave their twenties. But, it was nice to catch up. Now, remember, I am in no place to start anything, and really, I don't want to want to get too much information about a potential or past fling's life, and find myself wrapped up in their drama. Well when the fifth sentence out of a past fling's mouth after 3 years to you is, "well, I basically had the worst year of my life after I met you". You tend to lose all sorts of flutters you may have had in your stomach prior to the re-rendezvous.
When you are on vacation, do yourself a favor, either leave with the fling in your heart and the hope for potential. Or leave the fling in Belize with the memories you make them up to be! While reuniting can feel so good, it can also destroy any potential make believe stories you would like to have of him in the future.
