hmmm....

forgiveness....

Let's see he crapped all over you for a few years, grew up, then ran into you somewhere recently and saw that you've turned into a stone cold fox, went home with a twitch in his trousers & thought about what a jerk he was to you and decided to repent???

Is that the gist here?.... we are all weak where love interests are concerned. If I were you I would think about his real true character - never forget it - give him an inch to see if his soul has matured into a fuller, kinder entity, while keeping your emotional distance. Who's to say that once he finally gotcha he wouldn't revert to his former ****** treatment. It will take a little time and willingness (which you are already demonstrating by even considering it) but with time you'll be able to tell if he's jerk or not, but how much time ya wanna waste on the snappa head anyway?

The other thought to consider is - do you really want him or are you thinking ya just want him cuz ya couldn't have him before - forbidden fruit syndrome and all? - It's really not any sweeter - trust me.

Good luck to you. Truly.

....oops I shoulda kept reading more. He's a dudd. Dump him. He's doing EXACTLY the same thing he did to you in high school - only subtler. He's a narcissistic ahole. Don't bother we him. If he texts you again politely tell him that you are not interested in an Emotional Terrorist & go piss up a rope.
