Confused about him., Ex-boyfriend, feelings Options

[Lame-o]

My ex-boyfriend was in an accident on Boxing day (the day after Christmas), it has brought up some feelings we both thought were gone.

The reason we split up was because the relationship was moving along too fast.

We both know that right now is not the best time for a relationship because of the accident. (His mum was killed)

But to know I could have lost him forever :(
Thank god I didn't.

Opinions?

I'm sorry to hear about the accident.

Naturally you'd still have feelings for him if you parted on good terms. I think such an event would bring those feelings to the surface - but don't act on them yet.

Your ex will need time and room to grieve, so make sure you support him as a friend. As time goes by, I'm sure both of you will come to a decision about your relationship.

I am really sorry about his mom and I hope he isn't too terribly injured.

I would at least try to stay in the friend zone. If you two still feel the same way when emotions aren't running so high go for it.

I think you're just in that elated stage in which you hypothesize that you could have lost him, but you didn't and you're thankful of that, but he may or may not be the best choice for a relationship again. I don't know how you would rationalize that you split-up because you were going too fast. That makes absolutely no sense to me, but however you choose it.

Try to be careful next time. But right now, don't push your feelings onto him. *That* would be going too fast, and it'd make you look insensitive toward his situation right now.
