Dating your EX is one of the easient things to do! First of all, she already knows you so wala ng pa-cute na kailangan. As long as she's unattached as of the moment and has no current serious suitors, just give her a text or call asking if she's free for coffee or lunch. If she says yes, then solve na lahat! Better yet, if you can arrange an "accidental meeting" para dehins obvious at the start na you want to see her again, the better. Bump into her at work or at a gimik or something. Small talk shouldn't be a problem once you "meet" her

he he he, i second the motion of sir idol_julio. "accidental meetings" are okay, then try to ask her out. if she's okay for it, then no problem

Don't date your ex! NO! NO! NO! NEVER! Don't fixate, don't get obsessed with your ex.
Think of it this way...When you break your Acera crankset, do you go out and buy Acera cranks again? No! You upgrade to Deore at least, maybe even LX/XT!
Date someone else, preferably someone hotter/sexier/more attractive than your ex. Do it even if just for the experience. You'll immediately become more desirable in everyone's eyes -- including your ex!

Especially if you had some unfinished business when you were still going out. Hehe Just make sure both of you are single and try not to fall in love again if you're not sure what you want to happen... Make things clear from the start what your plans are so neither of you get hurt. Regarding the Acera-Deore comparison... What if your ex was an XTR already and you happend to switch to an X.0? It's not a downgrade if you want to go XTR again

Hehe Just make sure both of you are single and try not to fall in love again if you're not sure what you want to happen... Make things clear from the start what your plans are so neither of you get hurt. Let me qualify my statement: IF you just want to hang out with the ex as a friend or FuBu that's fine. BUT if you are specifically looking for a "date" with romantic aspirations, I would advise against it. Perhaps I was reading too much into the question, but from duldog's post I assumed it was the latter. Well I would go with a brand-spankin' NEW XTR, not the old worn out one Heck, I'd keep the X.0 AND build a new bike with XTR. I would keep a Dura Ace road bike around too, just for kicks. Of course then my mind would be preoccupied with fantasies of riding two bikes at the same time, but that's the sort of passion that makes life worth living. ;D

If you're trying to get ''unattached'' then why date your EX? Why date anyone for that matter? It beats the purpose of going out on a date. Its like fishing without hoping to catch any, not even a snag. Its like having dinner or lunch with your sister or mother... that's it, a family affair not an affair to remember. Unless of course I have other intentions for seeing my EX again like asking for my stuff back (which she took from my apartment ), claiming a severance ''bang'' or whatever. I'd probably avoid her and just hope that a chance meeting will just be left to chance. Especially knowing that I probably ripped her heart out from her ribs and showed it to her while it slowly stopped beating. My advise is, if you intend to go out fishing or dating for that matter. Go out and get youself a big one! There's an OCEAN out there... it's either you hook one yourself or someone else snags you... its bound to happen.

dating an "EX" most of the time is like simply making a "bootie call", an easy way of getting a "shag ".and lets not forget that it always takes 2 to tango.for me,basing from my own experience(ayan ha!) a couple of reasons why i date/dated an "EX", 1. EASY SHAG,no need for talking isht anymore. 2. i miss her so much and i still have feelings for her which in turn goes back to shagging most of the time.

Acera is good because it's low-maintenance and you can ride it hard w/o worrying about keeping it shiny. Just lube it up and go. Ride hard, my friends!

It seems you are still attached to an "acera" and you want to go back to an "XTR." The way I see it, you are trying to play safe... You want to make sure your EX still likes you enough and get back into a relationship with you without letting go of your current GF first. I feel this is the cowardly way to go about it. If you reall want your EX back, break-up with your acera level GF first then make your move on your EX. Para kang namamangka sa dalawang ilog... If any of those two grils find out about your plans, you'll wind up with nothing. No Acera and definitely no XTR... Just you and your pader

yeah i think it is the obligation of the guy to always be clear on his intentions, as it is us who's usually expected to make the move. if you intend to court her, then by all means do so and make it known so that she would know how to respond appropriately. Courtship does not mean winning someone over, it means finding out together if you are meant for each other. A courtship's success is finding the right path for each of you, not necesarrily getting together.
Besides, you don't need to be a 'couple' to enjoy a fine dinner or walk in the park, watch theater etc (i think there are some things that us guys can do only with a girl, such as eating at a fancy restaurant) And there's nothing wrong with that as long as it is clear what your intentions are. Kung friends, friends lang.
It's quite unfair then to a lady when you don't make your intentions clear and expect her to simply pick up that you are courting etc, and then we as guys interpret her sweet nothings as signs of her liking us, when infact she's simply innocently enjoying our company.
in life, as in mt biking, you have to decide your line of attack and commit to it, otherwise, you're headed for a nasty crash.
peace

Marcs, eto nabasa ko lang sa balat ng kendi gaya ni Tolits , never been kissed nor touched pako eh Pero, if you make your intentions clear to court a gerl, garantisado magpapakipot effect pa yun. Ang feeling ng bruha you have to work hard para makuha ang matamis nyang.....oo. Gagastos ka pa sa gas , dinner, bribes este gifts pala Hard to get kunyari. Syempre thats how they were brought up. Dalagang pinay
Mas maganda daw, sabi ng balat ng kendi ni Tolits, ang indirect approach Upang malaman yung indirect approach na yun, bumili muna kayo ng kendi
