Episode Details

What do you do when someone who hurt you tries to come back around?This episode is not about marriage. Marriage is a different covenant, a different commitment, and a different agreement before God. This conversation is about dating, talking, situationships, and relationships that never reached that level.In Episode 350, MCM breaks down the question many people search when an old person returns:Should I take them back?But before you answer that with emotion, nostalgia, attraction, chemistry, loneliness, or hope, there are 10 questions you need to ask yourself honestly.Did they take accountability?Did the original problem actually change?Are they coming back with remorse, or just appetite?Are they looking for the old agreement?Are you their final choice, or just their comfort zone?And if they leave again, will the second ending cost you more than the first one did?This episode also gets into a deeper question:Do you really love this person, or do you love what they represent?Sometimes what people call love is really access, attraction, status, nostalgia, fear, religion, culture, money, chemistry, or the feeling of finally being chosen by someone who once rejected them.Before you let someone return, you have to understand this:Yesterday’s access is not today’s access.A person who damaged trust does not get to complain about the security system.This is a direct, honest, and necessary conversation for anyone wondering whether an old relationship deserves a new chance.
