we dated, and we had a great time together, everone said we were the perfect couple, my parents LOVED him, but we didn't feel ready so we broke it off after only a month and a half. now 5 months later, we still have feelings and we still get together and hang out we're still really close, and a lot of the time when we are together i wonder why we don't just get back together, b/c we both feel the same about each other, but we don't want to rush back into things and get hurt again. Timing is really hard for us right now. I'm so confused. what to i do????

You need to listen to your heart but remember not to ignore your common sense.
If what you both want is to take it slower this time, do just that. Take it slow. Keep the lines of communication open. Be honest with each other at all times.
You need to keep in mind of your ages as well. Make sure know what the statitory rape laws are in your area because you don't want to get him into trouble. You're 17, still not legally and adult and he's 20, clearly a legal adult. Just be careful ok.
Make sure that you two are clear on what it is you both want. I mean be very clear. Write it down if you have to. Misscommunication at this time would be harmful at this point.
Just make sure you both are getting back together for all the right reasons and not all the wrong ones.
I hope this has helped you some. Best of luck to you both.

Listen your 17 not 27 - don't get into any serious relationship - you have your whole lifetime for stuff like that. Enjoy your life...go out with friends and don't get tied down to one guy.
I was in my first serious relationship when I was 27 and got married when I was 28. I know you didn't say anything about marriage, but once you get into that serious of a relationship...what next? Marriage.
I say, be friends, and just friends.
