text: is it a bad idea to get back with your sons father after have been split for almost 2 yrs? my sons dad and i split up back in july 2004. and we have been off and on since. but he keeps going back and forth being undeciding on what he wants to do. we havent ever gotten back together but, we have truly talked about it. our son was diagnosised with diabetes back in july 10, 2005 and that was about the last time we were hanging out and staying at his apartment with him and being a family again. but in september he started to feel different and said it wasnt me it was him. i have no idea and i dont want to hang on to something that isnt there. its not fair to me or my son and anyone that i meet in the future. move on, if he can't make up his mind there is no need for you to put your life on hold till he figures out what he wants, plus if you start dating again it might speed up his decision....good luck
