<human>: Hi people of Reddit, I recently just got back into a relationship with my ex, we were broken up for over a year and we dated for 4 years before we broke up. During that year period we stayed friends, but we were also dating other people. Our break up was amicable and we both agreed we should break up, so no bad blood between us. It seemed that both of us had bad experiences with the new dating scene, and we ended up talking and hanging out a lot more. To the point that we started a FWB relationship.

I realized sometime within a month that I had feelings for him again so I confronted him, and he felt the same way as well. We decided we should try this again.

I've never gotten back with an ex before, and the dilemma i'm facing is how to make a relationship seem like a new one when you're with the same person. As well as we both decided we needed to take this slow this time, because rushing it might lead to the same mistakes we made before. I'm not entirely sure how to take things slow with an ex, any advice would be helpful!

Condense the text into a few key points
<bot>: Back with my ex of 4 years, how do I take things slow as well as spark something new into a relationship that we already had once before?
