My ex just told me he was sexually assaulted before we met which is why he was always so angry when we were together. Now he wants to meet.?

He was a pathological liar. We had a lot of love for each other, but he was always so angry. I didn't know that our entire relationship he had lied to me about almost everything, until 7 months into the relationship, which is why i decided to break things off when he got out of the navy and moved back home across the country. He had wanted me to come with.

Just a week ago, a year since we broke up, he dm'd me telling me he'd like to meet during a layover in my city. I told him i had no reason and it would be weird. then he started opening up to me. He told me he loved me with everything he had, wanted to marry me and have kids. He was just really "psychologically messed up" Then he told me the reasoning behind this, as well as why he was always so angry during our relationship. He was sexually assaulted by another man/men when he first joined the military. He said he had never told anyone but therapists, because nobody understands. I told him how sorry I was, and how important forgiveness is.

Thie incident had happened about 5 years ago now. He basically told me he will never get over what happened that night, and that they 'ruined his life'. That he just wants a wife who i understanding of his anger, and will help him replace those bad memories with the new ones.

1. Should i meet up with him to re-kindle our friendship?

2. Should i possibly give him another chance?

3. How do i help him move on, or is there no hope of him letting go?

Thank you so much
