Before I get into my opinion on this I'm going out line a few assumptions that factor into what I'm thinking.
1. That this man is reasonably good looking and that he is very intelligent.
2. that the sex in Europe was amazing.
Now the reason I outline those assumptions is because those are the things that stick with us even when we forget other things. Our brains choose to remember the good things over the bad, and 14 years is a long time to remember. So you may want to consider that you may romantizing your memories without being really aware of it. So really dig down and think what feeling this may cause to relive and weither you want those feelings or not. I also know that relationships between people with mental health issues can be explosive and intense affairs, so be prepared for the possibility of him or his family being resentFul, as well as the possibility of overwhelming emotions on your part.
You also have to consider the possibility of emotions it could set off in him, given that he may still have a highly impulsive personality.
I'm not saying don't do it, your capable and intelligent woman, but think hard on what this can do to you and what you hope to gain.

To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
