I just got on the train myself, and I think you'll find new options to be more desirable. Just using myself as an example, I was in love with a girl 9 years ago. We have been distant friends since high school, and I just so happened to shoot her a message on Facebook around the time I was informing everyone in my social circle that I'm leaving the country next year. Lo and behold, she had JUST broken up with the guy she has been seeing for 10 years. She asked ME out, and I agreed. But almost immediately, I started feeling like I had won a chase that I didn't even remember starting. Called it off and set up a date with another girl.
Also, my best friend dated a girl he was best friends with for three years, and they were friends for 3 years before that. I think you do yourself more harm than good, pursuing people you assume you have a higher connection with than any other random girl. They were on and off for a year, total nightmare for most guys on this forum, I would assume. He thought they were soulmates, and his whole argument for it was that he thinks it is impossible to be such great friends for as long as they were and end up not being meant for each other. He won't even flirt with other girls now because he thinks he is only built for deep relationships.
Long story short, I think there is too much at stake. Sure, you get to bang some girls you have been friendzoned by. I've been there before too. But you risk falling into a trap where new women and new opportunities don't come as easily because, in a way, you are living and gaming in the past.

Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag. We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language. And we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.
