Hi all. The subject of this post almost says it all but a little more details. We applied for our K1 visa (submitted petition) around the end of July. Some situations occurred in the past couple of weeks (including work commitment) which led to the petitioner reaching out to USCIS to withdraw our petition, but now things are clearer and we wish to carry on with the application again. Can we reach out to them yet again that we want to carry on with the petition (even us know that that's a really weird move), if we do reach out to them, won't it affect our chances?? Will they even listen to us this time?
It's just a few days between the petitioner reaching out to withdraw and now, and the status of the petition remains the same on the USCIS website, although we know that takes a time to change even after the status of application has actually changed.
We haven't reached out to them yet about our change of mind as we are thinking of the best way to approach this but we literally have to continue with the application. Advices, opinions and comments are all welcome. Thanks all.

Withdrawals are irrevocable.  You must submit a new petition....and expect possible questions at the interview. Shouldn't be a big problem.  Good luck. 

Thank you. Explaining the answers to questions about it hopefully won’t be a problem as we are very genuine and should be able to explain everything. I appreciate your response

Also how long would you suggest we wait for filing again? Just your opinion. Thanks

I see no reason to wait.
