back story: my exgirlfriend, "L" and I, broke up roughly 3 years ago, but maintain a mutual respect and quasi-friendship.... she is also integrated into my group of friends.
my question is, has anyone gotten together with an Ex that they broke up with and did it work out? were there any issues, and if so what and how did it effect the relationship? trust?
if it didnt work out, why? and how would you have changed things?
i am stilll not sure i want to get back together with her because i see a future or because its comfortable and i know she still wants to be with me, but i would like some opinions out of my group of friends...

Try something new bro, you might just be scared of the unknown. Goodluck

Hmmm... I did get back with my ex... There were issues, there always are... The fact is the problems you once had may still remain, even if you guys want to work it out. You have to talk sincerely about the reason why you broke up and share opinions.
In my case, it worked, we are now very happy together (perhaps it's better than it ever was!). Some of the issues are still there... but the talk we had made me accept the things we can't change.
I know it's tempting to get back together with an ex... but try to make the best decision because another break-up will probably destroy what's left of the friendship between the two of you.
Good luck to you!

I have gotten back together with an Ex, as far as it working out I'm still in progress on the working out part, we are getting married so that's good but who knows. The thing that is GOING to come up is whatever caused you to break up in the first place. So be prepared to deal with the issues that caused you to split, and don't be overly eager to split again because if you are even entertaining this suggestion that means that you may not agree that splitting up was the right move. Good luck to you, just remeber the person she is (and you are) is 95% of the person she was 3 years ago (assuming you are both over say... 25 because people can change when they are young but at your core you are basically the same person you were when you were 20) Good luck bro, and I hope this helps.

probably wont work out. will be ok for a while, then the same problems will just come back, that caused the break-up in the past, i been through this with an x-girlfriend, and an x-wife, but you can still give it a try, my situation was that i changed , but they didn't, if you both realized what went wrong, you might have a Chance, so go for it, but don't get your hopes up.

unless the issues that caused the initial break up have been addressed and solved, you are probably in for a repeat of whatever you went through before.
