Back with my ex.....?

Question

did it work for you if you went back to an ex partner?????

Answer 1

Me and my boyfriend were together for 4 years we then split up for 5 months and got back together a week ago!! So we will see!! I will be a bit difficult for a while because we have both been with other people in the time apart but we both really want it to work so i cant see why it wont!!It depend on the reasons you split up in the first place i think,and for me it was because we got stuck in a bit of a rut and i was bored!!If its something more serious like 1 of you cheating then maybe it would be harder!But theres no harm in giving it a go if thats what you want to do!! x x

Answer 2

Nope, you split up for a reason. Unless the reason no longer exists then you'll just start to think the same way later on and the whole thing will happen again. And if it was your decision to split in the first place then what has made you change your mind now? Sometimes people just pine for something they think was better in the past and try to go back, never worked for anyone I know. Far better on move on.

Answer 3

My husband left me 10 years ago when we were three years married and I still had a career. He came back after a month and within 10 months I was pregnant and had given up my job to go with him to Germany for his job. In the 10 years since I worked hard at rebuilding the trust back to 100%. So now three children later, a stay-at -home mum he left me again permanently and is living with an ex-girlfriend and her two children. If I could go back 10 years and tell my gullible self what would happen in the future I'd do it whilst smacking my stupid self with each syllable. Please take from this what you wish, and I wish you all the very best. :-))

Answer 4

no, it didnt. It was just a waste of time for the both of us. Thinking that something was there, and forcing it to be there. We just wanted to pretend, and pretending doesnt get you very far. When two people are just not meant to be the first time, theres no reason to pull the cover over your eyes and pretend that there is. I am not saying it wouldnt work out for anyone, because i am sure it can, in some cases. But you would just have to recall what went wrong the first time, and see if that could be fixed this time around.

Answer 5

Nope never.... I never go back. I always look forward. I am friends, Even best friends, with MOST of my ex's, but I could never date them again. I realize now that YES, we can be friends, but there was a pretty good reason why things didnt work out, and most people dont change all that much. So it hasnt ever worked out for me. Good luck tho, it might be different for you!

Answer 6

They are an ex for a reason right? Are we talking married ex or high school ex? College ex? IF married and then divorced....move on. High school, college.....perhaps a second shot is in order.

Answer 7

Never, the old things that busted up the relationship the first time around effected the second time around...not worth it. I have learned to move forward and never take a step backward.

Answer 8

If it didn't work the first time - what makes you think it'll work the second time???

Have either one of you changed or gone for therapy??? If not - move on - there are more fish in the sea.

Answer 9

All depends why the split the first time and if reasons have been sorted.

Answer 10

been there done that and no it didnt work your ex is an ex for a reason you realise. maybe it will work for you. good luck honey.x
