Just curious... have any of you successfully gotten back together with an ex?
 
Just curious... have any of you successfully gotten back together with an ex?

I haven't. I got back together with my ex bf 3 times. It was a mistake and just prolonged our issues. He wanted me to be someone I'm not and it just didn't work out.
 
I have once and never again will I.

My belief is that you broke up with this person (or vice versa) for a reason. That reason was strong enough for you to not want to be around them anymore. While people can throw out a variety of reasons to get back together, about 95% of the time, they haven't changed, you will see the things you hate about them resurfacing and it will end again.

I'm not saying whether you should get back with them, but sit there and think why you two broke up in the first place and whether you can overcome that reason to be with them.
 
I haven't, but know people who have. Sometimes it's worked and sometimes it doesn't.

What's your story--are you thinking about attempting this?

If it were up to me we'd get back together, but I'm not the one who ended it. Without going into too much detail, the distance got to be too much and caused a lot of strain which resulted in her ending it right before moving down here.

We talked a lot and I understand her reasons, but it mostly comes down to circumstance and a few minor misunderstandings. We've both said we want to be together and that maybe in the future it'll work out... There's too much baggage for her to just come back. Really, she needs to take some time to be on her own (she's a few years younger than I am and has never had her own place) and to grow up a little.

It's only been about a month and a half and I know that's not enough time for me to be clear-headed about it. We took a short break from talking on the phone after breaking up, but there was a recent tragedy in my family so she called to check on me. Now we're texting a little, but not everyday.

I'm not really looking for advice. I just wanted to hear other people's stories.
 
Never have.

I do have one particular ex and both of us at times wanted to get back together but circumstances always got in the way. If we had accomplished it within a year or so of our breakup, it might have worked. Too late at this date, I'm sure.
