Hi All,

 

I want to try and describe a situation in which I’d love some opinions on, I hope I am making some sense here.

 

If a person who’s currently in a great relationship then suddenly decides to end it for a nonsensical reason so that it gives them a path to go back to an ex who regretted ending their relationship and that who still had feelings for them and was trying to get back with them, if they re-started their relationship, would their relationship actually work? Surely things would be different in comparison to how it used to be with them?

 

Could the person feel regret because they knew that they shouldn’t have really ended their current relationship because there was no real reason to but really ended a perfectly good relationship just for the sake of being with someone they loved in the past and was confused about if they still really loved and cherished what they once used to about them?

 

I mean for example, it’s like had something you dreamed of all your life, it gets taken away from you only to find you have another chance at getting it back, the very thing you always wanted but you’re stuck because you’ve already got something that you really like or even better in some ways but however just can’t let go of what they loved about the previous relationship.

 

I think if a person does this then they will continually look over their shoulder in each relationship because I think they would always be the curious type who can’t let go or move on to the future.

 

I also think that if someone ends a perfectly good relationship for a really stupid reason then they will certainly never forget what they had done especially if they were treated like gold, I am sure they would measure this against their old relationship as their expectancy would have changed especially if they were treated well, so maybe the ex that they went back to really has their work cut out to keep them and continue the standard that was set.

 

I think the key thing here is the regret comes into it if they left something they were very happy with that would cause them future unrest.

 

Thanks for reading and apologies if I don’t make much sense.

Okay, this probably involves you, so why did you have to make it so cryptic? Why not just say I did this or my ex did that? That would make more sense and then you wouldn't have to apologize.

I see what you're saying but I wrote it in this way because it's just a general assumption and not factual so I think it would be wrong of me to write something that's really only potentially circumstantial, especially since it's not actually happened (yet or even at all) but I am just suspecting it may do.
