Nuala83 Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 SUCCESS STORIES I'd love to know (and I'm sure others would too) if there's anyone out there with reconciliation success stories. I'm not interested in replies that say "It'll never work so don't even bother". You can post them on the 'It'll never work so don't even bother' thread Although reconciliation is not always possible, it does happen for some. It's a fact! And I thin it'd be really nice to hear some happy endings. They probably wont be your own story rather that of someone you know but it's all relevant. I'll start off: Couple 1 (my aunt and uncle) Got together when they were teenagers and had been going out for 4 years when he moved a way to another city. They stayed in contact for the first month (they weren't that far away) when one day his mate called her out of the blue to inform her the relationship she had with him was over (with her boyfriend that is she wasn't with the mate!). She was heartbroken not only to have been dumped but to have had it done over the phone by another person!He dated others, she dated others and they had no contact for almost a year and a half. During this time, he made a lot of changes in his life and one day, out of the blue he came back. Turned up at her door, told her he missed her and wanted her back. It took a lONG time for her to forgive him but evenually they did get back together and they've now been married 34 years. Not an urban myth I assure you but a true story. Couple 2 (my friend) Got together with her boyfriend in college, were together for about a year before splitting up. It was a very messy prolonged breakup with her screaming at him and him throwing a kettle through the window (and not an open one!) and punching a hole in the wall. After they broke up, she went out with others but he didn't date. The kept in contact though it was very minimal. After a few months of this, she called him (she initiated the breakup by the way) just to chat. This went on for a few weeks and they became friends (they kept telling us all they were just friends) and a short while later, they decided to give it another go. They're split up one furhter time about a year later but now they're getting married in 2 weeks time. I'm not a bridesmaid hahahaha! Now, anyone else who has a happy story to share, please share it! Yes some relationships wont get another chance but some will so don't let anyone else tell you it's hopeless.

caz83 Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 I think this is a really nice thread. Sometimes I find people on here are so negative and if you say anything that sounds slightly hopefull you just get shot down and told 'get over it, it will never happen'. Yes, most of the time we know this, but sometimes when ur having a really bad day with it its nice to hear some stories that give you a little bit of hope back. When my boyfriend left I met up with a friend for a chat about it and she had a friend with her who I had met a couple of times but didnt know that well. Anyway, this girl said that she lived with her boyfriend and thought everything was fine, then one day he gave her some money to go out and get herself a dress for his brothers wedding they were going to, so she went shopping, came home showed him the dress etc and he just said 'i dont love you anymore' and that he was moving out. He moved back to his parents and she was going crazy, she kept driving past his house and texting him and calling him and every time they spoke he would just say ' I dont love you anymore'. So one day she decided she had had enough and stopped calling etc. then 2 months later she got the 'I miss you' call from him. They have been back together for three years and are now engaged.
robinincarolina Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 I dated my guy for 11 months, he out of the blue told me he did not want a relationship although we already were in one. Broke up, went on with my life as I took him at his word. I loved him very much by the way. 1 month later he is on my doorstep and decided he did want a relationship with me and yes we got back together. This is not one of those it took forever things, but we reconciled. Sometimes with men and commitment, the way we handle the breakup determines if we will get them back or not. Had I whined, begged and pleaded, I doubt he would ever have come back, but I accepted him at his word and let him walk away and then I let him walk back.
