Thorgs Posted August 14, 2010 Posted August 14, 2010 Sorry to be the first to reply, but these stories are few and far...although they do happen when the conditions are right. Sadly, that doesn't happen as often as I would like
lullaby Posted August 15, 2010 Posted August 15, 2010 I have two stories. One is of my best female friend. His bf told her he didn't know if he loved her, so the broke up. She maintained LC with him for over a year, it was a tough, hurting process for her but she couldn't manage being away from him and settled to his terms until he was finally ready to get back. This was 2 years ago. They got back together for more than a year, are living together and planning on having a child so things are working perfectly for them. The other is one of my male friends. They were together 4 years, then he found out she was cheating on him so they broke up. A year pass, without any contact. Both went on their own and even dated other people. One year later they met at a party of a mutual friend and started dating again. This was 4 years ago. They're living together, got married and even have a child. It's true that there're few reconciliation stories, of all my friends I only have 2 to share, the rest never got back with their exes and those who did, it didn't work out in the end I wish I could tell you mine someday....
Username37 Posted August 15, 2010 Posted August 15, 2010 Remember this: Just because you here a good reconciliation story DOESN'T mean it's gonna be your story. I was searching everywhere for stories and I remember reading someone's comment and it was what I said up top. I miss my ex, you probably do too. I wish you luck and we'll get through this ****.
boltsfan17 Posted August 15, 2010 Posted August 15, 2010 I have heard of many reconciliation stories. I don't understand why some people seem to think they are so rare. I have quite a few friends that are in reconciled relationships. A few have turned into marriage. I do believe they work under certain circumstances. My brother and his girlfriend broke up. Months later, they reconciled their relationship and are now married with 2 kids. My roommate broke up with his girlfriend after a year. They ended up getting back together and have been going on 3 years strong I believe.
Achlys Posted August 15, 2010 Posted August 15, 2010 My husband and I seperated for 8 months previously, after 3 years of marriage, living in seperate countries. We never cut contact completely and eventually we got back together, after long talks and what I thought was us working out our differences. Coupled with him supposedly having 'you are the love of my life' revelations. 17 months later, here I am... We've been seperated for 7 months now. I realise now he had his eye on the door the whole time, expecting and prepared to leave at the first sign of trouble. Meaning he never gave us a real chance to make it work second time round. That said what do i know, here i am still unable to give up hope, but a third time round doesnt seem very likely.
bboy Posted August 16, 2010 Posted August 16, 2010 I've reconsiled several times, with several women. 0% success rate in the end. This might sound harsh... But once you've started trying again and realize that a lot of the bad break up feelings is actually about the loss and not how great the other person is... Then you're not too happy in that relationship and eventually this will deteriorate the relationship and end up in another break up. What I'm trying to say is that not all relationships are always that great as we remember them. Our minds have a tendency to remember all the "great" and forget all the "bad". It's really a mean function and causes a lot of pain. One of the lessons I've learned from youth love is that sometimes a relationship breaking, is the best thing that could have happened. But those words are so hard to understand at the moment. I met an ex that I had a 5 year relationship with last christmas after not seeing her for 6 years. Oh my... I had absolutley ZERO feelings for her. She wasn't even a fraction of what my mind remembered as...
