favoritepills Posted April 16, 2012 Posted April 16, 2012 Have you or someone you know ever been through a breakup, spent some time apart and then gotten back together stronger than ever? I'd like to know if such experiences really happen.
january2011 Posted April 16, 2012 Posted April 16, 2012 Yes, my ex returned to his ex and married her. It does happen that people can reconnect but it's not something that's guaranteed. I wouldn't want to give you any false hope, especially if you're fresh from a break-up and still desperately holding on to any chance of reconcilation.
dandan89 Posted April 17, 2012 Posted April 17, 2012 It does happen but very rarely. One of my best friends left his gf of two years (they were quite young, 18 and 15). They went out with other people and were apart for nearly 2 years before they started hanging out together with mutual friends. They then started going out again and have been for 2 years now and are happier than ever. It just takes time and if you two by chance meet up in the future (I think it has to be by chance) and hit it off then awesome. But you can't wait and live on this. I myself am thinking about this because I have very recently split up with my gf of 4 and a half years. We are both at Uni in the uk and she feels she needs freedom as she has been with me all her adult life (since she was 16 and I was 18). She told me she loves me but is not in love with me anymore and she doesn't think she will be able to feel the same about me again. We have done amazing stuff together, travelled, always treated her good (people tell me too good) and I love her with all my heart. Its been two months and I just can't pull myself together though I know I should. I am desperately trying and failing. I've joined the gym to try look my best, all for her, sad I know but I just want to look for her. So yeah, it's all about timing. You can't control it, you just have to let it flow and show you are a decent loving person. Don't go out of your way to show her but let her see it by herself. If there are faults on your behalf then work on them and remember to not let them affect you next time. For me I believe its bad timing, I got with her when she was quite young and she needs a taste of freedom. And maybe, just maybe by chance when she's had that she'll remember me and realise she had it bloody good. Hope this helps and sorry for the essay 3
