leafguy Posted July 6, 2013 Posted July 6, 2013 I know there is a giant thread for GIGS, but I saw a recent question that stuck out and with everyone venting stories, this seemed like a good idea to ask. Has anyone ever experienced GIGS to later find out they were dead wrong and want the old one back they left in the first place? How long did it take you to realize? Were you successful in your attempt to reconcile? Any other details, please add them.
Nicoleiia Posted July 7, 2013 Posted July 7, 2013 I guess the grass is greener. But people aren't always meant to be together. So, I don't take it personal that I was dumped. Sure, I hope my ex's new relationship implodes but thats doubtful and hopefully I will never hear from them again. I don't care if the grass is greener or not.

Who cares you shouldn't be looking at what they are doing.One thing I know is that my grass is much greener since my ex left and my life is much better without her trampling all over it remember no one has a right to make you miserable but everybody has a right to be happy so I don't hope she has a horrible life I really don't care what she finds all I know is I'm happy now and that's the main thing. 1
athousandquestions Posted July 7, 2013 Posted July 7, 2013 If you read the GIGs thread you'll see stories of people coming back. The fact is that by the time it happens you've usually realized you're better off without them I don't look at GIGs as "they made a mistake and will realize the grass isn't greener". I think it's a learning process. MOST people (especially young ones) need to go out and experience being single, living their life separate from anyone else, drinking, partying, etc. because it is, in a way, part of their development. (Not everyone goes through this but a lot of people do). So it isn't that they realize they made a mistake, it's that they fulfilled their need for being single and become ready to settle down again. My opinion.
Author leafguy Posted July 7, 2013 Author Posted July 7, 2013 I think your opinion is very apt. I was just curious as I did not have the time to read through the 800+ posts nor do I wish too. I was simply just asking to cure my curiosity. Maybe its just my emotional side asking that still wants everything to be ok, even though I know its over.
