Ryan_XD Posted January 14, 2016 Posted January 14, 2016 Recently a friend of mine who had been splitup with her ex for over 2 years has got back with him today and they're going to try again. The split up as I remember was simple they just didn't feel the same and I guess they fell out of love, nobody was to blame. In the past 2 years, they've both grown up a lot, met new people, experienced new things and now she says that they are at a point in their life where they are similar and stand a better chance at making something of the relationship than ever before. Just wondered, what are peoples opinions on getting back with an ex partner? would you ever do it? Have you ever done it? Cheers
PathToExile Posted January 15, 2016 Posted January 15, 2016 If it ended on mutual/good terms, without cheating or hate, then I don't see why not (assuming they're both single). I'd give it a chance to see if there's a spark.
theredpill Posted January 15, 2016 Posted January 15, 2016 It's the only real way getting back together will actually work for most people, those going through the pain of loneliness craving something that's already broken by the way one or both parties acted will typically fail and research suggests the numbers are over 90% of early reconciliations failing within the first 3 to 6 months. In two years people can grow a lot, understand more about who they are and if the breakup was handled maturely, there no reason not to try again if they want. My brother and his fiancé broke up for about 7 months, then got back together and still are 6 years later. Peoples feelings change, my ex, ex looked me in the eye and said I'd hurt her and all feelings had gone, got with someone new within weeks. Then just 4 or 5 months later came begging to get back together and how she'd made a huge mistake. Your friends have probably got a better chance than most of making this work. Good luck to them!
