Don't get back with your exes...

edited February 2008 in General
I feel as if this should be common sense to most people. Why would you even do it? Unless you broke up because somebody was moving or you thought he was MIA or something, don't get back together. You broke up for a reason, and it's just going to be hell once you get back together, and you'll only end up here, with me having to read it and tell you how much of an idiot you are.

So please, give people a once over, and maybe a reacharound, but don't go back for seconds. PLEASE.

    Should have read this on Saturday night!
    My ex and I have been talking for the past month or so, after both of us going MIA for a few months. Then I ended up spending the night at his place. I'd like to say it's just sex, no strings attached at this point but of course there's a little emotional involvement in this.
    Not sure what to do at this point.

    ive gotten back with my long distance ex two times and might be going for a third, our break ups havent been based on personality clashes. so maybe you mean dont go back with exes where you broke up because you didnt like them

    they are probably not, but maybe they broke up because of cheating etc, in which case they are jerks and my statement is true

    Not cheating, but he is a jerk. Your statement has truth.

    Doesnt it depend on HOW you two broke up?

    I totally agree if it's something like CHEATING (or other major things..) but honestly, what CAN'T be repairable?

    I find that people try to get back cuz it was a good thing...and the reason for breakup wasnt a good one.

    I've never even looked back, but it's just what I've seen from friends and I understand.

    Good point.
    We got into a pretty big argument the day after 'the event', and I've been wanting to explain myself because he took things the wrong way, but he didn't answer my call. He was always very, very unreliable and inaccessible because of his job (I think I bitched about him a good few months back...) but I forgot just how bad it really was.
    I'll let him reach me if need be, but at this point I'm cutting my losses and heading for the door.

    Good for you, Nicole. If he is unreliable and inaccessible due to work. Then his priorities are not the same as yours and you should find someone with the same mindedness as you. This way your new relationship will then become stable and quite possibly boring. But if you both work at it (new relationship) then you should never be without a BF. BTW there is no bright-side to breaking up, just move on to big and better or worse and worse. Bwaaahhhh!

    Cheer.

    I'm hoping bigger and better.
    Not just figuratively.
