Getting back with an ex

Inspired by justgenetics' post in my other thread:

Did just pass the 6 month mark of getting back together with an ex though srs, but that’s different

Not interested, unless the reasons for the breakup are really unique it likely won't work.....What I would ask you is this....What is going to change or has changed with them or you that makes you think it would be different this time? People don't change rapidly either and that means she is out there slobbing on Tyrone and Co's tree branches.....No thanks.

I'm not the guy to take advice from since I banged ex #1 after she was engaged to a new guy and continue to bang ex #2 on and off. I should just follow this.

It is always time and effort better spent developing new, fresh, prospective women than it will ever be in attempting to reconstruct a failed relationship. Never root through the trash once the garbage has been dragged to the curb.

Voted it can work, inb4 jinxed..

6 months back together with an ex who I dated for close to 2 years prior, only issues were on my end towards the beginning, and since we’ve been in lockdown most of the time back together things felt normal pretty fast. Only real difference is we both matured a good amount, particularly myself. She’s also been very clingy the last few months which has been getting a bit hard to deal with, but we’re finally getting out of lockdown. Das it, Mane.

Explained that to her, grabbed my stuff and left. She also sent me nasty, rude text messages afterward telling me everything she thinks is "wrong" with me. Blocked her on everything and never seen her since

It can't work, at least it's extremely unlikely to do so. The only way possible is if neither of you increased your body count during the break, and even then probably not because you'l both always wonder and to be honest you broke up for a reason in the first place (therefore not long term compatible)

Possible? Yes. High chance of success? No.

I've done it. The spark is never the same and you end up fighting over the same stuff as before. People generally don't change.

You’re spiraling

You got dumped and now the multiple threads and mental gymnastics have started on how you can get her back after she’s done boning other dudes

Oh I forgot, you said she’s not that type of girl

About a year. Around 3 months back together I could pretty much tell it wasn't going to work. I knew no matter how much I busted my ass to try to fix things she wouldn't change. Stuck around because I wanted to be 100% sure and also part of me being a pussy because I knew the break up would be awful.

Ended up breaking up with her again. It sucked, but it was a huge learning experience and I know what I want out of relationships now.

The problem is simple

Men solve problems if they want to

Women don't

A man can go into a retry knowing what he has to correct to make it work

A woman doesn't think this way

Both sides will never be on the same page because of this
