pippa02 Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 (edited) Just curious, anyone have a second chance work out? I'm thinking most second chances won't work out unless people have at least 6months to a year apart? anyone know any stories about them working out? be nice too hear, and yes of course I know they don't happen often! Actually my ex boyfriends parents broke up for two years when he decided he wanted just to have some time to travel and work wherever (same as my sito) and they got married and are still married. Just interested in other stories too. Edited June 2, 2011 by pippa02 Link to post Share on other sites
Bateman Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Agreed...I have witnessed second chances myself, but it can't be rushed. As homebrew said, it will take some time and some letting go. Off the top of my head, I can recall 4 couples breaking up, taking time away from each other and even dating other people and 3 of the couples are now either engaged or married.

whiskers Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 I always assume second chances never work out, although clearly they do as there are people who it has worked out for. When I think about it though I don't see how it actually happens, if the two people have gotten over eachother what makes them go back there? Especially as lots of break ups end up with no contact. For the people you know is it usually just the people meeting coincidentially and develop feelings again or does one of them seek out the other person because they realise they wanted them back? I'm not asking this as in I want it to happen to me I'm just curious! I agree about there needing to be time away from eachother for it to work though. I've been in a recent situation where I tried to give a second chance weeks after a break up and it was just a disaster! Link to post Share on other sites
Bateman Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 I actually don't know the circumstances that lead to each couple getting back together, I just know that it happened. All I do know is that there was a substantial amount of time between the breakups. Which was around a year or so. And all during that time, each person had dated at least one other person. Sounds ****ty I know, but it's just an observation. Link to post Share on other sites
guccimane99 Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 Ill tell you that you are right if your given a second chance and you two aren't over the break up then it will never work. The two people will be justs overwhelmed with emotions. I havent gotten back with any of my exs they both dumped me. Im over them and its been like six months since the first one. If any of them do come back ill be sure to come back and write but who knows what is in store for the future. Link to post Share on other sites
