Mutual Breakups then getting back together

[ttjames]

I'm wondering how many of you have experienced a mutual break up because of being too young or needing to grow sort of reasons( or whatever reason) and then sometime in the future getting back together? I mean like years in the future.

 

Have you heard of many successes? Have you experienced it?

 

Good or bad?

 

Don't reply if you're just going to say "let it go" or "move on" I know, and I'm not waiting!

 

I just want to hear some true stories.

Dunno if this will be of any help to you, but I and an ex broke up a long time ago - it was a mutual breakup. Both of us wanted different things, hence the breakup. There were still a lot of feelings on both sides, it was really hard for us to let go of one another.

 

Fast forward 9 years later, he contacts me out of the blue one day. Says he's missed me all these years, he's always wondered about me and he wants me to know that he still cares deeply for me. Likewise I'd always wondered about him too, what he was doing now, how he was, etc, my feelings for him never died. After a few more emails we have arranged to meet. Unsure of where it's going to lead, but all the same we are still back in touch, have regular contact.......so you could say we found each other again and after years of being apart.

[color=blue][/color] That is so romantic!! I have NEVER had a mutual break up! I broke up with my boyfriend, and he still wont leave me alon! I really am jealous!!! HE HE! I think it is possible to break up and get back together. However, I also think that the time you spent apart will play a big part in the relationship, like "What did you do?", "Did you see anyone else?" stuff like that. But hey I hope it works out for you matey!!

Yeah, a lot of couples who break up sometimes eventually do get back together again and years later. The time to be together may not have been right back then, that doesn't mean that there will be no right time for you both in the future. Throughout those years spent apart, both people may have moved on, moved miles away from one another, met other people, got married, had kids (which all happened in our situation btw, although I am now divorced, he is recently seperated), but still some lost loves will find their way back to one another. If it was meant to be, it will be

 

Must admit that I never would've thought in a million years that our paths would cross again, that he'd come looking for me and particularly after all these years. But all these years I still carried feelings for him deep in my heart and I never ever forgot him, seems that applied in his case also.

I so agree with that!! I am a big believer in "Things happen for a reason"!

I don't know if this helps. My current and I are going through that exact situation, except it's only been 1.5 years since the first time we dated. Not exactly "Years" persay. We dated for a few months, but had to break up because of distance. We stayed in pretty frequent contact (about once a week or so) by email and IM. Recently, we now live in the same city and we reconilated.

 

It's only been two months since that happened though, so it may be

pre-mature to hold us up as a prime example or anything, but it's hope, right?
