just1looking2 Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 Initiated a breakup, then got back together, what turned you around? Looking for success stories, thought process as you moved through the various stages before reconnecting... Did it work? Why? Why not? Link to post Share on other sites
Felt Better Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 There are some success stories out there. I think the stats are inherently biased towards not getting back together as who comes on the internet to talk about a relationship success? Not many, mainly the opposite. There is a girl on here somewhere who posted about her bf of 9 years younger than her. They reconciled.That's a really great read and motivational if you're going through a break up with hopes of getting back together. Link to post Share on other sites
MichaelD Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 From what i read on internet stories, most came back because they were either lonely, found that grass wasnt greener on the other side, very few cases are that of those who broke up for other reasons instead of someone else in the picture.

Happy Lemming Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 I've posted this story before, but will share again. I was dating a wonderful woman, and I thought things were going pretty good. For some reason, her "friends" convinced her she could do better or some other crap and she dumped me. I told her the "so called friends" won't keep her warm at night and within 2 years they would all be gone, as they were "drinking/bar/pub friends". As for me, I quickly moved on... NEXT!! 18 months later I get a call... I was right, she was wrong (bar friends gone) and we got back together. I'd like to say we lived "happily ever after", but a family emergency tore her away from me. She was forced to move half-way across the country, so we said "Good-bye" for the second time. I agreed that she should move and handle this family emergency. It was the right thing to do. At least this "good-bye" was said with kindness and love. I wish her all the best and hope she found love in her new locale. Link to post Share on other sites
KatCha Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 All is fair in love and war. There are no rules. Just people. A billion people who are each unique. You can only hope and pray that the person you love truly loves you too if you are embarking on this path. Can people reunite, you ask? Why not, I say. Why not? But these are words spoken in hope. From me. With love. Because I do believe in love, and nobody and no situation is going to tell me different, ever! I stand by my beliefs because they are the very essence of all I do and who I am and what I love the most about myself. And nobody is going to tell me to change that part of me for them. Not because they need to follow the rules, or polite society, or their own hearts. I know what love is and I know how to love and I know where my love comes from, and love never fails. It knows all and sees all and acts accordingly to the laws of love, of which man cannot contain within his own set of rules. Can you cage the air you cannot see? Methinks not, good sir! So, follow your own heart, trust your own self or lean not on your own understanding...sorry, this probably won't help anyone who reads it. But I know what I'm saying...just saying.
