A while back, a friend and I got talking and he was strongly against the opinion of returning to one's 'EX', and according to him, it didn't work out because something prevented it from working out, and chances are that it would still fail if one goes back to an old relationship.

According to him, the word 'EX' is taken from the word 'expired' - why then, would an 'expired' relationship come back alive?

I have read some things on this section, particularly of some ladies saying their 'Exes' want them back. My question is this, is it really proper returning to your ex and what are the chances that it would be a success the second time

It's really hilarious reading about people wanting their “Ex” back. I mean why would you want to take back someone who walked out on you?... To start a relationship that already ran its course? Don't get me wrong, I'm not against reconciliation. It's just that this doesn't make sense to me.

answer yourself cz no one will ever give u "satisfying" answer.

Hmmmmm

True, it doesn't make sense, just that you find most people reminiscing on the good times they had with their exes and how he/she is the only one who 'understands' them better. Ironic if you ask me. Love your sig, by the way

That, I believe, is the reason for creating the thread. A friend gave his opinion, and I'm throwing it out to people. I can't know it all, you know?

At least it worked for 2face Idibia and if you feel your ex is expired then you are obviously expired toø.Its supposed to be one man and a woman together for life and not one man or woman with many sex partners then later gets married.The world just keep getting weird.

you shouldn't go back to your vomit. There are good times in all relationships, but there were more bad times else (s)he wouldn't be an ex. Only insecure people return to what they're through with. Though there are few exceptions. It mostly depends on what led to the break-up

First thing: Tu Face and Annie never broke up, he just went on a spree while Annie was regarded as the main chick.
With that being said, yes, a man and a woman for life. But don't you think the person you settle with makes it that one person for you?
And more importantly, must every relationship revolve around sex I does baffle me when we believe both of them walk hand in hand.

one beautiful thing is that opinions differ and it all depends on what we think and believe. You nailed it and it is as if you were there when my naughty friend aired his views.

Why would anyone want to get
their ex back? Why would you
want to take back someone who
walked out on you? Why would
you want to start a relationship
that already ran its course? Why
would you want to be with
someone who doesn’t want to be
with you?. The fact that you love your ex,
you miss your ex, or that you
are miserable without your ex is
never a good reason to get back
together. Your mind will trick
you into thinking anything just
to avoid the pain of breakup. Now, I am not against
reconciliation, But I am against
the idea of putting your ex
before your happiness. The only
reason to get back together is if
you want to give the relationship
another try and not because you
need your ex.

Its a terrible thing to do. Few of my Exes came back and frankly they didn't enjoy the coming back, not that I was harsh to them, am not a harsh person anyway!, they will eventually get tired and just walk away. Once an ex will remain an ex. Trust me.

Dats second chance... It depends on wat causes dia break up at d first instance, if she shld leave me for anoda guy, n now she's coming back again, I think I will just consider her as a s** toy, weneva konji catch me, no to command her....

Well, it all depends on what caused the break up at first,if there was an end to the relationship due to cheating,trust issues. ...it's going to be somehow going back to that relationship,but if there was a break up because of uncontrollable circumstances, like travel distance,health issues,or fear of incompatibility, then it's quite possible that the relationship may be rekindled due to feelings that have once existed between the partners. ....but it's rare to find such,as they both would probably have moved on and found new partners.

I can't go back. And they better not try to come back. Well, they know I won't even give it a second thought.

The world is brimming with better options.

Well, I don't agree with you totally. Not all EX are bad. What if you suddenly realise your mistake...what if you broke up with her/him for the wrong reasons? What if you guys are just meant to be and nature keeps bringing you guys together? What if he/she was rejected by your parents/siblings at first for no just cause so i don't think is totally bad especially if you guys agreed to do so.

I so concur with this. Sometimes, we make mistakes which we realise later on especially in relationships. I see nothing wrong in one reuniting with your ex for sometimes, you need to separate in order for you guys to know how much you need each other. Only pride can stop a reunion even after both parties know how much they have gotten used to each other.

well I think sex makes the major diff cause if i have a side chick and a main chick and i dont have sex with neither of them i dont think they'll feel toø bad as long as i've not proposed to any of em.

No probs then

An ex should always remain an ex IMO. Let bygones be bygones,that it didn't work in the past is a sign that it may never work out.

It could go both ways anyway.

Hell NO.....I cant accept any of my Ex back....

I simply cant chop my vomit.....We broke-up for a reason...So, whats the point in patching it up again??....

When i know there are lots of better guys out there.....

It's not good and you'll never have that respect for him/her again especially when your partner messed up in the first me.. But for me
