Should you go back with an ex?

[Petal~flower]

If he dumped you, in not a very nice way, but is now very keen to get back with you?

Do you try and forgive and forget, or just forget and move on????

I think pasta was agreeing with you that if you scrape the barrel and plead to get back together, it often gets thrown in your face and doesn't work out anyway.
If you're going now legend - then night night - but it sounds to me like you've gone a bit morose. x

aw Ice, how terrible for you...........

the ex moved away from me, so I only know he met other women from what he has told me..........and he told me!!!

he lives about 150 miles away now, but wants to come back to be with me...........but like you all said, I must have reservations by me posting

Thanks for your input Legend

Hi Tigger........catch you soon xxxxx

Hun - I'd be so pleased for you if you got back together and things worked out. It's just hard to see that happening, because as you said yourself, he dumped you in not a very nice way - and then went straight intot the arms of someone else, so to speak. That doesn't say anything to me about love, or even caring for you - but sorry if that sounds harsh, because i don't know the full story. You've got peoples' opinions now, and obviously you wanted to see what the general thinking was. If you're hesitating, then I'd just say don't do it, but whatever happens, i hope you end up happy. x

Hi Petal, I remember the heartache you went through and how low you felt, do you really want to go back for more? he treated you really badly, you really must do a lot of thinking and remembering what it was like when he was in your life, we all look back thinking "well maybe it wasn't so bad," but it was, wasn't it, he is an ex for a reason, and that reason is because he was an arse. if you want to talk you have my e-mail. take care and look after the ones you love and yourself.

God damm why havent I seen this post before. I say veryone deserves a 2nd chance, but it does deoend on why he dumped you. I went out with bloke previously 5 years ago, he dumped me after 2 weeks (by txt). He then realised a few years ago he�d made a huge mistake, he was young stupid, listened to too much gossip and continued to chase me for the next year or so. We have now been together over a year and I�ve never been so happy. I trust him 100% :-)

Hi Petal~flower.

Certainly seems like he dumped you so he wouldn't feel guilty about sleeping around and acting like a 'lad' living his own life by moving so far away. Now he realises it isn't all that great and thinks he can just get back with you.
Listen to Beautiful South's "A little time" sounds just like him!

Are you sure the only reason he doesn't want to move back is because he needs to come back to the area and it's convienient to just take back up with you?
If this was me I wouldn't go back to him if he had hurt me so bad but it's easy for me to say that being on the outside, you must be feeling some turmoil but remember it is him and his behaviour that is causing that, do you really want him back when he can make you feel this way?

I wish you all the best Petal :o)

~Wingnut~... made me well up when I went to your link...

He is still playing the same mind games with me...

I wish he had never got back in contact, as I was doing fine xx

Does he want to come crawling back because his latest girlfriend dumped him?

If you were badly hurt last time, how sure are you that he won't repeat the process. "Once bitten, twice shy" is always a good rule to follow in cases like this.

[puzzledmind8]

well sometimes everyone deserves a second chance but it depends how much they hurt you and whether you choose to risk it again.

plus some things are hard to forget. i think its a case of following your heart and thinking carefully about who you want to be in your life.
