Do exes ever come back?

why do you wonder that?
Anyways, my story: I moved to another country and continued a few months with my boyfirend in a so-called LDR format. It naturally faded out as we lacked communication and travels were scarse and expensive so no clear future and other issues, so we just stoped to speak. I deleted him from messengers at a one month silence mark.
So life moved on, dating others, I met a local guy I started to date for several month already. Then, new job offer, invited back to his city. I am planning to move back to his country but never planned to contact him. Sure enough he moved on, as I was thinking. Past is the past etc.
Funny thing he contacted me out of the blue, exactly one year after silence and couple months before my move to his country. Just asked how I was doing. I was surpired like hell and answered nothing. Several days after he sent another message “I still love you”. Then pursuited me hard after initial contact extablished. Long story short, I moved to his country and we back together since then. Things are better than before and I am optimistic

Anastasia; I feel its potentially unfinished between us and its right time wrong person, but I’m doing fine in getting on with my life and just seeing what happens! I just like to hear stories of romance and whether it’s worked out! I am so glad it worked out for you, its crazy to think even after you have dated other people and planned futures with them that love can still find a way! :)

when I went off to college I had been dating my high school boyfriend for 3 years and was so in love with him. He dumped me by Thanksgiving as he had started with another girl. I didn’t fully get over it for many many years.
30 years later (!) we both ended up at a birthday party for a mutual friend and chatted and caught up. A month or so later he contacted me and asked me to meet in a park next to my office. There he told me that he couldn’t stop dreaming and thinking of me and that he didn’t love his wife!! I told him sorry as I am married too and do love my husband.
I also had one come back three months after a break up. We gave it another go but the issues were the same so it didn’t work.
So I don’t have any success stories for you but yes, they usually do come back.

Most of them do but, honestly its rarely worth your time.

The only time an ex coming back is worth it,is when they are sincerely wanting a second chance and willing to do the work to change things.

In most cases they will reach out to catch up, see how you have been, for easy sex, or mending a broken heart.

Truthfully by, the time my exes reached out I had gained perspective about the break up and no longer wanted to hear from them.

Please take this time to focus on you and learn from this. If he reaches out you’ll have a much clearer perspective.

Anastasia, that sounds so lovely though that your love found the way. We had a very good relationship until our circumstances changed, nothing dramatic, just we are now at very different points in life. I do hope one day we will find the right time, but I know not to stop my life in the mean time!

Kara, wow that sounds crazy after 30 years he confessed how he felt! I couldn’t imagine doing that to my exes haha! Apart from maybe this one! I’m worried he will always be that one that got away!

Algo, I’m so sorry you had to go through that! He sounds very difficult going between you both! I’m glad you’ve found someone much better!

Khadija, I am completely focused on myself, my mind is just wondering! I know that if we ever did come back together we’d have to work through what happens if our circumstances ever changed again! My first boyfriend who I was with from 18-23 it was me that ended it and I wouldn’t have gone back to him.

Hannah, nice name lol. I’ve never had FWB’s and I know if he suggested that I wouldn’t be able to as I know I’d fall for him again!

Anyone else got any ex back stories? :D
