Man with Dog

Been there, done that, written the screenplay for the film and designed the T-shirt!

I'm more inclined not to get too optimistic about getting back together and not just through personal bias. I once got back with an ex, mainly because I missed the sex and I'm not proud to admit it. Of course, I dumped her when I met someone more attractive. On the other side, I've spent weeks/months hoping to get back with an ex but realised I was wasting my time. It CAN work but I think you need to fix what caused the BU for it to have a chance. The stats are more in favour of moving on with someone new or even learning to enjoy being single. I'm over 20 years into my 2nd marriage and there's NO WAY I'd consider changing my wife for my ex wife or anyone else I've ever dated. I think we need to be honest and realistic here.
