  1. I got back together with my ex 6 years ago. Here's a rather depressing little update. I'm not posting it to try and bring any of you down though. I've known a few successful reconciliations. Just not my own.
  2. Well it looks like celebrity couple Jude law and Sienna Miller are officially back together, after 5 years apart! Not the best example of a couple reuniting in my opinion but it just goes to show no situation is hopeless. I mean, he has an affair with his children's nanny, she gets involved with a married man with young children and effectively breaks up their marriage, he then has a baby with another woman....and yet they're back on. Like I said, not the best example of a reunion I've ever heard but hey, I think those two deserve each other.
  3. Hmmm we have a few things in common. Me and my ex were stuck in kinda a rut. We were both in jobs we didn't like but he managed to get a new one, where he met new people and started going out more (breaking out of his rut), whereas I couldn't get a new job so I feel he got fed up and moved on without me You and me and our ex's are the same age as well, so maybe that played a part. That or I was just a sh*te girlfriend! I see you're in Edinburgh (boo!), I'm in Glasgow (yay!). Sorry I'm hijacking this thread....getting back together stories, let's see....Damn I don't have any new ones
  4. Unfortunatley I think that scenario is all too common in break ups too. When one person feels like things aren't 'moving on' then resentment starts to kick in. Not that I'm saying you strung her along, just that I know from experience that feeling of 'it'll never happen'.
  5. The 'false hope' and 'waiting around' stages are all part of the grieving process and something most dumpees go through before either moving on with their lives and in time getting back with their ex, or moving on without them. Yeah there are people that pine away for years over someone who'll never return which is terribly sad and a waste of life, but most people don't fall into this category. I for one found tremendous comfort in these stories. Like Brigadoon says, the hope kept me going while I was dealing with things bit by bit. Almost every couple I know have broken up at least once during their time together. Breaking up and making up or making up then breaking up happen alllll the time. They're as common as muck!
  6. I'm a believer. A crisis can hit you at any time, not just in your mid twenties or middle age (though those are common) and I think most of us (if not all) go through a few of them in our lifetime. Yeah I'm sure the 'life crisis' plays a part in many a break up.
