My friend Samantha announced today that she and her ex are back together. Her ex left her way back in August so it took almost 9 months. She pined over him, cried over him for months. Really made an effort to improve herself, went to the gym a lot, cut her hair, the usual. Dated another guy that she soon broke up with because she found him annoying and clingy, and wasn't over the ex. Now they're together again!

Heard another story today - Guy (let's call him Mark) dated a girl (let's call her Jane) for two years, and she left him. He was devastated, tried to get her back, but nothing worked. Eventually he moved to another state and had no contact with her at all. He briefly dated a different girl, that ended, then he dated a third girl and they had a two and a half year relationship. However, he just wasn't feeling it as much...he never asked her to move in or tried to get serious even though they were together quite a long time. He never truly got over Jane. After things ended with the third girl, he eventually moved back to his home state, reconnected with Jane and they just got married!! Oh, and the second girl he dated is now happily married. The third girl is with an amazing guy for several years now, and they will likely get engaged soon. So everyone got their happy ending.

Just wanted to give this thread a bump and say it's helping me stay positive while I try to get back together with my ex. Here are the stories I have: 1. My friend dated a guy for six years, and he broke up with her. He rebounded, got the rebound pregnant, then doesn't want anything to do with her or the baby...and now, nine months later, is calling up my friend saying he misses her. It may be a bit too late for him at this point and I'm not sure he sounds like a great guy for her anyways...but he still came back to my friend so she COULD reconcile if she wanted to. 2. Another friend cheated on her boyfriend because she was in a bad emotional place; he dumped her and they were apart for almost a year. They never fell out of love with each other, got back together even though it was now an LDR (he had moved, so it was Seattle vs. Virginia), then they made it through a year of long distance, and now they've just moved in together (she moved to him) and are planning to get engaged within the year!! They are stronger than ever and a great hope for me. 3. Guy cheated on his girlfriend, she was so angry and wouldn't speak to him, when they did get back in touch she was hot and cold, flip flopping around, didn't trust him yet, but he never gave up. It took him nine months of trying and rebuilding the trust before she finally agreed to try again. He never gave up on her. They're now engaged and planning the wedding. 4. One of my exes got back together with his ex SIX TIMES and finally proposed to her. Each time they would date other people, but ultimately he kept coming back to her. He actually cheated on me once with her (it's okay though, I'm done with him and care only for the current ex I'm trying to get back ).
