speaking from experience when people do get back together they do so because they feel they had some worth holding on too. My ex boyfriend and I were together for two years before I decided to transfer to another college we decided to have a long distance relationship but that only lasted about two weeks after I left. We broke it off. I decided to transfer back to my old school the next semester and before I was even back for two weeks we had gotten back together but we agreed things would be different and they were for awhile but months into the relationship things turned out to be like they were before, not the good things but the bad things. You see when we were first together it seemed we only lived for each other and that is the greatest feeling in the world, he was my world and I was his nothing else mattered. That feeling never really came back but our old habits of jealously and fighty sure did. After we got back together we lasted about seven months before I decided that I was holding on to something that wasn't there anymore and that hurt me so bad because if things were different I know I could of spent the rest of my life with this person but things weren't different and I had to grow up and move on - without him.
