Any guys out there or any guys you know have broken up with a girl and later realized the mistake they made in letting a good one go and wanted her back? If there is please tell us about it

It happened to me long ago and I never forgave myself for it to this day. There was A girl that I was absolutely in love with in highschool and for some reason I decided that I was better off single. About two weeks later I realized that I was miserable without her and tried to no avail to get her back. She said I really hurt her by breaking up with her and she never gave me another chance but she would alway make a point of letting me know that she would always love me. I still think about her even to this day.

Same exact thing happened to me man but i actucally started talking to her again and hanging out etc. but nothing ended up coming out of it because she feels i will leave her again.

I haven't been the dumper too often in my life, but the few times I did it, I took the girl back once. She had tremendous anger issues and dumping her was the last thing I could possibly do to get her to confront them. I still cared deeply for her when dumping her and 2-3 weeks later, she came by my house, she had gotten help for her anger issues and so we reconciled. She actually did improve quite a lot. Unfortunately, she ended up dumping me 7 or so months later. This was awhile ago, though.

 

In this situation, I didn't regret the decision to dump her at all. It needed to be done. But, on the other hand, I was very happy that she used the dumping to improve herself and make a good effort to repair a big cause of the break up. So, everything worked out.

 

The other times I dumped I didn't take them back. However, I was younger than 20 at these times. (Don't mean to anger any of the teens on this board) Around the 20 year mark, my views on relationships started to change. Before I was 20, I was looking for a girlfriend, after 20, I would more and more start looking for someone who could be a potential wife. So, my relationships post-20 years old always seemed to have a deeper bond than the previous ones and yes, I could imagine this deeper bond making me rethink my decision to dump (as it did, the one time I dumped someone post-20).
