This thing to consider before taking him back is actually something that goes hand-in-hand with this past. Has he changed? Do you think that he'll be better?

Frequently asked questions
3. Does Your Family like Him?
While your family might not be the end-all-be-all decision of 'if you take him back', they can influence your decision. You've all seen My Big Fat Greek Wedding right? Her family didn't like him because he wasn't Greek and she had a hard time with that. While it might not be the same thing for you, it is harder to keep a relationship going if your family doesn't like your mate.
4. Do Your Friends like Him?
Another thing to consider before taking him back is your friends. Do you friends hate him? Do they like him? What's their opinion? Typically, your friends will be completely honest with you when you've dumped a guy, whether they really liked him or really hated him. Listen to them girls and ask them their opinion and why. Why do they hate or love him?
5. Do You See It Going Anywhere?
This thing to consider before taking him back is all about you. Do you see the relationship progressing? Is that where you had a problem before? Was he not willing to commit to anything? It could still be the case, so you might want to discuss your future with the guy before you actually commit to him.
6. Can You Picture Yourself Married to Him?
Do you see this being something super long term? Possibly marriage? Do you think that he'll go for that? This is definitely one thing to consider before taking him back. After all, if the relationship is not going to end in marriage, why would you want to be in it? Or – at least some type of commitment.
7. Did He Cheat on You?
Now the big question ladies, did he cheat on you? Did you find out afterward? Did you know he was cheating? This thing to consider before taking him back is absolutely something to think about. If he did cheat on you, do you think that he'll do it again? Has he changed and is willing to commit to just you? Ask yourself that question!
8. How Did the Relationship End?
Finally, how did the relationship end? Was it good, bad or ugly? That all can dictate exactly how any future relationship is going to go. If it ended and you two were still friends, that's great! If it ended bad and you both said some terrible things, that's harder to recover from.
