1. COOL YOUR JETS

COOL YOUR JETS Even though you've already dated, it doesn't mean you need to skip past the initial stages of the relationship. Don't rush into things. Get used to spending time together again before you move in together or get engaged.

2. DON’T VIEW IT as a NEW RELATIONSHIP

DON’T VIEW IT as a NEW RELATIONSHIP He's not a totally different person than the guy you used to date. “It is important for a couple to build on the past relationship, warts and all." That means you should talk about the issues you've had in the past and try to resolve them.

3. BE REAL about YOUR TIME APART

BE REAL about YOUR TIME APART It might hurt to hear, but it's important for you to know what he did during your time apart. Ask him if he dated anyone else or slept with anyone else. And, of course, you should return the favor by telling him what you did.

4. And WHY YOU WANT to GET BACK TOGETHER

And WHY YOU WANT to GET BACK TOGETHER If you only want to be with him, because you're suddenly lonely, then you should resist the urge to talk to him. However, if you two have real reasons for wanting to get back together, it's a sign you should move forward.

If you're looking to engage your partner in intriguing conversations, why not try some hypothetical questions for couples? These fun queries will not only keep the conversation lively but also stimulate deep thoughts and potentially reveal insights about each other's personality and thought processes.

5. COVER OLD ISSUES

COVER OLD ISSUES If you broke up, because he was friends with an ex you didn't like, you need to talk to him about the issue right away. If he's still friends with her, then you're going to have to deal with it. Otherwise, don't date him again.

KNOW WHAT YOU’RE GETTING into He might've changed a little, but he didn't change a lot. That means your relationship will be pretty much the same as it was the first time around. Can you handle that?

Where Thoughts and Opinions Converge

I'm absolutely sure this post is sent from heaven to me. I have thought about getting back with my ex, whom I broke up with 3 months ago. And some hours ago I texted him, just to hear if he was alright. I'll definitely use the guidelines in this post when considering getting back together with him. I've just realized that I can't stop loving him.

I've definitely considered it. My ex and I broke up almost a year ago. But we talked daily and have hung out. We still care for each other tremendously. I'm just not sure if I'm ready to get back into a serious relationship. Although it seems like we are kinda together now. The thought of officially getting back together seems really heavy.

I feel just the same way Aleina does. I hope its worth it again. The problem for us was distance and changes not exactly human flaws hence the I feel the need to try again since those factors are now out of play.

I broke up with like a year ago, but we still talk daily, i ve been seeing someone new now and i tried to move on and it turns out to be.. I m still in love with my ex. I m not sure if he s still in love with me. I m so confused. I m still in love with my ex but i know it is wrong and i dont know what to say to my bf.... It s just complicated. If there s a second chance i would never let him go. Never ever!
