Have you ever regretted how you just let things end over some petty reason? Was there ever a time in your life when you just wish you could have done things differently? Maybe, just maybe, if you had made wiser decisions, you wouldn’t have had to lose anything dear to you. Maybe, just maybe, you wouldn’t have lost someone special to you.
I get exactly how you feel. We’ve all had that kind of experience. We let ourselves get the better of us and we ended up letting go of someone we would have very much wanted to stay in our lives. But you know what? It’s not like it’s the end of the world. You can still do something to salvage your thinning relationship – especially if it wasn’t too long ago since you’ve parted ways.
You heard that right. There is still definitely a way to get your ex back – no kidding.
But before I start getting your hopes up, there are three conditions that would make rekindling a lost relationship possible: Time, reason, and bond.
If you meet these three conditions, reviving a heart that has grown cold is not impossible. Let’s discuss these three conditions in more detail.
Time
How long was it since the break-up? You see, the likelihood of you and your partner getting back together depends on the time you two have spent apart. There are times too that breakups may not be permanent. See this link: https://www.insider.com/signs-we-will-get-back-together-after-breaking-up-2019-2
If you’ve broken up over two years ago, then there’s a good possibility that one or the other has found someone new in their lives. Also, feelings fade with time and even if you two are available, there’s no telling whether you can rekindle the old romance or not. Ideally, your chances of getting back together are higher when you’ve both just broken up not too long ago.
Then again, this is a case to case basis.
Say, your break-up isn’t the prettiest and you both quit the relationship in very bad terms. It could be that something awry happened or there are just irreconcilable differences at the time. Still, you know for a fact that you’re willing to give your love a second chance. That is just how strongly you feel for the other person. In this case, it would be better to let sufficient time pass before suggesting that you get back together.
People need to heal before they can allow themselves to love again. If you dive in too early and the wound gets cut open unnecessarily, it might ruin your chances of ever getting back together. In the end, timing is a pretty big consideration when it comes to rekindling romances.
Reason
Next up is the reason for the break-up (read more). You can’t just waltz into someone’s life again after breaking their heart in tiny, unrecognizable pieces. You’re either clueless or heartless to do that. Some reasons scar deeper than others so you really have to think about how much you’ve hurt the other person before taking steps to mend your broken relationship.
If you broke up over a petty fight or just because someone doesn’t know how to appease his or her own ego without hurting the other, then you’ve still got a good shot at rekindling your romance. But before you do, it’s important that you figure out where you went wrong and try your very best to prevent the same thing from happening again in the future.
After all, an apology without change is useless. You’ll end up exactly where you are right now, or in an even worse situation, if you get back together half-heartedly.
On the other hand, if the reason for the breakup is too sad, not to mention cruel, then you may want to rethink the whole idea of getting back together. If someone was that important to you, why hurt her in the first place? Or, if you really were that important to someone, why would he hurt you? You deserve a life of happiness and bliss; don’t settle for less.
Bond
Lastly, we have the bond – the bond you shared during the relationship. If your bond is strong and deep enough to overcome even the worst trials, then the possibility of you getting back together is high. It could be that you were both just put in a difficult situation or challenged to make the wrong decision at the time. However, if what you share is something is something genuine, you’ll eventually find your way back to each other.
Again, you can only win your ex back for real if you get the timing right, broke up over a forgivable reason, and if you two share a bond so strong that a break-up is only a minor setback to a life of happiness you two will share.
And remember, apologies without actions are empty. You need to learn from your mistakes and grow through them. That is how you can get back an ex for real.
