love - nothing rules love, and love rules all things
why did he leave in the first place? if the wife + husband love each other and will try to compromise and work things out, then yeah, take him back..everyone deserves a chance..make sure that the same thing/problem that caused him to leave never occurs again though..try to tolerate and understand each other better..

Yes, I think so. All people make mistakes, including husbands, even including me, or YOU. I would want to try and work things out, perhaps seeing a marriage counselor. Problems are never just one sided.

Maybe eventually....I guess it would depend on how bad the marriage was when he left really...If things were really rocky I'd want a few months to decide if I even wanted to patch it up cause I just might not want to...Plus I have that "you made your bed, you lay in it" type attitude too....I get over ppl pretty damn quick so I probably would be over him at that point (depending on hwo long he was gone...if it was a few weeks I'd be half way there if it was months, forget it, your done LOL)

i think it depends on the time length of when he leaves and wants to come back!! I would also not take him back untill i knew the real reason why he left in the first place and then we would have to both work it out together weather by going to couples therophy or what not but he would really have to commet to making it work!!

I wouldn't take him back because i have been a bad relationship. aIf your married and can't work it out without the other person leaving then it won't ever work. they will always think they can leave when things get rough.

Hi Akeela. You just said HUSBAND. So, if he's your husband, go ahead and take him back. Don't you hurt your self atimes, do you then kill yourself, no. So, accept your husband back in love and later you too can take things over and settle it. Except he's not your husband or it has become a regular practise he refused to give up. Many times, in anger some people take drastic decisions that they regret later. This could just well be one of such so let there be a place for forgiveness and repentance so that there can be healing and progress can be made in the home and family. cheers!

Well... it depends... I guess we all commit mistake. I think we should talk about it...so not to commit the same mistake... I guess I can foirgive him if he moves in with his family and not live with other girl...thats a different story. I just see to it that he has learned his lesson and realize that l;eaving home is not a good solution... If he needs time for himself then he could spend a few days with his family but not bring all his clothes. I guess those happens once in a while.

Hi Akeela. I'm sorry you're having to make this decision, but you're the only one that can decide that, based on what caused it to begin with. I was the one that left my husband after 5 years. Our problem wound up being a huge misunderstanding of the facts involved. The problems did get straightened out while we were seperated, but I sure am glad he decided to take me back. We have gotten better about discussing our problems so it doesn't get to that point again but hubby still has the hurt (of being abandoned by me) to deal with even 18 years later.

Thats kind of hard to say a yes or a no to that question. Not sure what all happen. Did he cheat? Why did he leave in the first place? I would make him build up my trust before taking him back because what if you take him back and he does the samething over again. Make him take you on some dates. See if he really loves you.

More than likely yes I would take him back because sometimes they just need to get away without saying I need some time to think about some things. My dad did the same thing right around my parents 20th wedding anniversary. It wasn't anything major I think he was just going through mid life crisis and thought maybe he needed some time to himself and did move out and they got back together and have been married for over 25 years now. Especially if there are kids involved you don't want to try to explain to your kids I'm not letting daddy move back in because he thought he didn't want to be here but now he does and I don't want to keep wondering. Now if he left because of possibly another girl and he realized that maybe that isn't what he wanted then I would talk to him and explain to him what will happen next time and this will be it.

That depends on you. If you want to give it another chance. I don't know why he left so I cannot judge him. How do you feel about him, do you want to be with him still, and can you forgive him? I had forgiven my boyfriend for cheating I have been told I should not have, I did and we are still together. He makes me happy, and he knows if he hurts me again it will be over with no other chance. So it is up to you and what is in your heart, not what people tell you. All I can say is follow your heart. Good luck.

I would have to yes. Sometimes we have to make a mistake to learn the lesson. Sometimes you don't know what you have until it is gone.

I don't think I would be able to take him back. He left me for a reason and I would be constantly wondering if he would leave me again.
