A real good friend of mind just gone through a very emotional broke up after some years. He ask me if he should try to get his ex-girl friend back. I told him nature plays this glorious trick on each of us. When we break up with someone, we're angry and hurt and we have this flood of negative emotions. However, over time, we forget all of that pain and only remember the good, happy times. I told him, this is the most dangerous thing there is in rekindling any relationship! The reason is that, if you actually get the relationship back, soon all the old problems come rushing right back because we never fixed them in the first place. I ask mylot friends of there opinion, is this the right answer?

I completely agree with you that once you get together become close..start remembering all negative things of that character...as already broke up...we can't say..how the person is..if he/she could have really loved could have not broke up...If at all broke up also they won't stay for a long time without getting together.breaking up and returning back after a long time saying that i need u don't agree....unless from then he/she could not had any other relationships all these days only thinking of you and living in your memories....and finally coming in touch saying that living for your sake and need your relationship...if then okay...not just like time pass...relationship.....

I definitely think you have given your friend the right answer. It is natural to forget why we broke up, to remember the good times and to feel lonely enough to want to call the ex and beg him to come back. Wrong! Do not do it! I made that mistake once and went out to dinner with my ex. It didn’t even take until dessert for me to recall quite clearly why we separated in the first place!

he should contact his GF ask forgiveness and tell her how much you love her...if she don't answer your call , leave your message in the answering machine...if she returns call and answer you that is fine and good but if she don't then accept the fact that your nah meant for each...then move on...!!!
