Ever gotten back with an ex and ended up being together and married?

Like if you have a lot of history with this person, first loves and all, do you think an ex should stay an ex because they broke your heart? Opinions?

    I'm 52 years old and I've had a lifetime of exes that I never wanted back. When time passes you realize you aren't the same person as you were X number of years ago. When I was 19 I got engaged to a guy and broke up with him when I was 20. Best thing I ever did in my life! Found out later he got married and had four girls. For awhile he was calling me like once a year to say hi and then his marriage fell apart. He got the idea last year we should meet for dinner (we haven't seen each other for like 30 years) to see if we could work it out again. The thought of getting back with him literally made me ill. I had to tell him look, I'm not the same person I was when I was 20. No.

    Even guys I've dated recently (I never got married) I wouldn't take back. One I still love but I know he's never gonna change and it would never work. And he did break my heart and I could never trust him again. But...I still hope life is good for him.

    I dated a guy when I was 18 for about 6 months. A few years later, we got back in touch, and eventually ended up getting married and having a daughter. Eight years after that, he and I are divorced. He should have stayed an ex.

    My best friend married her first love and they broke up for a couple or years before then. It's possible, but not probable. I'd say to consider why they are your ex in the first place before making any new moves, there was obviously a reason for you breaking up.

    i replaced into married as quickly as before my present day marriage of in simple terms approximately 25 years. I placed up with my awful first husband for 7 terrible years and can't think of for a 2d going decrease back to that way of life. My in simple terms sense sorry approximately is that i did no longer divorce him quicker. If I went to all the effort of having a divorce, then why bypass decrease back? you recognize besides as I try this it's going to no longer cause them to greater efficient human beings. Sorry to be so blunt yet you deserve greater efficient. You new life is in simple terms outdoors your door the following day morning :-)

    Exes should stay exes. As warm and confortable as that reunion may be, all of the reasons for the breakup still exist.

    well people change over years and if he was your ex when you were a teen or younger then he has probably changed now so maybe meet up for a coffee or see a movie and consider him a second time :)

    Not yet, but I hope it happens. And yes, usually. They're the ex for a reason.

    It depends on what the reason was for the break up..
