Who has succeded?

I’d like to hear from anyone that HAS gotten their ex back. What do you think worked?

Also, my ex says (and I believe her) that she does not want to be in a serious relationship but I know she is dating regularly. She prefers exclusive dating but I don’t think she is at that stage yet, but it could happen. Is there a difference between exclusive dating and a serious relationship?

Thanks

I’m willing to bet that most people who HAVE gotten their ex back, do not come around here much anymore.
I had an injury that kept me in bed for three months, and I spent countless hours scouring message boards to hear success stories after the injury. I found almost nothing positive. But I recovered and I don’t post on those boards anymore. The people who did are the ones with complaints/problems. Do you know what I mean?

Yes Quinn, after I posted that, it hit me, just as you said. Duh! LOL
I feel I should stop checking this site, even though the advice is helpful.
It keeps feeding my feelings of loss when what I need to do is let go.
These are such hard things to deal with. My ex acted on anger and cut me loose, I hope she comes around but I can’t do it for her.

I know what you mean. I’ve become a little obsessed with these boards recently.
Right now I feel like I’m in absolute agony. I know that sounds extreme, but it’s how I feel.

I’ve read your story and see you and I have been around about the same amount of time. It is silly that a 40-something man such as myself can’t get based a 6 month relationship. But she is a dynamite lady. I miss her every single day.

I wish you the best in your struggle also.

Having a woman’s perspective always helps. Should I be concerned that she started dating a week after we broke up? She said she is “dating pretty seriously” an old boyfriend, but only admiited to that when she had a few drinks in her, not sure if that is good or bad.

Ideas?
