I recently got back together with my x-boyfriend

I am just curious how well it works out the second time around -

I dated him for half a year and we broke up and recenlty became friends

we didn't talk for almost 7 months - we have been seeing each other 2 to 3 times a week for going on 4 weeks now he has learned from past mistakes and we are trying to foucus on not making the same mistake.... I really get scared that it will go back to the same way

I just wanted some feed back on people who have got back together with there x's --keep in mind we really do not fight we get along very well - and he admits he was wrong and he really screwed up by letting me go.....

ive gotten back with ex-s and it didnt work out - the guy i went back to recently - we never broke up - he just went back to school and called me when he was in town again...
i kinda just lose my feelings for my ex-s but then again - everyone is different.

Read my post below for "drink with ex *UPDATE*...we broke up and got back together and then broke up again. it really depends on how soon you get back together and how "ready" you are to take on the relationship again. With my relationship, we did not give it enough time, only a month passed before we got back together which hardly is long enough. We are friends now and only time will tell. I must tell you though, the hurt was even worse the second time we broke up...I do not regret getting back together with my ex, but I regret doing it so soon.

ITs been a year and I would think we both would of learned from our mistakes but, sometimes I wonder ------ I would image that much time would help you grow

It is difficult for exes to make a relationship work the 2nd time around but not impossible.
