    I know to most people,it is very difficult,but if only you  know how some things are,and how they were made, you will find out that to get back with your ex is very easy.

      After a little thought I would rather drill holes in my head and pour in acid. But thanks anyway smile

      You must be out of your mind suggesting this... EX is an EX for a reason - why would you try to get into the same nonsense again?

      Idea sounds very stupid to me - I barely got out alive of my last "relationship"; and if I ever want to kill myself, there are more humane ways to do it wink

      You think?  There were reasons why you and your ex broke up.  It may be easy to get back together, but much harder to stay together, especially if you don't attempt to deal with what broke you up in the first place.

      lol  I've got SIX exes, but while the divorce from #6 was in process, I did write a song titled "I'd Rather Die".  A few examples of HOW are included--have somebody shoot me and improve the human race...fall into a pool of chemical toxic waste...before I'd ever again be willing to share living space...with your face...with your face! 

      She's actually a friend, still...sort of.

      Since Pam and I've been married for a while, it'd probably be best to leave it at that. lol

    I'll follow the I rather trend to show our disagreement with the help of Sleep Talkin Man:
    I'd rather peel off my skin and bathe my weeping raw flesh in a bath of vinegar... But that's just my opinion.

    I dont think it's possible. The reason is they became an EX for a reason. They lied, cheated, got bored or you did. The thing is, old habits are hard to break and it may be great in the begining but it will come full circle and you will wonder why you wasted so much time.

    I do not think you can choose your "Love" options smile

    "How to NOT Fall in Love with Your Ex" would be a more helpful topic.  So many people get up the courage to leave a bad relationshop but then later feel lonely and try to come back to the same, unfufilling situation.

      have to go with this one.  when I love someone, there was a reason why and those qualities they hold don't go away.  of course the other side of that is when you and someone break it off, there are also reasons why and those things don't go away either.

      I trend to staying friends with all my exes.  this way I get to enjoy the good parts version and pass on the more negative aspects.

        Can you in fact stay friends with your ex?

        I don't think so, if you had feelings for them, in which case it might be too hard. If there were no feelings - yes, why not?

          I would imagine it depends on who you are and how you love.  There are so many facets to love as a concept and so many different kinds of love. 

          I'm friends with all my exes, some I talk to more than others.  And I've thrown Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners in the past in which two of my exes and my current were all present and got along.

          If you love someone as a friend and a partner, and they love you back that way, it is possible to let go of the partner status, when being together just doesn't work, and keep the friend.  That is what I always try to do and fortunately for me, it usually works both ways with the men I typically choose.

            Well... I just tried to immagine at least a few of my exes having Christmas dinner together... Oh my...

            I think love, crush or anything like this can never be calm or friendly. It's passionate, possessive, provoking, confusing and strong feeling of attraction and denial, spiced up by lust.
            It's normally very hard to resist this cocktail, like an addiction. When it's over, you're overwhelmed by self-sacrifice, hatred and desperation, to a silly degree.
            And though most of the times it takes about 24 hours to clear it all (for me), the impact is sufficient to remember that process for a very, very long time (that's what I've been told).

    For me, the solution could be found in a two-step medical procedure:

    1) Get a lobotomy

    2) Insert previously removed cataracts into my eyes

    Ditto to all previous posts, twice over 'cos I have two of the b_____ds.

    Why on earth does the OP think anyone should want to get back with the scum they have managed to wash out of their lives????

    seriously you'd have to be a complete idiot to fall in love with your ex...

    I'd rather volunteer to be shot by a firing squad than attempt to go down that road..

    ex means EXIT.. meaning going out, never coming back in..

    Such love and friendship is mostly for the movies, not in real life, I have observed. I don't disagree that in a perfect world we would all get along and be supportive of one another. But this ain't no perfect world.

    But the very, very best thing for me to do is to not have either of my exes in my life in any way. It's the only way to unchain us from each other to let go of the bitterness and hatred. Now, after several years, I am civil and cordial to my children's mother. However, we have no contact unless it's about one of the kids, and they are all grown and married adults now. I wish her well, but I don't intend on ever being friends. She is an acquaintance and that's plenty.
