Lucy Asked:
“I want to know if getting back with an ex ever works?
I was with my ex for 4 years and we were best friends for 2 years before we dated. The first three years of our relationship were perfect. We got on well, he was a really caring partner and very romantic
We broke up, because he had terrible depression and anxiety (he was hospitalized for a while). He kept breaking up with me and I took him back a couple of times. The third time I thought I should muster the self respect I had left and leave. I didn’t speak to him for 2 years; despite the fact he tried to contact me.
I contacted him about 2 weeks ago and we had coffee. I still missed him and really care about him. I had the best time with him and he seemed like his old self (before he got sick). He has his mental illness under control now and I think we have both matured. We were only 16 when we started going out and we’re 22 now. I just keep wondering if it could work now.
It’s not that I’m desperate or that I just don’t want to be alone. I have had two relationship since we broke up and have dated a number of other guy (I’m seeing a guy right now), but no one seems to understand me like ex.”

Well, there are several things to consider:
#1: Does this guy even WANT you back or is this all just YOU?
#2: If you’ve gone 2 YEARS without him, why do you suddenly need him NOW?
#3: What happens the NEXT time his depression gets out of control?
#4: What about the CURRENT guy you’re seeing? Does HE not matter?
Ask yourself these questions, and then ANSWER them. If all signs still point to yes, then take it SLOW. Don’t rush it, but see how things play out. If things go well, then yeah, you can try again. Good luck.
