I have been wondering about the same thing for some time now. I know that it is possible that we are not meant to be together, but a part of me believes otherwise. We all go through a phase of denial and self pity.

Us is now in the past, but I am so tempted to get back with my ex. My reasons?

We have been together for quite some time, and I feel that it is such a waste if we do not carry on with the relationship and make things work. We have known each other s friends, family, we have spent too much time together that it seems impossible to find a new one that can match and replace all the memories we have made.

I am tempted to get back with my ex because I miss the physical intimacy that we share. Having him close gives me a sense of security, and knowing that he is always there when I need him takes my fears away. Being alone now made me realize how much I needed his presence. I know that I can take care of myself, but I know things would be better if I had him with me. Again.

Seeing other couples together brings back the memories, and the more I am tempted to get back with my ex. Seeing those smiles, the affection and care makes my heart yearn for the times we used to be together. Hearing our song, watching the movies we have gone to together, passing through the places we have been to these all bring back the happy times, and the more I feel the want to be with him again.

I am trying to move on with my life, and I know I can do it. But every time I meet somebody new, I tend to compare him with my ex my ex has become the benchmark that one has to match or surpass. It is like looking for a clone. I know it is unfair. So it is either I find a similar guy, or I get him back. The thought of not finding someone better makes me tempted to get back with my ex.

When I start getting better at moving on, weird things happen. My ex shows up, and wants to be friends. I am ok with being friends. But spending time with him and talking to him the same way makes me want to be more to him than just a friend. I get more tempted to get back with my ex when I find out that he is still unattached, that it still pains him that we are apart . Maybe he is gauging whether or not he will have another chance by fishing information from me directly, as a friend.

Then he finds another girl. It is painful, and it is also challenging. Seeing that I am way better than his new girl makes me feel more tempted to get back with my ex. He deserves the best. I amt he best one for him. That I am sure of.
