even after they met somebody else really soon after the relationship ended? Have you ever got back with an ex?

Not got back together but my ex tried getting me back when I discovered she had been cheating and got pregnant by him.she tried her best to get me back when it all went wrong,I took no satisfaction from the fact he was a horrible narcissist who picks on women and children

But for me cheating is the ultimate betrayal,but I understand some do to keep the family together if you have children I even thought about it but even children will pick up on the animosity and lack of trust.

It would be a no from me.never forgive the ultimate betrayal

I have a ex fwb that keeps coming back into my life. Every time I run into her, it’s always trouble. It doesn’t matter if she’s in a relationship or if I’m in a relationship she’ll make my life a miserable hell. Long story short, it always ends up with us in a hot mess.

Yes,

1 month after he stormed out and left me and our dc. He was also very newly seeing someone else at that time. I let him stay over (nothing happened) but then came to my senses and kicked him out the next day.

12 months later, he had a health scare and asked to come back. I said no. I'd realised I was so much happier alone. He was still seeing his girlfriend and has stayed with her since (10 years).

It's very rarely worth getting back with an ex!

Edit: just realised it's an old thread

Yeah, but this girl is nothing but trouble. It doesn’t seem no matter how hard I try to avoid getting involved with her. She somehow manages to lure me back to her. Especially the one time I ran into her at Walmart lol

I’m a great believer that an ex is an ex for a good reason. Never ever go back.
