Resolved Question

How can you have a second chance with your ex if you don't go and get back with them?

A lot of people says when a relationship finish, you shouldn't contact your ex for 6 months. They are your ex for a reason and if it was meant to be, it will be. But if we are told by most people we should not contact the other person and move on, how do we get the second chance? or will this second chance come by chance even when we don't actively do anything about it? such as trying to get back with them, trying to win them back from their currently gf/bf? (which is what most people do)





I just don't get the logic.



NOTE: It is just a general question. it is not specific for my last relationship.

second chances can't be planned... you have be truly moved on for it to ever work. i've tried getting back together with multiple exes... it just doesn't work. it was too soon, wounds were too fresh. i think it takes years, you have to move on with your entire life. so, the fact that you're asking this... the fact that you're wondering what to "do" to get a girl back, tells me that you're not ready for that second chance. if you move on with your life, date again, love again, but sitll occasionally remember them fondly... then maybe there will be a second chance, if you meet up with them again. if it's meant to be, it will be.

LET IT GO ALREADY. EP and your real life friends are tired of you asking about this relationship. Meet someone else. If you bump into the ex 5 years from now and there's still a spark, that's your second chance.

Just the expression alone of "winning someone back" makes it so sad and desperate.
If they want to be with you, they will be with you.You can´t win anybody back.
Learn what you can from this relationship and........move on.

A second chance isn't always an option for every relationship.

I have a friend who is just consumed by her ex...he never even loved her to begin with...and she couldn't or wouldn't see that...and it was just SO OBVIOUS to everyone else. It's just embarrassing. I just had to tell her yesterday that him and his girlfriend are getting married. She tells me all the time that he is calling her and all this...but I know he's not. Why does she feel she has to lie about this? She wanted so badly for a second chance, but it's never going to happen and she just ends up looking pathetic and desperate. Do you want to look pathetic and desperate? Let it go. Move on.
