In a relationship? No. there's a reason we broke up/divorced/went our separate ways & they are still valid. Besides, I can't be in a relationship with someone I can't trust.
As friends? Maybe. Depends on why we separated originally.
Shut that door and keep it locked under most circumstances—if you broke up, there’s probably a reason. An exception would be if you broke up due to distance or some other reason where you thought you had to.
If your having problems in the beginning and things go south, getting back together will not change anything at all. It may be good for a short time, but things will return to what the relationship was when it ended. Time to move forward.
I did the mistake after my first relationship. I leaved the door open, she came, drank the bar empty every time and went back to her emotional supporter that I never could be.
You wouldn’t break up with someone and someone wouldn’t break up with you if you guys could last as a couple. The door gets shut completely. We would break up for a reason.
it would really depend on their actual relationship and how was the breakup (as in if it was a bad breakup or a gentle one, like they grew apart slightly).
No, with the exception that I will if the breakup was due to circumstances beyond our control. Like we meet, but she is already scheduled to attend grad school far away.
If it was a rough break up then of course not but if it was amicable and we just grew apart I think it’s ok to keep the door open for occasional hook ups after u break up if u still talk on occasion

You must not know about me

Matter of fact, he'll be here in a minute. Baybaayyyyyy

My exes are exes for a reason. I devote myself to my next partner. If I see my ex in public I will be polite, but, that's it.
No. Never have I ever gotten back with an ex. Whether it ended by my doing or their’s. The end has always been the end.
I can't come back, because then I'm no longer fully invested, and I simply fear for WHEN she leaves again.
it would really depend on their actual relationship and how was the breakup (as in if it was a bad breakup or a gentle one, like they grew apart slightly).
it depends if the person cheated or not or if it was a mutual breakup on good terms
To friendship? Absolutely.
To a relationship? No.
I have with my exes but one moved to Poland and the other went to university so both were break ups to avoid the inevitably doomed LDR
Depends on the situation. Although I have never gone back to dating an ex.
Probably best to shut the door but there are certain scenarios that would be understandable

In communication I shut the door completely. But in mt heart there is a small open door
Not if they broke up with me. One strike you're out. You made your decision now you have to live with it.
If it was a rough break up then of course not but if it was amicable and we just grew apart I think it’s ok to keep the door open for occasional hook ups after u break up if u still talk on occasion
I don't even know why anyone would pick anything other than"it depends"
Though I guess you could get fucked over, that is totally a realistic scenario
