Why do exes come back after a failed relationship?

[Finchie40]

Because they are desperate and think things will be better the second time around , they hold on to the good memories that had with them and pretty much bury the bad ones. Bottom line most people are just dumb Ian’s scared to be alone , so they grasp on to someone they are familiar with. Thinking things will be better. Holding onto an ex is like trying to reheat a slice of Pizza in a microwave , it won’t be the same.

yep, no change exists without finding the individual root emotional issues and doing the hard internal work to make changes and make choices.

They come back because either no one is now available for sex or affection, or they regret leaving you and realize that you really were the best person for them. Doesn't matter though, it's not your problem. As soon as you open that door to take them back they will just leave again later on and always think they can come back.

Leave that door closed.

Some just remember the good bits of the relationship and keep coming back.


But you should know better. You’re exes for a reason.

[DizzyDesii]

I only go back for closure. They come back for another chance claiming they’ve grown up and this and that. Yea well too little too late.

Sometimes it is just that their perspective has changed.
Sometimes they realise that what they thought was intolerable at the time turned out to be far better than the alternatives awaiting them. The world is a horrible wreck of a place and most people only realise just how bad it can get, and conversely how good they had it, once it is too late.

They have nothing better to do. Sometimes people have to make the same mistake on a loop.

They're still not over you and have hopes you feel the same. It's rarely a good idea to get in touch with an ex tho.

Man, like a ship, always wants to return to his home port. We miss those places where we were good

I think it can be because no relationship is perfect, but they began to think that they are as happy as they can be in a relationship because the next relationship was much worse.

[PeachyPie93]

They are scared to be alone. So they are comfortable to go back to what they know.

[Anastacia1989]

Often times people realize they had it good when it’s too late..

[mobiusforniner]

Typically because they realized you were the better option.

[Bricealan]

The grass was not greener?

[bobby_bush_eater]

Because it's familiar

[Whitedog1]

They often remember the “good ole times.”

[In_Trance]

Because they know you're bored available and easy.
