After a breakup, do men really always come back?

Question

After a break up, do men always come back?

SummerSunsets_x · Accepted Answer

It depends on how bad the situation. Some men tend to come back once they realized that they messed up or some don't at all and never come back. That is when you just need to move on, keep yourself from trying to reach out because if he really loved you as much as he says, would leaving even be an option, no it really shouldn't. It really depends on the guy and the situation, i think. Just keep your heart and yourself safe, don't destroy yourself over someone who can just throw you away like trash.

Many do but usually it's out of curiosity... some to see if they can have a hold over you still or to see if they can still get into your pants. But it's never really to get back with you and if it is, it's never for long.

Always is an absolute. And absolutes are rare. No, not every man comes back after a breakup. Some are busy running in the other direction. Some find something better. Some are smart enough to know the good wasn't worth the bad with the person they left behind. But then others are so lonely, insecure, indecisive, and need reassurance so much they'll try to make themselves believe that a disaster will somehow fix itself... this time.

Not always , it depends on what occurred for the relationship to end in the first place , if it was something bad like cheating or lies or betrayal , he more than likely won’t want her back , if he did? He is a desperate bastard and stupid as shit. If the break up was over something minor , then he possibly might try to go back to her

A chance is a wonderful thing & in a relationship some people believe in second chances or even third chances. As for coming back after a breakup it all depends on the circumstances around the breakup or it might depend on other things as well.

Overall probably have a better chance of getting hit by lightning on a submarine but on the other hand lightning can strike if you are not on a submarine as well.

DishLady · Answer

Actually, I have a relative who was always striking out with this one gal (now his wife of 55 years) and she gave up on him till one day she saw him as he was heading out to a trip and he asked how she was doing.. and how her guy was doing… and she said she had just broken up… and they parted for the afternoon…. An hour later he was at her door with flowers and a proposal… he never made his flight (which was to a gal he claims he can’t even remember bc he’s with his wife). SHE remembers all of ithough. 😂

Mypersonalopinion · Answer

After a breakup, I think it's important to take a step back and give yourself time to grieve. A loss is a loss, especially if that person never comes back. But eventually, you have to focus on what truly matters: yourself, your goals and ambitions, the life you're building, and the people who never left your side even when things got bad. Whether he comes back or not, your life can't be put on hold waiting for him.

ManOnFire · Answer

As a guy myself I don't really know. In my experience I would fight to hold on to to the relationship, but once it was over I never went back. However it was the women who later on either tried to come back or wanted to see if there was any opportunity for them to come back. I know in general women stalk their exes and their social media more than men do, so I think they probably try to come back more than we do.

smashleyyy777 · Answer

My answer a month ago would have been no. But my first boyfriend just reached out this past month after 6 years no contact so I’ll say yes they do😹

stevenkelly · Answer

Not always. Some men do come back after a breakup, especially when they realize what they lost or still have feelings, but others move on and never return.

I think the better question is whether they come back with genuine intentions and changed behavior, rather than simply whether they come back. ❤️‍🩹

Anonymous · Answer

Not always. Depends on a number of things. If he’s older he may have wised up so he doesn’t put up w the bs a lot of women plays of she broke up w him then yes he may come back because he wasn’t the one who wanted to end things. Maybe he just wants to try to fuck her again, have her on the side. Maybe he has low self-esteem so it’s hard for him to meet another girl so he may feel as though he won’t be able to meet another girl. I know I never went back to my exes.

Twalli · Answer

Actually usually they don't. Any girl who expects the man to come back a better man or changed man when she breaks up with him is probably going to have it backfire most of the time. First of all, unless he is told what you want changed, he won't address any of them. Secondly, if you dump him, he may go looking for another girl since he sees the relationship as over.

Anonymous · Answer

Not this man. If breaking up was necessary then i do not take women back. Why? If it didn't work out before why would this time be different? I don't want to go through that again. And she shouldn't want to either.

Who was doing the breaking up in your question? There might be your answer. If he leaves you, then you're a choice to him. Do not settle for that (IMHO).

Interstate · Answer

Personally I stay away. Otherwise all you are doing is holding onto something that no longer wants you, and it just makes it more painful and harder to let go in the long run.

Anonymous · Answer

I know I might because if I loved someone I would fight.
If she doesn't want then waiting for the next life 😭.
And yes I have stayed single till my crush got married to someone else.
Most painful moments of my life. Couldnt sleep , eat or do anything, just job and me. Depressed all the time.

OlderAndWiser · Answer

A real man doesn’t quit until he knows it’s over, and then he leaves and never comes back.

XXTruthfulOgrexx · Answer

No, personally, I've never tried to date the same person again after a break up. If we broke up once, why would i attempt to fix something already broken.

Smileygirl2000 · Answer

He came back out of boredom. He's using you as a filler until the woman he wants comes along so he can kick you to the curb. Girl where's your self respect?

Taranis_Thunor · Answer

Absolutely not. Especially if she's hurting his status in some way. Anyone with self respect & dignity will not chase women who take advantage with nothing to offer in return.

Danny_dan92 · Answer

All ex’s come back. But honestly if it didn’t work out the first time there is a pretty high likelihood it won’t ever work out
