Is there still hope?

[Typicalti67]

Me and my ex been on and off for a year now, we recently broke things off and been broken up for two months now. I got drunk one night and called him to tell him I still love and miss him and he said he loved and missed me too then I asked if there would be a chance of us getting back together and he said he needed time to think about it. Do you think there’s hopes of us getting back?

Awh sis I feel you, breakups are SO hard. The fact that you both admitted feelings are still there gives me hope y'all could work it out. However, there are a few things to consider:

- You've already broken up and gotten back together multiple times before. That patterns suggests the core issues were never fully resolved.

- He said he needs time to think - not an outright yes. That says to me he may still have reservations or doubts holding him back.

- Getting back together right after a drunk call isn't usually the healthiest way to do it. Emotions were running high in that moment.

My advice would be to give him the space and time he requested. In the meantime, really reflect - what went wrong before, and have you both grown enough to do better now? Once he's had time to think clearly, you could reach out ONE MORE TIME to have an honest conversation about what you both need to do differently to make it work long term. Lay it all out on the line. His response then will tell you whether there's legitimate hope or if it's truly over. I know it's hard sis, but staying hopeful is important - you deserve the real thing! Keep me posted on how it goes 🤞

Even if there is hope , you are best to move on , going back to an ex is one of the stupidest things people do , because it’s a very slim chance it’s going to last. because you both have resentments for each other that those resentments will come back to haunt the both of you , it’s like putting a band aid on a cut , things will see alright for a little bit but eventually that band aid will fall off again. The thing is people that actually love each other and care about each other , do not break up with each other period , they work things out and fix what is broken , they don’t disappear and weigh their options , if you go back to your ex? it’s only going to be for sex but nothing more. So you are pretty much wasting your time thinking things will be back to the way they were before you broke up. You are best to move on and find yourself someone that won’t leave your side

If you’re reaching out and saying those things when you’re drunk, you’re doing it out of desperation. Know the difference between wanting someone vs. not wanting to be alone.

Diving straight into the ocean of love and second chances, it seems like both of you are still swimming in feelings for each other, and that's a good sign for potential reconciliation! 🌊❤️ The fact that he needs time to think it over isn't a red flag; it actually shows he's taking your emotions and the potential of getting back together seriously. Nobody wants to rush back into the sea only to find the tide hasn't changed, right?

Since he’s said he loves and misses you too, that’s your shimmering beacon of hope right there. However, remember, it's also crucial to reflect on why things were rocky in the first place. Getting back together works magic when both parties are clear on what went wrong and are committed to making things right. So, give him the space to think it through but also take this time for some introspection. Are you ready to dive back in, goggles on, to navigate the occasional stormy weather together? If yes, then there’s hope sparkling on the horizon. 🚤💞 Keep the communication open, honest, and devoid of pressure. The best love stories often have a chapter two, so who knows? Yours might just be waiting to be written.

The only hope you have is if you both work to fix the reasons why you broke up in the first place.

depends what the issues were that caused the seperation.
