Hi im just wondering how long do you think that you can be broken up with your boyfriend before you can say for sure that you are definitely never getting back together. I broke up with my bf 8 months ago and we arent back together even though i thought we would be by now. Have any people successfully gotten back together after a long period of time being broken up? Thanks

thanks everyone, does anyone have any success stories for getting back together because sometimes it seems like a lost cause and i dont know whether to give up hope.thew thing is neither me or him haver started seeing any other people yet and my gut tells me that he still wants me but i never told him how i feel and i think we are both afraid of getting rejected. its very hard because i dont wanna appear desperate and sad..

I'm in exactly the same predicament as you, madly in love with my ex. He changed his email & mobile number so we couldn't stay in touch and it really hurt. I decided to write to him on two occassions, but he never replied. After nearly 5 years together it really stings my heart, but at least I tried.We've been apart 8 months too. I've finally started dating again, but nothing compares to what I had with my ex and it all seems rather shallow. I just wish we could be together again, so I really sympathise with you...it's awful.

kenny agony auntI think the time span varies greatly between all different people, its impossible to pin it down to a specific time span. Its possible you could get back together after 8 months, or the other end of the scale you could bump into them 5 years later and still get back together.

Goodluck x

Jualsy agony auntThere are no guarantees in relationships. Other people's experiences wouldn't be any good to you, as you decide how to deal with things personally. Everything you do produces a result, so what are you doing to get a result? Nothing? Then change that and do something....you'll get a different result perhaps!
