At this stage, if you have a very good ex (who’s still single), kindly reconnect with that person. If the relationship ended because of cheating or abuse (I’m against that), please avoid them for your sanity. When people say “don’t go back to your ex,” let’s be sincere—not all exes are bad. There are good ones, and many differences end relationships, not just cheating and abuse. Don’t go back to start a relationship; go back to be a good friend. If you’re at fault and the ex starts talking about all you did in the past, allow him or her to vent all the pain.
Don’t say a word; when they’re done venting, tell them how sorry you are and ask for forgiveness. If you want that person back, don’t talk about the past. Just focus on the present and what lies in the future. Be there for that person if you weren’t before, especially physically, emotionally, mentally, financially, and spiritually. Let the friendship bring out the best in both parties and build a stronger bond.
That friendship will help you understand each other better and heal you both from any past pain. With time and understanding, the feelings may come back, and you can start a relationship again. Make sure you support each other and grow together. The dating game these days is scary, and what we see online often won’t help us heal but may give us more trauma. I love love, and it’s a beautiful thing.
