Should I get back together with my ex?
The eternal question! We asked relationship coach Michelle Jacoby what she thought, and according to her, "Sometimes a second chance can work."[1]
Jacoby stresses that it's sort of a case-by-case situation: "There's always a reason why you broke up in the first place. So, unless something's going to be significantly different, what's the point? But if you feel like something will be significantly different, then [it could be worth it]."[2]
If you want to give things another go, she adds, "Let [your ex] know how you feel." But, she cautions, don't just jump in blindly: "I'm a big believer in paying close attention to the reason why you broke up in the first place, because it's very easy to look back and just focus solely on the good things and forget all the hard things.... [Figure] out what the issues were in the relationship and [address] them in a way that's constructive.... You can't just sweep it under the rug and hope things are going to change. You have to make sure that they change in order to have a different outcome."[3]
