Is it ever ok to get back with an ex?

The more I have thought about and interacted with my exes the more I realize why it didn't work.

It can only work if you're both different people than the ones that caused the problems in the first place.

If you're not on similar wavelengths, then love and good intentions just aren't enough.

People will universally say NO, but I think it's up to you.
I would ask why it happened to remind myself.
Some issues can be resolved if both partners are willing to work at .
I personally wouldn't, if they were a serial cheater or abusive

I dunno. If I were single and the opportunity arose, I wouldn't entertain it unless we truly left things on good terms and I felt circumstances had changed enough that we had a real shot of working out the second time. There's only one ex I can even think of that could potentially meet both criteria if we ever crossed paths again, but I'm in a happy relationship with my current partner and I don't foresee us ever being in touch again. I tend to cut my ex-partners out of my life immediately and completely.

That depends entirely why you broke up in the first place.

If it was amicable and you were just moving apart for work or school or something, sure.

If it was over fighting, betrayal and conflict, it's probably a bad idea.

Yes I imagine there are couples that have been able to make it work on a second attempt. I wouldn't give this an absolute no.

@JRVanguard told me once upon a time, that "they were exes for a reason" and it stuck with me and is a constant reminder

It depends on why they’re an "ex". Occasionally people reconnect at a later time in their lives; issues that were a problem have changed or have been resolved.

One can’t count on that happening, but sometimes it does.

Maybe. My wife was pressured so hard that she let one of her exes have one more date. That was it. She stopped taking his calls after that.

Awhile back I asked myself that question, then recalled why I broke up with them to begin with.
So my answer would be "No".

No way. Unless it was just a high-school romance but now you've grown up and decide to get back.

But if its like you get divorced then he or she wants you back, absolutely not. Especially if you guys split on bad terms (for any relationship marriage or just long term commitment).

There's a bit of added irony to this post showing up in my feed. The person who originally asked the robot the question has me blocked, so I went into incognito mode to see who it was, and whoever it is no longer has an account.

My thought? Sometimes it works. Sometimes both people mature enough to make the relationship work the second time around.

If you left each other on good terms, I see nothing wrong with it

I believe the temptation to getting back together with an ex as you always enjoyed the sex. Whatever drove you apart, happened outside the lovemaking. And that probably still exists. outside the passion something isn’t working.
But if neither you were in a committed relationship, I would suggest working on a fuck buddy thing

Nope

depends on a lot of factors I don't feel like it's a Yes or No it's a maybe depending on the circumstances

Depends on whether things have changed between you. I guess time will tell.

In a majority of situations, no, but I’m sure there are some circumstances where it would end up fine.

Sure.

It's always okay. They owned my body once so they can own it again

MY exes? NO.

It must be for some... not me, though.

Probably not....

If you want to, sure it's okay. But it might not be wise.

Really depends on the circumstances and reasoning.

For some people.. not for everyone..

No it isn't

If you one wants to then they can choose to do so

That depends entirely on everything, but probably not in most cases

An ex-president? Like Trump and Mike Pence? Bad idea.

you a glutton for punishment?.

NO
It would be like a dog eating up his vomit...sickening

Depends on how cute her butt is.
