Would you ever take someone back? My mother always says an ex is an ex for a reason. He has been crossed off the list for a reason. A valid one. What happens when you are struggling between loneliness and longing for the way things used to be. Those sweet, tender kisses or his big strong hands carrying you in his arms. When you felt like nothing could ever make you part. He made you feel so beautiful. He was so loving, kind and caring. Of course at that point you were in the honeymoon phase. The phase prior to the reality phase when his/her true colors are revealed. During that phase his/her motives are revealed and that down to earth personality may actually be harboring a monster underneath. I agree that there are some cases where you can take someone back because as you know there are exceptions to every rule. But I caution you against making an exception the replacement of the rule. But there is one case in particular where you do not take someone back. When the hands that hold that warm embrace turns into the hands that pummel your face. That is an indefnite case of a dealbreaker. Abuse should not be tolerated in any form. If they love you they will not want to harm you. I do not want someone to love me to death. Granted I have been single for a number of years and truly miss the happiness you share with a companion you truly care about and who cares about you. But I have gotten to the point where settling is not an option. I have developed an all or nothing mentality and refuse to tolerate anything less than the best.
