    I do not love any of my exes. It is all I can do to get rid of the last one. Why would I want him back? That's like putting sour milk back in the fridge, taking it out a week later, and expecting it to somehow be better.

    Yes - she just left me the other day, and I'd go to the ends of the earth, change any little thing about me, do anything to win her back....

    but, alas...... the world doesn't work that way..... all I can do now, is make her happy..... so, as much pain as it brings... that's exactly what I do.

    I am not "in love" with any of my exes. Although, I do care about them. I obviously seen something in them in the first place, and took a lot of time caring about them. Once you get so close to a person, share your daily life, support them, and trust them, you have made a life-long connection. Even though we didn't work out, I still care for them as human beings and maybe more. I no longer "love" them in the girlfriend/boyfriend sense; but I do wish them happiness and health throughout life. Nothing else is civil, unless they did a lot to intentionally damage or hurt me.
    I am now involved in a very happy, and healthy relationship and wouldn't do anything to end it. I have no intentions in trying to get any of my exes back.

    You always have a special place in you heart 4 an ex.....they helped make you who you are today, but on the other hand. I would never try to get him back. If it didnt work the first time why would it work again??

    Yes I do. It started in 2001 and everything was perfect for 4 years. We never argued and always got on really well, but I didn't want kids and she was desperate for them so we agreed to split. I saw her occasionally as a friend, and i mean as a friend, there was no sex, and still got on well. Then she got a new guy so didn't see her for ages then very suddenly, her little Sister died and I was the first person she rang and was by her side for a couple of months 24/7. I thought we'd get back but didn't push it cause obviously it wasn't the right time. She became very depressed and we drifted apart because I felt I was seeing her too much instead of her seeing her family and then she met someone. This was Aug 2005, in March this year she sent me a text saying 'who's number is this ?' and I thought, 'hello'...but knew she knew who's number it was and knew she was with this guy so never replied, I thought she was happy and didn't want to spoil that. Little did I know she was miserable as hell and was only with him for his kids but they split two months ago. We messaged on myspace for a week then met up for coffee, I went round to her's to watch DVD's, she stayed at mine (no sex). When I didn't see her it'd be 20 texts a day and every now and then late at night just saying 'good night' etc. She told me how much she missed me and was glad to be chatting again.

    Now all of a sudden her texts dry up, I've not seen her for 7 days, I asked her if she's ok and she replied saying she's just tired and upset about her Sister and missing the guys kids and 'want's some time to sort her head out'. Which is cool, I don't want to rush her or even ask if she ever thinks we'll get back together because I want to be a friend, a best friend who she can always rely on, especially as she's so down. I guess I'm just scared she'll meet someone as I give her space........what was the question ??? haha

    If I still loved them, chances are that they wouldn't be an ex. Let someone else have them.

    If it was an honest relationship, then sure, it's easy to love an ex -- but as a cherished friend, not a romantic partner.

    If there was dishonesty, then it's impossible to love the person who lied, or misrepresented themselves or their feelings.

    I agree with RICSPRINCESS: when it's over, it's over, and if it didn't work the first time, there's no reason to think it would on the second try -- but I'd add to that by saying "unless something huge has happened to change the people involved -- like falling in love with your high school sweetheart at the 20th reunion -- some passage of time or big event that changes the character and maturity level of the people involved."

    There is no need to repeat a mistake when there are so many opportunities to go out and make NEW mistakes! :) Or to, perhaps, find good love. :)

    Yes I love an ex, but I am not 'In Love' with him. I wish for nothing but happiness for him but have absolutely no desire to venture down the road of getting back together. He will always have a space in my heart but not as a partner. That is in the past (almost 7 years in the past).

    I still love my exes...

    I do not want them back. I would not take them back.

    Both of the male exes I have are completly idiotic jerks.

    You cannot help who you fall for.

    My female ex and I are still friends but we are best apart.


    Love does not go away. If it does, it was not love.

    I have to be honest... my ex from my last relationship I really care about. Its love and all that serious stuff. I'm just afraid to make that big step of going back out again. We do things with each other here and there. I guess there r still somethings holding me back.

    Yes I do love an ex. I have stooped way beneath myself and degraded myself now looking back in trying to get them. It was a hard lesson. It's made me stronger now learning
    When it's time to let go. Just let go.

    If they are an ex, there is a good reason. They are either someone I don't want back, or someone who doesn't want me back. I wouldn't waste my time and irritate them by doing anything to get back together.

    Love her, yes. Get back with her, an absolute no! She has a lot of growing up to do and a plethora of internal problems to take care. She wanted me to be there for her all the time and I was. But she never wanted to face or work on her problems. She stopped talking to me out of anger and jealousy; a regular occurence. She was just so negative and childish. Love her I always will but I will never return to her.

    I loved one... I came as far as getting divorced, which was an indirect result.
    I'm trying now to get over that love...
    I would have gone farther, but she cut relations w/me about two months ago...

    whenever i let go of the person with me, it means that i can't love them the way i loved them before, i might care or talk to them but that's all. i won't let go of the person whom i know i can't manage to get over with, il make sure that when i call quit, it means i really quitted and we can just be friends :) incase they are the one who wants to quit i ask for an explanation and try to make things work again but if we can't do anything to save then its time to accept and move on.. i can say im not a long mourner..

    Totally over two of them and still have something for the last guy. I probably would not get back with him because he was unable to give me what I needed or wanted and what would be the point of putting myself through that again? He has a ton of growing up to do and I hope for his sake he does just that. I wish him well eventhough I definitely have some anger and resentment toward him. In time I will feel nothing. Cannot wait for that day!

    Somewhat, It was a while back and I've done my best to get over him. He was an idiot and brought out the worst in me. No, I'd never get back with him. For one he suddenly got married (yeah, you know what i'm thinking) and then just as suddenly he got divorced.
