Just curious if anyone here has ever gotten back with their ex partner and made things work.. It was a mutual split the first time, work commitments caused us to never see each other |

That mean you're seeing each other again? Really hope it works out for you both.
I've often said you need to split up twice before it's actually done. |

Didn't work first time due to work commitments and hardly ever getting to see each other, both of us have new jobs now |

It depends on the circumstances.
If you've fell out of love ,drifted apart then I personally don't believe that can be fixed.
I know when children are involved you both want to make it right for they sake,however you'd both make yourselves unhappy in a loveless marriage/relationship...and as the kids get older they'll sense the atmosphere.
But at the end of the day I'm no counsellor so maybe what I say means nothing at all. |

"See that's the thing, I don't think we did fall out of love.. It was pretty much all down to us never being around each other "
life can get in the way sometimes so if you give it another go you can be prepared this time round and make time for each other learn from the past..good luck and I hope it works for you. |

"My Mum & Dad were divorced for 11 years and then got re-married to each other
They're now in the 34th year of their second marriage"
We have a similar story. Although we never quite got divorced, we split up for a while and thought it was over because we had just drifted too far apart. We started to put things back together again after some unexpected sex one night when I went to visit the kids and put them to bed.
We went to counselling and started genuinely talking to each other, whether or not it hurt at the time.
We put things back together slowly and we’ll have been married 10 years next year. Maybe the odds aren’t with you, but it can and does work out for some |

Yes. I got back with mine and we are better than ever. We remained really close friends while we were separated though. I now know nothing will split us up as I never want to think of my life without him in it |

Never but that doesn't mean it won't work for you |
