What about Carrie Bradshaw and Mr. Big? Didn't they spend 10 years breaking up and getting back together, only to end up together? They both had other relationships, but they paled in comparison. Something always brought them back to each other.
The worst is when you break up with someone and then you run into them while you're out on a date, or worse THEY ARE! Talk about your stomach falling on the floor!! Boy does that suck.... Sometimes that is exactly what it takes for you to realize how you really feel. You may want them back, or you may realize that it's just not meant to be.
Isn't that what dating is all about? Meeting different people to see which one "fits"? Aren't we all just looking for our "brand"?
For anyone who has ever been in an on again/off again relationship, or thinks there are some things that just are what they are and there's nothing you can do about it. Here's a little true story for you...
A close friend of mine, gets divorced and at the time her kids are 7 and 10. She reconnects with a guy friend from high school who she sort of dated, but it was never anything serious. Anyway, he's never been married, and although they like each other he doesn't think he can be "step daddy" to her two kids. They break up and get back together five or six times, she cries endless tears and is heart broken. What can she do? Get rid of her kids? The situation is what it is, she comes with two kids. In time, he realized that he loved her and as he got to know her kids, he fell in love with them too. They have now been married for 3 years, he is GREAT with her kids and she's pregnant with twins at 45!!! OK, so moral of the story is....YOU NEVER KNOW!!
It's not over till the Fat Lady Sings!!!
