I've had the opportunity, but we seem so different now. =/

well, it's not much for us, but my bf & i broke up, spent a yr apart, then got back together. we've been together ever since.

Right now I'm kind of going through this kind of thing. My husband and I got married about two months after graduating from high school. We broke up over a year ago, after three years of marriage, but now we're kind of talking about getting back together. But I don't know. He seems to have changed so much in the last year. And so have I. I don't like him as much as I did when we were younger.

I met mine when I was 16. We dated; broke up. Then when I was 18 he came back to town....the rest is history I guess! (28 years later we are still together!)

My first love was a guy who was way too similar to me. We never dated, never did so much as hold hands. We sparred and fought and argued a lot, and stopped talking for about six months, once. After about 1.5-2 years I finally realized nothing was ever going to happen and got over him. We dropped out of contact for a while and went on with our lives. He graduated college and I moved in with my boyfriend. We got back into contact, and in a fit of depression, he told me, the only person he could talk to at the time, a very sensitive semi-secret that explained many things about our earlier interactions. We're friends again, now. I know we'll never be anything more, and I'm ok with that, and I think he is, too. We still argue.

My partner and I haven't ever broken up we've been together for 5 years. If something was bad enough for us to break up then I doubt we'd get back. We've always tried to resolve problems before they get bad, but I really couldn't live without him! lol Now if we actually broke up it would be over cheating and both of us are strongly against that, but if he did I'd never get back with him.


Ook sorry about that, I misunderstood that & got into a laughing fit over here so I missed that one by a long shot!

My first love wasn't REAL love, but I was IN love and it was a nightmare! He used me, treated me like complete trash & I just thought I didn't deserve better so I didn't really stand up for myself. Finally we broke up for the millionth time & I found my current partner I realized I COULD be treated very good & only 2 weeks after my current partner and I got together the douche bag called me begging to get back with me again. That was the last of him! I'd finally found someone good and that's all it took for me.

Thanks to all of you for your comments. I'am 28 and have only been single for 5 months since I was 14.I asked this question because my first love was my first everything.We had always kept in contact through all the years apart.We are going on 7 years and 2 kids later this time.It's just sad that after all this time that we are not very compatible

Well we spent a year apart and are back together but things still dont seem to work i dont know why we keep trying..hmmmm

My husband and I dated for about 9 months when I was a sophomore and he was a junior in high school. We ended up breaking up because he told me he wanted to spend the rest of his life with me and at 15, that scared the crap out of me. That was in 2003 when we broke up. After a few years we managed to become friends again, and in January of 2009 when he left a girlfriend that was horrible to and for him, we got back together. We've been back together about 2 1/2 years now, and married almost 6 months.

You couldn't pay me to get back together with me "first love."

My first love and I weren't allowed to date because he's a couple years older than me. I met him 9 years ago and a few years after dating we became close and fell in love even though we couldn't actually be together. That was hard after awhile so we drifted apart but stayed in touch. Then about a year and a half ago we started seeing each other more and got to be together finally We're happier than ever together

Thanks for all your responses.Also congrats to all of you whom have been on the faverable end of this topic.I wish mine would have been up front and honest about who he grew up to be.I just find him to be rather selfish ,which for me is hard to live with.I'm not a selfish person and have never been.I have had to teach myself to think about me once and a while,and I still feel guilty when I do.So alot of the issues we have have to do with clashing personalities.

my first love and i were together for a couple months then we got back together. then we were done for over a year. it was an interesting experience for us both
