Okay, the thing is we broke up with my partner half a year ago and now we are thinking about getting back together. I was wondering if there is anyone who has got back with their ex's and would have some insight of the matter. Is it ever worth it? Does it ever work out well? Is there a way to make it work? What should we take into consideration before getting into a conclusion (of whether to get back together or not)? What kind of things we should discuss before we get into it?
I dunno. Just tell me if you have ever gotten back together with an ex and how it worked out. What do you think you could have done to make it work out (better)?
I want to hear some stories about this and what getting back together resulted to.

Depends on the break-up.
Do you know what went wrong?
Have things changed?
Why are you getting back together?
I'm not saying it can't work but only if all the issues from the past can be resolved.

Not gotten back together with my ex.
Generally, someone is your ex for a reason. And if both of you haven't dramatically changed, the same problems that caused you to break up are usually still there.
It's not impossible. But of the dozen or so times I've seen exes get back together (both myself and friends) it's worked out once. And that took over half a decade to work out.

I just got back together with my ex after half a year. Uhm, then a month later we broke up again.
things were better but we were still having the same issues we used to have. Our break up also went almost exactly the same as last time.
I don't know. It was a confortable month with nice sex. but then the week after I really suffered.
So it's up to you. do you want to suffer again?

>same issues
Out of curiousity, what were those issues?

You really need to communicate the reason(s) why you broke up. Are these reasons things you can both change and willing to change? If the answer is yes to both then go for it. If one of them is a no, then don't do it.

I know of two cases where it did work out. Both were cheating related, the couples took time off, like months, but got back together eventually. Both couples are together now, married for over a decade each and have children. They worked on the stuff that caused the shit to happen, in one case the guy was neglecting his gf so much she pretty much cheated to get his attention, so when he almost lost her he changed his ways.
