Admit it, ladies! We are emotional fools. We are not stereotyping here, but more often than not we can be a bit too forgiving, without realising how this can affect us in return. We give our all to love and put our heart and soul in it. In fact, we become so blind in love that we often end up ignoring the things that hurt our self-worth and dignity. As a result, we end up making some really stupid decisions, like getting back together with our exes. You need to understand, if you couldn’t make it work the first time around, maybe the second time won’t help. Here are a few legit reasons why getting back with your ex is the worst idea ever, especially if he’s done these things:
1. He cheated on you
Some mistakes should never be forgiven and cheating is one of those grave mistakes. His sorry is never enough. Remember, if he’s cheated on you once, he won’t think twice about doing it again. It happens only in those over-dramatic daily soaps we gorge on, where the man conveniently cheats on his woman, comes back apologizing with tears rolling down his cheeks, and the woman gives in. How? Most importantly, why? Once a cheater, always a cheater.
2. He questioned your character
If your ex has ever questioned your character and called you names, you should never ever think about getting back with him, no matter what. Nothing should be more important to you than your self worth and dignity; and if he messed with that–no explanation can ever justify his actions.
3. He violated your consent or forced you in bed
Has this ever happened to you? Did he ever try to force you in bed to prove that he’s superior? Did he ever ignore your “no” and continued to satisfy himself? The world is filled with such men and if you have encountered one and managed to escape him, there’s no way you should even think about getting back with him. NO is a NO! Your partner should respect your consent always.
4. He was always indifferent
If your ex has been indifferent towards you and never really paid attention to what you want, your needs, and your opinions–that’s reason enough to never think of going back to him. If your partner didn’t care about your needs, why was he even in a relationship with you? Think about it! Probably, if you think really hard, you will get your answer.
