Things to look at before getting back with your ex

If you’re thinking about breathing new life into a dead relationship, there are certain things you should consider first, according to Huffington Post.

People break up for all kinds of reasons -- everything from an affair to physical or emotional abuse to just not feeling like you have anything in common anymore.

There are no right and wrong reasons to breaking up. Everyone has to weigh what works and doesn’t work for them individually.

What you might not be able to stomach anymore, someone else might not see as a big deal.

Think hard about what it is that broke you up and whether or not it’s something you can either forgive or live with -- because there’s no 100 percent guarantee that it won’t keep happening.

Why do you want to reunite? Is it mostly because he’s putting so much pressure on you or maybe your kids are, or your family is.

This needs to be your decision, not anyone else’s.
