    This is facts..if one can separate themselves from their own emotion and analyze why the other person is reaching out, this is the conclusion they would come to.
    But most people are so caught up in their own feelings, they don’t want to think ‘why’.
    To be ‘wanted’ gives them the dopamine hit, without having to face the hard fact, that until the other person agrees to change and do real work, this will be a revolving door

      Very true. I had to learn the hard way. Each time I responded out of hope. He disappeared for months. When he last contacted me with nostalgic and vulnerable messages and called, I paused and read between the lines : there was nothing saying he wanted me back. It could be the same as before, checking his access to me. So in doubt, I ignored.

      I wrote a draft message to what I might say if I ever reached out (though I would never send it) just to make me feel better, but I know you’ll think it’s pathetic, so here goes:
      Hey (Her name) hope you're doing well. I'm sure this is totally out of the blue, but I wanted to wait until I had moved on from us before reaching out. I've reflected on our relationship, and thought about how things could've been different. How I may have addressed things without turning it into some form of conflict, or putting any sort of doubt in your mind. Our relationship revealed flaws in myself that I hadn't been aware of, it took losing someone I cared about to acknowledge and address my issues. Im currently working on improving that so I don't make the same mistakes in the future. Being stonewalled was very difficult for me to process and now I know why. I'm sure you won't reply and I'm okay with that, I just don't want you to resent me.

      Some people use word "break up" for leverage. I don't. PRIDE is what usually stop people from getting true happiness. If you want to be with the person, and he wants to be with you. You are both willing to work it out, then leave the pride and take the risk. Again, as long as it's not chronic cheating, he didn't get another woman pregnant and he didn't lay a finger on me, I can overlook the mistake. But of course, that's just me.

    This is so important. When someone reaches out to you, make sure they offer you something to make peace and make amends.
    Feelings are not enough. Confronting you with their feelings is just another way of love-bombing. They shower you with feelings so YOU make peace with them, without them needing to take responsibility for their behaviour and correcting themselves.
    This is manipulation. A real apology includes a committed declaration of what they are going to do to change their mistakes. Anything else is smoke and mirrors, and of no worth.

    I disagree. You can still be good friends, even if the romance part hasn't worked out. A change in your relationship status doesn't mean you've stopped caring about your friend, or missing their company, or wishing the best for them going forward.
    It just means you aren't a couple any longer. You're still friends.

      I think he’s talking about when they reach out and want the relationship back, they are not asking to be friends but to be a couple. They just tug at your emotions without addressing what went wrong and wanting to put work into fixing things that caused the breakup.
