Why do people want to get back with their ex's?

well it might seem weird but its hard to understand and comprehend that they dont want you anymore its like a sate of shock and confusion. and you start to think what happened did I do something wrong. and then you get caught up thinking that and you cant stop. and you want them back becuase in your mind you truly loved them despite that they don’t love you or despite that they did something to you that hurt you. I had a friend that was in love with this guy but he cheated on her and had sex with this girl and he always put my friend down I wanted to punch his f*cking teeth out becuase he was lucky to have someone like her. but even tho he did these thing to her she just ignored it she didn’t want to believe what was happing even tho she knew it was true. she was just confused and not wanting to come to sense with reality. she just wanted the old guy she new and thought he was going to go back to the way he was. well what I guess im trying to say is even when they dissed you and don’t want you some people want them back becuase they don’t want to believe what the person said to them was true they want them back becuase they think or at least they want to believe that they still want them back and they still love them it a very weird situation and is complicated but your mind believes w.e. you want it to and its manipulating. I have no idea if this made the slightest bit of sense but I hope helped answer your question little.

I thinkk people back out because they are scared and then release, once they’ve had a break that thay were only hurting themselves by backing away from the situation when they still had feelsing for the person.

that’s not always the case. some people want to get back because they’re both sincere and sorry about what happened and sometimes the breakup didn’t end well and there are still misunderstandings and unsolved problems. not ready to let go yet, that’s all.
