Separtion that lead to reconciliation..

[jwilkins]

Does anyone have any situations you have experienced where your spouse told you that they no longer loved you, but after some time away, they realized that they did in fact love you and wanted to reconcile?

Not spouse but boyfriend. He kicked me out a month before our wedding and then wanted me back six months later. I made him wait another year after that and then started seeing him again. Now we are married.

Trust me when I tell you I didn't wait around moping and crying.

Was kicked out by a man several times before (besides my ex-husband). Each time, after a few weeks/months vanished from his life, he came asking me back ... this cycle repeated a few times. Each time when he asked to come back, he realised something about himself and was determined to be a better partner. In the end, it still didn't work out. He has too much to discover about himself and I just couldn't stay in that loop forever.

Yes...people often say what they don't really mean in the heat of the moment or rather, they do say exactly how they feel at the time and then regret their words later. Giving each other space can help you better understand your love (or loss of love) for someone, but it usually doesn't work out unless both sides are willing to make the necessary changes to prevent the cycle from repeating itself. I think we can still feel love for someone after separation and yet never be able to fully reconcile the relationship. And then, there are those fortunate few who defy the odds and return to each other with a newer sense of purpose and stronger connection than they ever had before.

Agree! It must be effort from both parties. And after a lesson is learnt, let it pass. Do not bring up the old wound in future argument. If my ex really willing to work on us again, I am really willing too that requires a lot of forgiveness, love and courage !!!
