With Pain Comes The Truth: What Your Ex’s Behavior Reveals About Him
Does he suddenly want to communicate?
Does the man who never wanted to discuss issues, and would leave the house or shut down anytime you tried to have a real conversation suddenly want to talk? Is he suddenly willing to go to couples counseling? And do whatever it is you say? Well sure he does! Everybody has that burst of energy when they’re dumped and realize, “Oh crap! I guess I can’t behave the way I was and still keep a girlfriend.” But that burst of energy doesn’t last. This is a man who is only just beginning to understand what it means to be a partner, and what a large responsibility that is. It may seem ok and even exciting to be a “good boyfriend” for a few weeks if you take him back, but it’s not in his bones yet to be a good partner for the long run. He’ll fall back into his old ways.
