Many people know that often our relationships with people do not end even after breaking up.

Some people are constantly trying to find a way to get their ex back, while others, on the contrary, want to forget about this person with all their might.

However, situations when partners get back together after a breakup happen quite often.

Why does this happen?

We forget about the bad

The brain sometimes works in strange ways. Bad memories and clearly negative moments become less vivid and painful. Sometimes we are able to forget about them altogether.

But good events become even better in our memories. As a result, relationships seem almost perfect, which prevents us from evaluating them rationally, experts say.

Self-esteem issues

Sometimes we cannot build relationships with other people simply because we have stopped believing in our own strength and attractiveness.

But we remember that there is a person who was in a relationship with us. Many even believe that no one except their ex is capable of looking at them.

Sometimes it really is the right decision

Don't be categorical that such a decision is always wrong. On the contrary. Sometimes we start a relationship at a time when we are not ready for it. The decision to break up can be impulsive.

Afterwards, people analyze their behavior and think about what they need in life. In this case, they try to return the relationship consciously, because they have reconsidered their priorities.
