I suppose you might be wondering how long things can last without getting back together with your spouse, especially when you are hoping for reconciliation. There is no definite time frame when all hope of reconciling is cut-off, and I know this from personal experience. Some people can be apart for many years, and can still get back together again. This happened to my husband and I. We were apart for over 25 years after being boyfriend and girlfriend for a couple of years in our late teens. We met up again, realized that our love for each other had never died and finally got married some twenty-seven years later.

While I believe in second chances even over a long period, this length of time is probably not ideal. The most likely scenario is that your ex will find someone else and move on after some time. And this is what happened with us in those intervening years. There was even a time when we were "between" partners, that had we known we could have got back together but we didn't, and there was definitely a chance that we may never have. So, after you broke up with your ex there is always the possibility that they will meet someone else and this is something that you may need to face and accept.

What if your lover already left you? Here's how to get them back.

So, how long is too long? When is the best time to attempt a reconciliation with your ex? Anytime is possible but there are some times that are better than others. Mostly, soon after the break up is better than later on but not immediately after, give your ex time to work through what just happened so that everything is not so raw.

This has its pros and cons; it may be harder to get back together after some time apart, but on the other hand, it gives both of you time to get over the hurts, and you time to take stock of what happened and begin to take better care of yourself and become better person as a result. As you look at yourself and find out why things went wrong, you can learn how to have a better relationship too. Another thing you need to take on board and think seriously about is whether you really love your ex or not and whether you really want to make another go of it.

Now there is the possibility that your ex will decide during this time apart that they will move on, and that can be hard to accept, but they could also take this time to realize that they too want to be back with you, and then your chances of getting back together are great, and a long-term relationship is something that you can both work on together.

If you find out that your ex has decided to move on, that they do not want to get back together then you will have to come to terms with that, and keep going in the way you had begun after the break up. Keep being a better person than you were before, and you will eventually meet someone who you will love. Going through a break up is painful at the time, but it can end up being the best thing in the long-term.

If during that time apart, you came to the conclusion that the two of you are better off apart then you have saved yourself further heartache by trying to get back together and it all turning to custard again.

The old saying, "absence makes the heart grow fonder," is true and if after a little time apart both of you still don't want to be together anymore, then it was probably the best decision to end the relationship. You cannot find the right person for you if you are still with the wrong person.

Being apart helps to heal relationship wounds and gives both of you time to think objectively about the situation and the reasons for the breakup. Sometimes being apart for a while can help make it easier to forgive each other for mistakes made, and give you time to learn new skills to work through things together.

So, how long can things go without getting back together with your spouse? It depends on a lot of things; especially, how each of you feels about the other and how the reconciliation is handled. If one of you feels pressured by the other and you cannot be respectful and patient with the other person then the relationship may not be in a healthy place to continue, and so there could be good reason for the relationship to end.

Your ex had a lot of pride back when you were dating but all that changed after the breakup. If you want to spot your ex down by the freeway with a sign that says 'will work for one more chance at love' then panhandle these suggestions from us.

Step 1:Why Do You Want That?: If you truly care for your ex, you don't want to see them desperately down on bended knee just praying for one more chance. A healthier option is to chat like adults and come to an agreement on if you should date again but if you must...

Step 2:Be The Puppet Master: If you want to be in control of your ex's actions, you've got to become the puppet master. If you sometimes say yes to hang out with them but say you have other things to do another time, they'll be confused. If you keep them on their toes they'll eventually get frustrated and beg for things to be back like they were.

What if your lover already left you? Here's how to get them back.

Step 3:A Beggar Can't Be A Chooser: A beggar can't necessarily be a chooser but the person they're begging to can. Even if your ex is quenching their desires to have you back in their life remember that you have a choice too. Perhaps now is the best time to see other people, if only to truly know if you want your ex back.

Step 4:Be An Equal: Even though your goal is to get your ex begging to get you back, step up and tell them to pull it together. Explain to them that you just want some time apart for now and it will ironically have them begging harder to get you back.

Step 5:Grow While Apart, Together: While you're apart, you should try to grow your personality. People can get locked down and stuck in a rut when dating somebody for a long time and now that you're single it's a perfect time to expand your horizons. If your ex is spending their time positively as well, you'll find out you'll have more to talk about if you do get back together.

Step 6:Show Them The Finish Line: It's easy to get motivated to finish the lawn if you've got one swipe to take with a riding mower but if you have to hand push 4 acres it seems a daunting task. Show your ex that there's a light at the end of the tunnel and they'll step up their game for the final push.

Step 7:Unset The Stone: No matter what happens, whether your ex completely blows you off or they stalk your house every night, remember that nothing is set in stone. If your first few attempts at getting them to want you back don't work, go back to the classroom and alter your plan.

Besides getting buddy-buddy with the guy who runs the fortune cookie message factory or the 'tiny hearts with sayings' warehouse operator, there are ways to tell an ex that you still love them. Before you lay it on the line, put on some Triumph and lay our message on your line.

Step 1: With Trepidation: Like we said, this isn't necessarily something that you need to rush in to. Gage your ex's feelings and monitor their current situation. If you guys are getting along good now, a profession of love might only freak them out and push them farther away.

Step 2: With Timing: Unlike Doc Brown and Marty McFly trying to time the lightning strike on the clock tower with a time porthole opening up, there are no exact moments for you to pull off your love ballad. Only you will know when the time is right and if even you aren't positive try and get closer to certain to avoid the hurting.

Step 3: Should You?: Why do you feel the need to tell an ex that you still love them? Are they married with kids now? Did you just suddenly have this feeling or has it been festering for weeks, months, years? Before you take the big plunge, make sure you have an honest and positive answer for all these questions and more.

Step 4: Drop Hints First: You might want to slowly creep into this adventure instead of diving head first. You don't need to necessarily come right out and say 'I Love You' as perhaps you should see if they want to have coffee first, or better yet, will respond to your Facebook messages.

Step 5: See If They'll Go First: If your ex agrees to reconnect, back off a bit and see if they'll spill the beans first. This might seem like kind of a wimp move but if they start going on about how they're glad you can be friends and don't give any inkling that they want a relationship with you, it could save some awkwardness.

What if your lover already left you? Here's how to get them back.

Step 6: You're Just Letting Them Know: You can tell your ex you love them in ways that aren't dramatic like the ending of a John Hughes movie. Tell them that you just wanted them to know and you don't expect anything special back, it's just a huge burden off your chest and you thank them for listening.

Step 7: You Can't Expect It Back: The key to telling them that you don't expect anything back is to truly not expect any return on your investment. The truth is that maybe the feeling has passed and if they had a tiny heart that read 'I'm just not into you' they'd give it to you. Don't fret though because now you can go on with your life knowing that you gave it a shot.
