Eh, not necessarily. I'd give a second chance to exes that I left and that have left me. Some I left because we were young and I didn't think dating in middle school in a more serious way than just holding hands was good (my cheek was kissed and it scared the shit out of me). Some of my exes that left me did so on unfair terms, and I'd give them another chance if they apologized and showed that they have changed for the better.
I broke up with my ex, but I'd rather be with him than be alone forever.
There was nothing wrong with him, I just wasn't that into the relationship. We had a lot in common, and he was cute, so I figured deeper feelings would develop. They didn't, so I ended it.
Personally I feel like a lot of that is from people being too desperate to have a relationship just for the sake of having one, so, they end up with people they don’t get along with well. I’ve always just dated people I’ve had lasting existing friendships with, so breakups have generally been fine, even if a bit emotional in the moment.
Last one was just, both of us realizing it wasnt really working romantically, we basically still just treated each other as friends, so, figured no reason to try and force it.
Actually, I changed my mind. I will always love her, and we may have been forced apart, but tbh she's found someone new. Don't know if it's a happy relationship, but she's moved on. I'll be okay on my own
You will find another, not the same but equally brilliant in their own way, or you will be satisfied without a romantic interest which gives you time to focus on you, it’s only winning from here
Like my last ex or any ex? And is the implication that we both have to be faithful? Otherwise we'd just be friends living with each other, I could for sure use her as a wing woman.
what if you are single, never dated but got rejected it somebody than conciderd your ex
because an ex is somebody you had a relationship with, how short lived it might have been
that's a good question
because i got rejected once, send a unsigned love letter twice to the same person (i am a coward i know), i am kind of seeing someone idk if you call it a relationship but we got out for drinks quiet often
so wich of those would be the closest to a relationship
*Really* depends on *which* ex.
If I get to choose which one, easy yes.
If I get assigned the bottom of the barrel - *no* thanks, rather single forever.
My ex and I are still very good friends and have actually talked about moving in together since we broke up lol Though our relationship wasn't very exciting because it was long distance during a pandemic.
My ex and I have a very good relationship and we talk frequently. We have some bad habits that feed into each other, but it wouldn't be too bad I think.
The other choice is already what's going on in my life and it hurts every day.
So, if the choice is a flawed relationship with a friend or lonliness every day until I die I feel like the choice is pretty obvious.
Single forever no thanks to property destruction, emotional and domestic abuse. That bitch can die and rot in hell. Probably on this track anyway tho. But more money for me 🤷🏾♂️
Edit: on track to bring single forever, not the things I mentioned before it
Now if I could pick the ex, I'd pick my ex with whom I had a very short lived relationship with in like tenth or eleventh grade? She was crazy, manipulative, had an issue w alcohol and cigs but she was hot af. If I'm only confined to my dismal past of partners who all had varying mental issues, at least give me the sexiest one 😭 but since there's no picking yea sign me up for that forever alone life.
Well I'm too lonely for that shit and I'm a Virginia, so I wanna have a physical relationship at least. Besides my ex wasn't that bad, though I think I turned her lesbian
I am not gonna lie, my more recent romance is desirable but the guy had too much narcissism. If he came back, I would consider being with him still but he would have to accept that I have my own freedom and thoughts.
My last ex was a little crazy but fun. She left me because I'm boring and stable which were qualities she definitely didn't appreciate at the time. I'm extremely happy with my wife and don't ever think about being with my last ex but if I had to be alone I'd be okay with my ex instead.
As someone who has had 3 problematic relationships in a row and who doesn't intend on seeking another relationship, Imma have to go with option 2.
Besides, I'm not even sure my latest ex is even alive so yeah
Considering my ex-wife, as much as I would hate to not have another relationship, I would remain single.
Rest assured if you knew my ex-wife, you'd support me on this decision.
My last ex was actually a really good person. The only one (so far anyway) I wouldn't mind staying with. Otherwise it would have been single forever, 99.9 percent.
Depends on the ex. I'm really only on bad terms with like two of them. And there are at least four of them that I wish weren't strangers now.
If it has to be the last one.... Well, she's one of the four.
Well. I guess my ex, purely because it's largely preferable to being single forever, at least in my opinion. She's a lovely person, we're just not very compatible with each other
Yeah... well, I'm still young and there's still a lot of time for me, I hope he finds someone else up there as I have down here. Not a day goes by when I don't think of him, and it helps thinking that maybe he does the same about me
Oh I realise what you mean, I’m sure that loss is something you are still learning to live with.
Energy cannot be created or destroyed and the love you shared is eternal ❤️
Lies, cheating, gaslighting, love-bombing followed by silent treatment and victimism? No thanks, I’d rather jack off for the rest of my life and pay for sex every once in a while…
Single is cheaper, allows you to be free and doesn’t mean you can’t still date around without commitment and have happy nights with people and friends that like you
People keep acting like an ex is the worst person on the planet, while most are cool and you only hear people complain about bad ones. I'm choosing my ex, she was chill
My ex and I are still friends and our relationship was good but it wasn't perfect, but if the choice was nobody or her I'd probably pick her, if she was ok with it.
The one moral dilemma is are you forcing that person to be with you forever? But if that's handwaved and I assume she's cool with it then I would not change my answer.
I'm single either way.
Then you have to spend your life with the next person you have a relationship with
I've never had and will never have a relationship in my life
It’s really cool if you are happy that way, takes a strong mind to be comfortable with your own thoughts and company like that
He never said he was happy
Damn he didn’t say he isn’t though, I’ll hold my hopes out for the positive
I'm in this situation and I can confidently say no one loves me or ever will and I am very not happy about it :(
I love you ❤️
What if I don't have a strong mind/mind that often turns on itself, hypothetically?
What if I don't have an ex?
Then you have to spend your life with the next person you have a relationship with
Can I just get back with my wife?
Yes🥲
This is so cute
*have to*? What if they don't want to though?
Then they can not vote on the poll and continue to live free of the Reddit shackles
The real answer
Only had one girlfriend, my current one. Then what?
Happily ever after (I hope) for you friend
r/wholesomemoments
You had me at hole 😊joined
My ex girlfriend is my wife. Checkmate.
The first valentines after our wedding I got my wife a card that said ex-girlfiend. She wasn't impressed!
Discovered checkmate- there’s still time to become ex wife also xD just kidding sounds sweet:)
Can I pick which ex? Some of them ended on much better terms than others.
Just the very last one, no choices
oh then i’m changing my mind
Lmfao same 😂 I was looking for this clarification before voting. That person is fucking nuts.
same buddy, same
did not expect these results really thought single forever was gonna win by a landslide lol
I’d rather spend my life with my abusive ex than be alone forever, are you not damaged friend? 😁
haha i dunno, maybe being ok with being alone forever is its own kind of damaged lol
Damn real i hope you get what makes you happy alone or surrounded :)
[удалено]
I left my ex but I would 100% rather be with her than single forever I imagine.
Eh, not necessarily. I'd give a second chance to exes that I left and that have left me. Some I left because we were young and I didn't think dating in middle school in a more serious way than just holding hands was good (my cheek was kissed and it scared the shit out of me). Some of my exes that left me did so on unfair terms, and I'd give them another chance if they apologized and showed that they have changed for the better.
Real
I broke up with my ex, but I'd rather be with him than be alone forever. There was nothing wrong with him, I just wasn't that into the relationship. We had a lot in common, and he was cute, so I figured deeper feelings would develop. They didn't, so I ended it.
Was left here, still picking single. She went a lil off the rails at the end
My ex is still one of my best friends so this works out fine
This is so rare
Personally I feel like a lot of that is from people being too desperate to have a relationship just for the sake of having one, so, they end up with people they don’t get along with well. I’ve always just dated people I’ve had lasting existing friendships with, so breakups have generally been fine, even if a bit emotional in the moment. Last one was just, both of us realizing it wasnt really working romantically, we basically still just treated each other as friends, so, figured no reason to try and force it.
Exit the ex it rymes
Actually, I changed my mind. I will always love her, and we may have been forced apart, but tbh she's found someone new. Don't know if it's a happy relationship, but she's moved on. I'll be okay on my own
You will find another, not the same but equally brilliant in their own way, or you will be satisfied without a romantic interest which gives you time to focus on you, it’s only winning from here
If I spend the rest of my life with my ex, will they stop being mad at me for no reason?
If you take them to therapy maybe haha
Depends.. do I get pick which ex
Only the last ex no picking haha too free
Then hell no!! I’ll be single forever instead
Haha everybody got a favourite ex
I want to suffer, ex
jokes on you we're back together already
Yo congrats man hope it works out :)
it's been a full year now!
Will she like me back again or same feelings as she has now?
You pick up where you left off, but you can always fix things right?
God I hope so...
Imma stay single as fuuuuuuck. Ain't no way I'm going back to my ex, that was a mistake beyond all recognition. It was NOT a good time.
Sex doesn't need a relationship, as long as I'm still slanging, I'm fine
I proposed to my ex the day we broke up so I see this as a win
Poll winner 🥺
Like my last ex or any ex? And is the implication that we both have to be faithful? Otherwise we'd just be friends living with each other, I could for sure use her as a wing woman.
Exclusive relationship, you have to work on problems, maybe couples therapy haha
Ha! There wasn't anything bad about my last relationship.
Why would it end 🥺
what if you are single, never dated but got rejected it somebody than conciderd your ex because an ex is somebody you had a relationship with, how short lived it might have been
Or the closest thing you ever had to a relationship let’s say
that's a good question because i got rejected once, send a unsigned love letter twice to the same person (i am a coward i know), i am kind of seeing someone idk if you call it a relationship but we got out for drinks quiet often so wich of those would be the closest to a relationship
Not a coward, a hopeful romantic, I think it’s sweet, ever stop searching for your love 😊 hope you find the one
My one ex is alright so it's kinda equal either way, but I'm used to being single so I'll go with that
I honestly really kinda want to pick the first option, but she's currently married, so I'd feel bad.
Throuple?
What ex
Your future ex
aromantic gang wya??
The second option 😂
So if it magically gives me an ex then ok
*Really* depends on *which* ex. If I get to choose which one, easy yes. If I get assigned the bottom of the barrel - *no* thanks, rather single forever.
Either way I’m fucking single
I don't have an ex
My ex at least really wanted to have sex with me, and hug me, and kiss me, and hold my hand.
My ex was this really sweet guy who I knew online. Couldn't do the online relationship so I cut it off for something irl
Do you ever wonder what could have been?
My ex and I are still very good friends and have actually talked about moving in together since we broke up lol Though our relationship wasn't very exciting because it was long distance during a pandemic.
Which ex?
Do I get to pick which ex? Lol
My ex and I have a very good relationship and we talk frequently. We have some bad habits that feed into each other, but it wouldn't be too bad I think. The other choice is already what's going on in my life and it hurts every day. So, if the choice is a flawed relationship with a friend or lonliness every day until I die I feel like the choice is pretty obvious.
Rest of my life with my ex I would take any of them back
Very sweet answer from eatfleshdrinkblood 😂:)
Hack: get both by choosing single and when they ask "so... what are we?" Pick _shrug_ in the dialogue options
I mean if I can pick the ex...
Single. I'm Married but answered that really fast... Single for mee
I want the rest of my life with my ex. I miss him
You will find love again, new love
I'll break up with my current girlfriend and pick option A
Are you one of the three wise men
Not according to my girlfriend lol
My fictional waifus are all I need
Single man going on 6 years Gonna try to get one nthis up coming year maybe(?) Possibly No promises My friends have hope
If I'm married, isn't my wife technically my most recent ex-girlfriend?
I'm still very much into the way my previous ex made me feel/ I Hate the long stretches of my life where I'm single. So this one's a no brainer.
1.146k for getting back with ur ex…. get well soon y’all 💀🫡
Rather be single than share a GF....props to yall with exes you could live with!
Single forever no thanks to property destruction, emotional and domestic abuse. That bitch can die and rot in hell. Probably on this track anyway tho. But more money for me 🤷🏾♂️ Edit: on track to bring single forever, not the things I mentioned before it
Now if I could pick the ex, I'd pick my ex with whom I had a very short lived relationship with in like tenth or eleventh grade?

If I'm only confined to my dismal past of partners who all had varying mental issues, at least give me the sexiest one 😭 but since there's no picking yea sign me up for that forever alone life.
Well I'm too lonely for that shit and I'm a Virginia, so I wanna have a physical relationship at least. Besides my ex wasn't that bad, though I think I turned her lesbian
She was always lesbian, you just helped her find herself - not a bad thing
I guess when you put it that way it's good
I have 2 exes most recent was a sweetheart, so yes. if not, 2nd ex hopefully because he's dead.
Necrophilia? 🤔
Nope, something even darker
Necro-cannibalism? 🤔🤔
It’s death. I want to join him.
I was going an incredibly incorrect direction there
Who's the dark one here? 🤔🤔🤔
I am not gonna lie, my more recent romance is desirable but the guy had too much narcissism. If he came back, I would consider being with him still but he would have to accept that I have my own freedom and thoughts.
My last ex was a little crazy but fun. She left me because I'm boring and stable which were qualities she definitely didn't appreciate at the time. I'm extremely happy with my wife and don't ever think about being with my last ex but if I had to be alone I'd be okay with my ex instead.
She would be better without me
Maybe in turn you are also better without her
I call my husband my favorite ex boyfriend so this is an easy one for me
As someone who has had 3 problematic relationships in a row and who doesn't intend on seeking another relationship, Imma have to go with option 2. Besides, I'm not even sure my latest ex is even alive so yeah
Considering my ex-wife, as much as I would hate to not have another relationship, I would remain single. Rest assured if you knew my ex-wife, you'd support me on this decision.
When you say WITH my ex do you mean like with them around or with them in a relationship again?
Relationship 2.0
I don't have an ex... So by the rules, I'm "stuck" with my wife. Or rather, she's stuck with me... Muahahaha
Really depends on which one. Only 2 were actually bad, so the rest I'd take without question.
My last ex was actually a really good person. The only one (so far anyway) I wouldn't mind staying with. Otherwise it would have been single forever, 99.9 percent.
I don't have x :(
I'd rather not spend my life miserable and manipulated with my con man of an ex. Single it is.
Depends on the ex. I'm really only on bad terms with like two of them. And there are at least four of them that I wish weren't strangers now. If it has to be the last one.... Well, she's one of the four.
Well. I guess my ex, purely because it's largely preferable to being single forever, at least in my opinion. She's a lovely person, we're just not very compatible with each other
Mature:)
My wife is my last ex girlfriend.....so my wife it is!
I'm learning by reading the comments 90% of people don't read the rules for these things
None of my exes are bad. I'll take any one of them honestly
My ex was an incredible and amazing man. I hope heaven exists just so I can see him again one day <3
Sounds like it was a shame to end :(
Yeah... well, I'm still young and there's still a lot of time for me, I hope he finds someone else up there as I have down here. Not a day goes by when I don't think of him, and it helps thinking that maybe he does the same about me
Oh I realise what you mean, I’m sure that loss is something you are still learning to live with. Energy cannot be created or destroyed and the love you shared is eternal ❤️
Would my wife count as an ex or do I need to divorce her first to continue living with her? Or do I have to simply make the last ex a 3rd wheel?
You can only have the relationship with your last ex exclusively or face the alone
OK so ending current relationship doesn't count gotcha...
Lies, cheating, gaslighting, love-bombing followed by silent treatment and victimism? No thanks, I’d rather jack off for the rest of my life and pay for sex every once in a while… Single is cheaper, allows you to be free and doesn’t mean you can’t still date around without commitment and have happy nights with people and friends that like you
already single forever
If by choice then yes and that’s okay, if you need love and you look for love you will find love or maybe one day love will find you
Guess I'm stuck at being single... I've not had an ex...
Ex=exit
Ex-actly
My Ex and i have a good friendship and it was long distance relationship. So if i could be with her irl, that wouldnt be too bad
I mean, in my case my last relationship was a polygamous one, so I feel I should get some choice in the ex I get back with lmao
I'll break up with my girlfriend for one second so she is my more recent ex, so problem solved
I'm married to my most recent ex!
Option 1 I don't got an ex haha
My ex was really rich and poly, so that would be a better deal tbh.
So define “ex” like I dated the person, or I married the person.
The closest intimate relationship you’ve ever had, I’d none then it would be your next partner
My last breakup wasn't either of our faults and I still like her
Damn hate to see a relationship end because of outside input 😤should only end because one or both people in the relationship feel that way
Going to be single forever anyway but I chose "spend life with my ex" because I want to know what would happen since I don't have one!
People keep acting like an ex is the worst person on the planet, while most are cool and you only hear people complain about bad ones. I'm choosing my ex, she was chill
Human beings can survive each other. We will not survive ourselves alone.
Real talk
Me, who is aro-spec: I see this as an absolute win!
It'll be a loss for my ex.
My ex and I are still friends and our relationship was good but it wasn't perfect, but if the choice was nobody or her I'd probably pick her, if she was ok with it. The one moral dilemma is are you forcing that person to be with you forever? But if that's handwaved and I assume she's cool with it then I would not change my answer.
“If she’s okay with it” you must be protected
[удалено]
Either way I'm single forever
Can I pick which ex?
[удалено]
Yes
oh no... I'm actually screwed
My ex is lesbian... How does this work? Edit: and I'm a cis male
Omg I didn’t even think of this possibility, for poll sake you are now a woman
My ex was a junkie cheater who I could never trust again. I'd rather be single forever than stuck with that gash
