Why do people want their exes back?

If you’ve been through a breakup before, you’re definitely not alone. We surveyed 100 men and women who want to get back together with their exes, and here are their top three reasons:

• An astounding 49% stated they want their ex back because they’ve never experienced such love and deep connection.

• 33% claimed that they could see a future with their ex.

• Only 8% wanted an ex back because it hurt too much to be without them.

The remaining 10% of responses included everything from “because he’s stable, responsible and kind” to “I wanted my family back, I love him.”
