Would a type 3 ever take back an ex?
I'm a type 5 woman. She waited for me to be ready, but I was 3 weeks too late. She felt stuck, and deserved more than I was giving her (we were broken up and I was trying to maintain boundaries, but that's how she felt. She was trying when I wasn't. Because we weren't supposed to be).
We were broken up so I could figure some things out regarding feelings in relationship. No big issues or fights. If anything, she didn't communicate with me her feelings. And I withdrew to figure out my feelings.
Anyway, I've had my breakthrough. Am starting emdr therapy next week to become more present in and connected to myself. Also, needed to increase my adhd dose 😅
She wouldn't go to couples counseling. She was burned out. If I were to reach out to her in a number of months or something after I've grown and completed a to-do list of sorts... would it even be of any use? Would it be more effective to have a convo about trying again or just start talking and interacting so she can see the growth? Or would it not matter?
