Maybe now you wish you could go back and change some of how you handled things. If there were a way to pursue making up, would you want to try? If making up were actually possible would you want to know how? Keep reading.
The divorce rate is very, very high. There are many lonely and angry souls walking in your shoes. Some will rush into the next relationship to seek shelter...which is generally a bad idea. The emotion and hurt haunt your waking thoughts and dreams, even if you try to ignore it. This is a time when you should try to look objectively at what went wrong. Now, this can be a hard thing to do without becoming overwhelmed by the emotions that are naturally attached to traumatic events like losing your relationship or losing your marriage. Your emotions will get in the way of trying to get a clear view of things and sometimes send you right back to "square one" in your efforts to see things clearly. But stepping back and thinking about things objectively it is what you need to do before doing anything else. We all heal at our own pace, and usually it is not as fast as we would like.
We are all imperfect and subject to distactions and temptations that can result in major damage to a relationship. Each time a relationship fails, more people find themselves lonely and looking for something to make themselves feel better. These displaced people can sometimes do foolish things that can contribute to the breakup of someone else's relationship. It is a self sustaining trend that only makes the problem bigger, but what can we do about it? This may be a good time to consider making up rather than moving on.
Granted, some relationships are not "fixable." Especially ones that have deteriorated to physical violence and abuse. For safety's sake and the sake of any kids involved, it's probably better to move on and for one or both parties to consider professional counciling. However in many cases a break-up can come from a series of misunderstandings or disagreements between two rational people who have lost their way, and rediscover what it was you loved about one another instead of contributing to the overflowing pool of the lonely.
There's an old saying that the "devil you know is better than the one you don't." In some cases this is true. There's no guarantee your next relationship will work out to be a better one. If your love was lost due to human error with someone who is a worthwhile person, then consider getting past your negative feelings about it and pursuing fixing your relationship by making up.
