The saying “we can still be friends” does not apply in your case as the only place you want your ex to be is in your memories. The far distant ones because, you realize that as much as you might try you can’t completely forget. But what if you had an opportunity to reconnect? What if you could sit down and have a heart to heart with your ex and engage in a session of constructive criticism? Would you even want to? If your ex could tell you where you went wrong in the relationship would you care to know for the sake of the next person you date or for the sake of not repeating the same mistake or habits in your current relationship?

Getting the opinion of an ex is not to give them some kind of elevated importance in your life, it’s to learn more about yourself.” To read the full article be sure to visit Clutch.
