Evaluating Relationship Fundamentals

When considering a reconnection with a former partner, it is crucial to assess whether the underlying issues that led to the breakup have been addressed. Time apart can provide clarity, especially when the separation has been significant, such as two years, allowing both individuals to reflect on their past relationship. It's essential to confirm if both partners are truly committed to resolving previous challenges, rather than simply returning out of nostalgia or desperation. Engaging in open conversations about these fundamental changes is necessary to determine if the relationship has a genuine chance of success moving forward.
