Was with my girlfriend for about a year and a half when huge problems came and basically we had a few months of real, true, awful, terrible hell (we were sort of together through the hell, kept trying to make it work, then splitting etc. etc.) and I was well and truly ready to throw the towel in, so we did. Anyway we got back together after a few weeks and we both promised to try harder (this was about 3 months ago). There were 1 or 2 initial arguments but now I've been thoroughly happy for 3 months and things are great. Maybe we just needed the few weeks apart. Anyway, it's easy to make it happen again if she is the girl for you. I knew this one was the girl for me and that's the only reason I tried again, not to rekindle old memories, or 'cos there was nothing else on, I knew this was the girl for me so I agreed to try again and obviously it worked.
