There are a lot of reasons why divorces happen and a lot of reasons people remarry their ex-spouses personally I think they do it because they've become so fed up with dating that they would rather remarry their ex-spouses then go out on another date or they're afraid that nobody else will give them the time of day and they'll die bitter and alone.

My wife and I got married in our early 20's. I will admit I wasn't ready. She loved me a lot and I loved her. I felt that she pushed the relationship more than I did until I gave in with a ring. We have 2 beautiful children and had what I considered was a great life. I was a stupid man and thought being successful in my professional life was enough. It wasn't. Long story short, I neglected her emotionally and she snapped and left me. She loved me and I never recognized the signals, her soft cries of frustration. We went through a brutal and expensive divorce. It took 2 years. All the while she left the door open for me. We would continue to get into terrible fights, but she would return to tell me she loved me. She would break down. I was too stubborn and bitter for her leaving in the first place that I didn't want to acknowledge her feelings. We have both had other unfulfilling relationships since our split. Recently, we spent some time together. I have realized the error of my ways. I now know how dedicated and loving she was and how stupid I was not to appreciate her the same. I put very little work into the marriage and the divorce was the final result. I don't necessarily believe in the spiritual "soulmate", but if I have one, she was it. We have recently been spending a lot of time together. I have expressed my remorse for neglecting our relationship. I didn't know any other way, but I want to change. She has expressed that she wants me back and I want her back. We are taking it slow and hoping for the best. We made one heck of a mess, but have used the experience to grow and become better people. I want to rededicate myself to her and be the man she deserves. Our divorce was so painful and terrible. I felt like I wanted to die at times. I now believe it was the only way for me change and grow as a person. I hope we can make it work this time.

I re-married my ex-husband after 2 years of a very ugly divorce. It was the best decision i have ever made. I learned the hard way that the "grass is not greener". We now respect each other because we know what was, and how far we have come. Provided you DO NOT remind each other how dirty each were in the divorce, its a good thing to re-marry. Go for it.

Yes I would and thinking hard about doing so. But in the process I leave behind my second wife. My first wife and I were married for 16 years and had three children. I remarried but always missed her. She and I became a lot closer just after I married my second wife. I simply do not love my second wife in the same way. I regret my divorce, as does my ex wife, we have a connection I cant have with any other woman.

My husband and I remarried one another too. We had been married almost 28 years when we divorced. We were apart for 6 years. We spent 3 years reconciling and going over what had gone wrong. My husband and I both submitted our future, our hearts and our marriage to Christ in a very deep and real way. We had been Christians our entire marriage, but we are no longer those people from before. We are so very grateful for a second chance! We just celebrated our first anniversary in February and thank God daily for putting our marriage and our family back together! We have two grown children, who are both such a blessing to us. And we absolutely adore their spouses! God has provided and worked a miracle in our family!! It was NOT easy! It was not even fun all the time! But it was so worth it!! My husband and I had to be VERY real with one another as we peeled back layers and layers of hurt and anger. I know a lot of people roll their eyes when we say we married our ex-spouse. But please know, it can be the most wonderful healing and restoring event in your entire life!! Both parties need to be willing to 'own' their part of the problems. And be willing to seek guidance for correcting them. Old habits die hard. Established patterns are ingrained in us without us even realizing it. But with God's help, a lot of humor and an ample amount of love, grace and forgiveness - a marriage can be built which is better, stronger, healthier and far more joyful than ever thought possible!! We are so grateful we took the risk! May God bless any and all of you who are even thinking of remarrying your spouse!
