Bennifer is back and everyone is excited about it except for relationship experts. It’s nothing against Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck but they are worried that the stars getting back together after 17 years doesn’t start a trend for all of us non-stars.One where we all think it’s a good idea to dig up a relationship that’s been long dead and try to bring it back to life.
One of the dating coaches hoping to ground all the hopeless romantics of the world is Hayley Quinn. She would like to remind everyone that “it is important not to romanticize getting back with an ex and to remember that if 20 years have passed then they will be a different person to the one you met originally.” So you’re not ‘rekindling’ anything but starting a whole new relationship.
Which is info that you probably could have used a year ago because people were reaching out to their ex long before Bennifer was giving them bad ideas.An estimated 15% of singles texted an ex back between March and August of last year and a quarter of them had an ex hit them up. But fast forward to the present day. Are you seeing a lot of rekindled relationships posting on social media and showing off their success stories?Didn’t think so.
