Help! My ex wants me back

When a relationship ends, it’s not always as simple as turning off a light; sometimes there’s still feelings flickering about in the darkness.

In fact, some couples really benefit from some time apart to get a clear view on what they want, before getting back together.

Take the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge (Wills and K-Middy to us). After meeting at St Andrews University around 2002 they broke up in 2007, only to reconcile a year later...and now they're the world's most perfect couple!

But life's not always such a fairy tale, so if your ex has started sending you flirty texts again, or even just bringing up the conversation about you getting back together, what do you do?!

After all, if you mostly had a great relationship, what’s to say you can’t be the next Kate and Wills?

But getting back with an ex can be a mine-field, so for those in the middle of this tricky situation we asked eHarmony’s relationship advice expert Jules Filsell to give us the low-down on what to do if your ex wants you back.
