They might say they realized they made a huge mistake, that nobody understands them the way you do, and that nobody else could ever replace you. They tell you they miss you, that life hasn’t been the same without you, and that they need you back.
Number 2: “I just want to see you one more time. Just one more time. I miss you. I feel like I need closure. Just give me five minutes. Just give me five minutes of your time, and then I’ll be out of your hair.” But then five minutes turn into ten minutes, and then you’re rehashing stuff about the relationship.
