Perhaps, most of us have gone through a period of their live when they were left heartbroken or themselves harmed that special one. However, there are also ways when both partners feel the need to try one more time. Is it worth it though? Well, there is no definite answer for that - for some couples it works just fine, but others return to their old habits, make the same old mistakes, and eventually part ways for good. This article will outline some of the questions you should ask yourself and your partner first before giving each other a second chance.

Sometimes, when we leave that special person behind, in the days afterwards we often wonder 'was that the right decision?', 'will I be able to never look back?'. And even if it's only for those types of questions I would say that it's worth trying once again. At least you can put your mind to rest and if one of you or both are doing the same mistakes, then you can walk out of the relationship and you will know that there is no coming back.

Another very painful question is 'why it didn't work out the first time?'. Well, unfortunately, in some cases no matter how deep two people love each other their timing is simply not right. Either because of work or other similar types of commitments or because one of them has different short and long term goals and the other is simply not ready to follow him/her. On the other hand, sometimes one of the partners pushes the breakup and thus leaving a trail of misunderstanding and hurt. And the only way to move forward in those situations is if you discuss why you separated the first time. Sometimes it is surprising how common lack of communication could destroy a relationship. Move out cleaning professionals from Melbourne have witnessed couples which moved out and separated because one of the parties could keep up with the home cleaning chores, for example. If you don't want to end up in situations like this, I can only suggest that you discuss your problems openly. Don't make it one-sided discussion, though, because both partners bare certain responsibility.

Can you forgive her/him? This is, perhaps, the hardest question to ask yourself. Giving someone a second chance is usually because you want to try and forgive your partner's shortcoming, to be more accepting and understandable. But both of you must be completely sure that you can forgive each other and to never look back at the moments that you never want to go through again. Once again, talk about your issues, discuss them and only if you can be sure that you can move on and try not to repeat them, then you should try once again.

All in all, although it might be potentially painful, I believe that if two people have loved each other and they have the willingness to work hard in order to become better people, then you should give each other a second chance to be happy!
