why would you want to get an ex back, (you love him) obviously thats not enough reason if you guys broke up.
take it from someone who is one of those people that stay in those relationships hoping the guy will love me the way i want, its been seven years and we shouldve broke up five years ago. we have a baby together and if it wasnt for that i would dump his ass.
you shouldn't have to go out of your way for some guy, and if you have to go out of your way to get him back, hes really not worth it.
