Returning to an ex-partner is the top dating trend prediction for 2023 – with half of Brits who have done so admitting they simply realised the error of their ways after the relationship ended.
Seven in ten single adults admit they have immediately begun dating again following the breakdown of a relationship – only to realise the grass isn't always greener, and want their ex back.
Over a quarter (28%) said they had “too much history” with their old flame to let go entirely, while 51 per cent, of the 1,000 adults polled, cited “unresolved issues” as the main reason for going back.
