What The Coming Back Of Your EX Truly Means

By Costly Oma.

Hanging broken love symbol with the word  ex written on it.

"Sometimes your EX comes back around to check if you are still stupid. Sometimes your boyfriend comes back around to check if you are still stupid."

Those statements above or the statements that seemed like those ones above have been around for a long time now and I'm sure that social media is housing quite a lot of such statements presently.

I've never quite agreed with any of such statements from the start but I really did not want to say anything about it because as far as I'm concerned, people are subject to having their own opinion about things as such.

Surprisingly, the long-overdue opinion I didn't want to share was triggered by a post from someone I thought to think differently on the subject. I've not met this person before but we have been following each other's activities for quite some time and I was surprised to visit this person's wall on this day and be greeted with "Sometimes your EX comes back around to check if you are still stupid".

When I saw that, I first of all say thank God it says sometimes and not all the time even though I disagree with the sometimes also.

At that point, I know I have to pen down what I think about the statements. I know that you may have your own opinion on the matter so I indulge you to use the comment box below to state what you think about what I'm going to say.


Here Is What I Think About The Statements.

Firstly, only stupid people hang around stupid people. That is to say, the boyfriend or girlfriend that come back around to check the stupidity of their so-called EX is also as stupid. Birds of a feather flock together they say. The only possible coexistence of such people is when one person is smartly using the stupid person.

Secondly, I think that the one coming is the one that left the relationship in the first place because the only person that can come back is the one that left. The one that didn’t leave will just be there whether waiting or not. My point in this is, No one who has an opportunity to hang around someone he uses, easily let go of that person. 

This explains why our politicians don’t always want to let go of their political office. If the power is given to them, they would want to remain there in perpetuity. This doesn't matter whether the people want them to leave or not. This means that, no matter how we look at it, almost everyone is in what they are into because of their personal gain. 

Another point to this is, can any girl let a sugar daddy she is using to pay her bills go easily? The answer is NO or can a Gigolo let a sugar mummy he is using to step up in life go so easily? The answer is still NO. People don't easily let go of someone they are using to gain something.

My point in all of this above insight is to say. Most people come back to check out their EXs to see if their present state is better for them to breed something tangible because, perhaps, when they first started the relationship, they actually wished something good will sprout from it. They left when they lost hope of something better coming out from it.

One truth about women I find to be true is this and I quote, "not that women grow more patient as they get older, it is just that women grow tired of the unnecessary drama they put up as they grow older."

Most guys come back to their old relationships because they want to check if the unnecessary drama is reduced so they can work something better out. And I believe that most girls go back to their relationships for similar reasons too.

Now, to digress a little, I must say that there are several reasons people go back to their previous relationships and to mention but one, regret. Regret in the sense that they went and realized that the person they left was actually a better person for them than the ones they have met afterwards. This is by the way.

All of the above boils down to maturity. Most people leave their relationships because their partner displays a lot of immaturity in their everyday affairs.

  1. A mature person doesn't talk unnecessarily. 
  2. A mature person considers the other person.
  3. A mature person only feels privileged.
  4. A mature person doesn't feel entitled.

If at all an EX came back, They came back to see if the person they left has grown more mature in his or her affairs so they can stay to build on something better perhaps, there is a part of this person's life that they like and want so much but their immaturity didn't make them stay the previous time they came. They did not come back because the person was stupid. I may not know much about people but here is something I know about people in this context.

There are two types of people that smart people don’t let go of easily.

  1. The wise ones because with them they learn and grow wiser
  2. The stupid ones because they can use them at will. 
  3. If a wise person ever lets a stupid person go, he is not coming back.

Most people have once said. Past relationships are like old books you’ve read before, even if you take it up to read again, you already know how it’s going to end. 

As true as this may sound, it is only for people who are not daring to grow in life. With growth comes change. When you are in level 5, (presuming life to be in levels), and your partner isn't someone who can coup with someone on that level so he or she got irritated and left but likes some other parts of you so much. They left because your core per se is on level 5. They may leave and come back again to see if your core has moved to the level they would not want to do without.

When they come back and find your core on the same level 5 they left, they would leave again and come back again until they can no longer come again.

But when they come and find out that more maturity has set in and your core has moved to the level they want, you would be surprised as to how thankful they would be for your paths to cross again.

People don't usually come back to their EXs to check if they are stupid or still stupid. If your EX comes back to you, just know that you are worth something important for him or her but perhaps an attitude or a character you are exhibiting is hindering something better to be founded. Instead of joining people who other people think for to talk, look deep into your life and make the necessary adjustments that you can make to make you a better person.

I hope this piece addresses this issue and still leave dozens of questions in your head.

  1. Good procedure in defining what you had in mind to define.

    Good reasons why someone can come back to their ex.

Characterized by beauty. Categorized as an angel. Graced with curves, And strides with style. 4. Builder like a bird. Keeper like a hen. Lover like a dolphin. Carrier like a whale. 5. Protector like an eagle. Giver like a hose. Fighter like animal. Server like a servant. 6. Product like honey. Fierce, yet gentle. Comforts like a home. This is a woman.

NYSC SCHEME - Poem

By Costly Oma .  Written In 2013.  First Published: Feb. 2014. 1.  An idea was birthed,  And into action, it sprung. Since from Nineteen Seventy-Three, Youths have been shuffled. 2. With a call, we moved A call to serve, our best to render, A call to give, our best to offer. A call to keep one Nigeria 3. Under the sun, we matched. In the rain, no difference. When it’s bright and clear, And otherwise, we answer. 4. A call like no other, Beginning with a journey, Then living three weeks in exclusion, Learning new things in new style. 5. A call so anticipated, Becomes so tiring with time, Then feels it should be extended but boring, Yet memories linger. 6. With the hope of National unity, It was birthed.  I hope that its cause has not been tilted, For sacrifices have been made. 7. NYSC SCHEME, We hope that your aim we achieve, For your call we heard, And your rules we kept. #nyscpoem #nyscschemepoem #scheme #nysc #poems #nationalyouthservice #nationalyouthserviceco...

Time - Poem

TIME Speaking!!! 1. Trust me, I’m in your beginning, In-between. And in your end. 2. I’m a part you can’t do without. An entity of immeasurable worth. A unit of the highest value. A mystery in essence. 3. Your future, I determine Your goals, I monitor Your achievements All, wrapped up in me. 4. I’m terrible. I’m hostile. I’m always against you. But I am a friend. 5. The diligence blesses me. The froward curse me. What are you? I AM TIME. 6. Seek me early and In abundance, you shall find me Seek me late and In the scarcity of me, you shall wallow. 7. Feel you have me, Lost me, you’d just. Feel you lost me, In hast, you must be. 8. Yea, you wish, I know. That I could be friendlier. But this is who and what I am. Just time. Man Speaking!!! 9. Oh, time. A treasure, yet cruel. A blessing, yet a curse. In endless circles you are. 10. Fashioning every man’s destiny. From where did you spring? A limited counting you are, In regular intervals. 11. Regulating man’s every endeavour. Slow it is wh...

There Are No Ordinary Words.

60% of all human communication is Nonverbal, meaning body language. 30% comes from the Tone in our voice. This means that what is really coming out of our mouths is just 10%. By   Costly Oma .  Our Words are like Bullets So To Say In a world where everyone has something to say and we are all saying one thing or the other, it is pertinent that we all learn and know or become aware of how to choose our words carefully and the tone in our voice correctly anytime we are engaging in a conversation knowing that for the message to be communicated accurately, there must be sound, and tones make up sounds and sounds come in words in conversation. Here is something I call the right choice of words. When the tone is right, the sound is right and when words are carefully chosen, communication is excellent. Don’t you want to get to that point? For me, I always want to be there. In this article, we will be learning the importance of choosing our words and the tone of our voice correctly whe...

My Life Experiences And Quotes

By Costly Oma . Life has a way of Teaching, Taming and training humans. All of these life's teachings could be termed as Life's Experiences and everyone has had a measure of them. No two individuals have the same sets of life experiences in their entirety since no two people have been known to have been subjected to the same sets of living in all ramifications since our life's experiences are how we live based. I've got some of my life experiences compiled. I hope they give you something to think about as you go through them one after the other. In the cause of life, I've come to learn the following:  My father would always say; Make sure you know all there is to know. If you want something done well, do it yourself. He that rests, rusts. Education without morality is like tea without sugar. Anything worth doing is worth doing well. People generally, hardly mean what they say but women are more so. And he warns; be extremely careful on how you execute women's de...

In My Country

 By Costly Oma . 29. In my country, sometimes, WAEC will declare you excellent only for NECO to come and write you off of any academic pursuit. 28. And at times in my country, WAEC will paralyze every sense of sense in you since it usually comes first in the year and then, NECO will come later to tell you, you are not so bad after all. 27. There is no smooth or straight sail of success in my country as vices are everywhere ready to pull you down. It is almost like baptism. If you are not baptised into a fold, you seem like an alien to that fold. 26. In my country, almost everyone has been baptized into the spirit of my country except for a very few people who I would say are lucky to have escaped the baptism. 25. In my country, even if WAEC and NECO set your sail going, JAMB might render you useless and make your ship motionless for years if it cares. 24. And at times, in my country, JAMB may set your colours flying only for your university to declare you useless, worthless and i...

The First Day Of Our Forever - Poem

By Costly Oma. Written on the 23rd January 2012. 1.  For you, my passions are without measure. With you, I know I’ll find pleasure. In you lay all life’s treasures. Keen my support in all life’s pressure. 2. If we are destined to be together, Make today the first day of our forever. With you, no heights can be greater. Together, we'll show the world we're masters. 3. With you, nothing else matters. Even through life’s blisters, All cannot but glitter. Moments with you are always better. 4. Often, I spend my nights dreaming. And feel myself coming. By you I find meaning. My moments with you I’m spending. 5. With every passing day. In my moments of hay. Like a pot made of clay. You are the makeup of my love tray. Make today the first day of our forever. #poem #thefirstdayofourforever #thefirstday #love #woo  #costlyoma #costlyomablog #costlyomasblog 

Father - Poem

By Costly Oma . 1. A Father. A role you are given. A role you didn't ask for, Yet you accepted, And have learned to understand. 2. A Father. Like a purpose, You stay loyal to it's aim. Like a vision, You stay married to it's picture. 3. A Father. Characterized by strength, Categorized by direction. Geared to provide. Wired to protect. 4. A Father. You carry a burden, Burden unknown to your wife, Burden unknown to your children, Burden unknown to your family. 5. The strength of the home. The defense of the family.  You cry sometime, Oh, yes you do, But not in the open.  6. Children misconcepts you, Misconcepts your nature, Nature of care and provision, And ascribes everything to their mothers. Lost are we without a father.  7. I love you dad, I don't misconcept you, Thank you for your seamless, Seamless care and provision.  My Father. #costly #oma #costlyoma #costlyomapoems #costlyomablog #father #fatherpoem #poemaboutfather #poemaboutafather

The Reason

By Costly Oma . 1. Solace, I find in poetry. In poetry, relief, I find. Not without the pain. But the pain, it soothes. 2. In my darkest days, And in my darkest hours, A line of poetry, in my heart, The difference, make. 3. When I find myself lost, In all that I cannot explain, The courage to press, A poetry gives. 4. My first love, I cannot tell. The present, past, and future. I choose the now, For the morrow, I know not. 5. When the bridge is out, And the living, being choked away, But saddled with poetry, To hold and hold I may. 6. From the lines of Ann Taylor's My Mother. To the ancient scripts of Dangerous Beauty, I grief still, But a lift, in poetry I find.  Happy World Poetry Day.

My Death-Feelings So Far – Part 1

By Costly Oma . My Death Encounter Part - 1. ~~My Body Leaving My Body~~ Sometime in the first quarter of the year 2018, around 4 AM in the morning, while I was still in bed, I was woken up by a strong presence of what I can call death. I felt this chilled cold sweep past me, from the soul of my feet to the crown of my head. It was so dramatic as I feel like the cold was swallowing me, starting from the soul of my feet to the crown of my head. As I got completely engulfed by the cold, I woke up. I woke up and got down from the bed but I was still seeing myself lying on the bed. I stood up but it felt like I wasn’t the one standing as I was seeing another me lying in bed. I was obviously at this point confused as to what was happening as I am both standing and lying down at the same time. As I was yet to get my mind organised as to what was happening, I saw a thick dark cloud forming at the westside wall of the room. This thick dark cloud looks so dirty and it smells so bad. As this cl...
