Should you get back with your ex?

Most couples who get married have, at some point, broken up and got back together so cut your man some slack if he wants you back. However some relationships are doomed to fail.

Here are some things to consider before taking back your ex:

1. Does he smell of kippers?

2. Did he cheat on you more than twice?

3. Does he have a scary dog?

4. Does he check the football scores when you're out on a date?

5. Did he steal from you often?

6. Is he married to somebody under 35?

7. Has he ever pretended to be dying to get a shag?

If the answer to any of these is "Yes" then you should probably give your ex a wider birth that Belinda Blowhandle's waist.
