I had to tame my chick flick-inspired giddiness upon reading reports that Jimmy Kimmel and Sarah Silverman are back together. They're so cute.
The reported reconciliation got me thinking about how many of my couple friends, married ones included, have broken up at least once. And then gotten back together.
It seems as if the term "breakup" has lost some of its finality. I've had many friends sever ties with a partner and then, upon describing the situation, optimistically say, "We'll see what happens."
With that understanding, couples often spend their time apart just waiting to get back together.
Must every "successful" couple break up at least once?
