Im considering dating my ex, it wasn’t a particularly toxic relationship but i felt like i was being very overshadowed. They have a big personality and I felt like it resulted in there not being enough space for me in the relationship.
I really like them and they say that they’ll try to actively change how they’ve been treating me.

Have you really gotten to the heart of _why_ they treated you the way they did?
It can be ok to get back together with an ex but you need to make sure they are different: you’re both able to identify what went wrong _and have a clear plan_ to address it. “I’ll try” doesn’t sound promising, get something more substantial
People often reconnect and it can work out. But, for the most part, it usually ends up in dating, breaking up, dating, breaking up, and just problems. But, yes, it can work. I don’t know the exact percentage, because that is probably not a known statistic. Each situation is different.
Here’s the thing: people don’t radically change their personalities 99.9% of the time. It’s usually the same person with the same issues when you get back together.
