What Should I Do To Get My Ex Back?

Breaking up is really hard to do and when you break up with someone you love, you go through lots of painful emotions. And lots. And lots. And lots. You feel sad, lost, depressed and hurt. You miss them. You wonder to yourself how you're ever going to be able to make it through a single day without them. “What should I do to get my ex back?” becomes a question you constantly ask yourself. Over and over again.

There are many websites, books, blogs, forums and even courses designed to answer that very question...what should I do to get my ex back? Your common sense can really make a difference after a breakup. And common courtesy can go long way toward healing your relationship too. Think of the other person rather than just yourself. You know, they might be hurting too, after all, they were part of the relationship also.

If you’re preoccupied with your lost relationship, wondering “what should I do to get my ex back?” then take it from me. To give yourself the best chance of getting back together with that special someone, then follow this simple advice.

Don’t play games. This is very important, but unfortunately many people resort to playing games during breakups because it gives them a sense of power. If you can make the other person think that you don’t care about them, or if you make them think that you care more than you really do, you’re manipulating them and that can feel great. But it won’t feel great for long. And you're a jerk because you are a manipulating person, so your ex just might be better off without you.

Eventually you’ll realize that lying and tricking the other person isn’t a good feeling. And anything good that happens because of it will probably only be temporary because it was based on a lie.

Some people play games where they pretend to be dating someone else, or they pretend to be in love with someone else. This is a ploy to make the ex jealous. While it does work now and then, other times it makes the breakup permanent because it backfires. Your ex honestly believes that you have moved on and have no interest in them.

Your ex could be so jealous at the thought of you being with someone else that they want you back. Or they could decide that since you moved on so quickly, you don’t really care about them anyway. You have no way of knowing which way this ploy will work until it’s too late. So you are much better off just staying away from this approach. Be considerate.

Don’t be mean. This holds true in any situation or any relationship, but sometimes the anger around a breakup makes us act more viciously than we normally might. Even if you’re hurt, the fact that you want to know, ‘What should I do to get my ex back?” shows that you’re ready to forgive that person. If you couldn’t, you wouldn’t want your ex back, you’d be glad it was over. Be nice and be genuine.

Now, think about how you’ve been acting. If you were your ex, would you look forward to spending time with you or talking to you? Or would you dread each time? Do you shout and nag? Even if you feel like raising all kinds of arguments, simply don’t. Work very hard at controlling your anger and hurt, and being a person they can miss. Many times if you can learn the art of self-control, this alone may enough to remedy your breakup.

“What should I do to get my ex back?” Be on your best behavior and make your ex remember what drew them to you in the first place. They’ll remember your good points and will miss them. Then you’ll have a better chance of being able to get back together with your ex.

These are just the beginning steps in winning your ex back. They are the initial steps I followed when I lost the love of my life. And frankly these aren't my original ideas. I turned to T 'Dub' Jackson when I had no idea of how to get my true love back.

T 'Dub' authored a simple, down to earth step by step plan called, The Magic Of Making Up. And you know, it worked like magic for us. Now we are more in love than ever.
