Getting Your Ex Back - 6 Tips to Help You

By Erik J. Michaels

When you've just had a blowout with your partner and you suddenly find yourself alone and calling him your ex...it's a rough time where most people just want to find a way to pull the pieces back together and get life back to how it was. Unfortunately, it's not exactly easy to figure out what to do to make that happen, which is why I've written this short list to help you out.

1) Odd as it may seem, one of the first things you need to do is break off contact with your ex for about a month. Resist all urges to contact him! If you don't give your ex some room, nothing'll ever work out...he needs some time to miss you! As a bonus, you get some time to clear your head as well.

2) Don't let Hollywood fool you...sliding into a rock-bottom slump until your caring friends take care of everything for you or your ex calls you up out of the blue to get back together does NOT happen in real life. The only person you can count on is yourself, so find the motivation to rise above your depression and take back your life.

3) Just because you are your only main resource doesn't mean you can't have a little support. Being with great friends or close family can do wonders for you, uplifting your spirits and helping you heal. I recommend spending a lot of time with people who love you, it'll do you a lot of good and when you feel better you'll be better-equipped to get him back.

4) Take some pride in yourself, and enjoy your life in spite of the pain. Now's the time to look your best ALL the time, and avoid idle sadness by keeping busy in social environments. Do a full inventory of your physical appearance and change anything you don't like, and then strut your stuff out in the clubs or parties. Looking good combined with the attention you'll get from local singles will help build your self-confidence back up, and may even inspire a little jealousy in your ex...who may be having a rougher time of things.

5) When you're working to get your ex back, make sure you're not depending on anyone but yourself. You're the only one who can make sure this all goes according to plan, because you're the only one you can count on. Don't trust your ex to take part in this or do as you want him to...you'll have to make allowances for things he may do and take care to do the things that are sure to cause him to do what you need him to do. Remember, any sacrifices made for the two of you will have to be made by you...it's unfair, but it's how it is.

6) Things don't fix themselves, and even when they get fixed they don't always stay that way just by default. When you do get your ex back, it's important not to let this happen again. The things the two of you resolved when you got back together should never affect your relationship again, and it's YOUR job to make sure of it. Letting things go again just because the hard part seems to be over is nothing but a great way to bring about more trouble and heartache. If you really value your relationship, take care of it.

Remember these tips, and you should find that your entire experience pursuing your ex for another try will be a whole lot easier to get through, and far more likely to succeed. It doesn't have to be the end of the world when you break up with a loved one...and hopefully this article has helped you to see that. Good luck!
