How To Win Your Ex Back

By Xavier Bach

Nearly everyone is looking for a soul mate. And unfortunately when you think you've found him or her, it can be devastating when the relationship ends, leaving you wondering. Relationships are fragile and when a break up comes, it can be frustrating, depressing, and stressful, especially when the person you were with is "THE ONE," so far as you're concerned.

However, your break up may have been a blessing in disguise. In other words, your assessment of your so-called soul mate may have been wrong all along; however, that is for you to settle. But if you are sure he or she is "the one", then here are a few timed-tested steps to drive them back to you.

The first thing you don't want to do is to give your ex the impression that you are desperate...desperation breeds contempt and you don't want to do that. It's a sign of weakness and will turn him or her off even more. What you need to do is give your ex the impression that you have moved on.

Party with your friends, socialize, and DON'T try to make your ex jealous. Let your ex see you're doing fine. That you're strong. By doing this you have a better chance of getting your ex back because it will get their attention.

Second, find the reason for the breakup and learn from it; you'll be richer for it. You can't jump back in time and make it right, but you can learn from your mistake. And don't despair.

Third, cut communication to a minimum. Not only do you need to clear your head and think about what happened, but also your ex needs to, too. Don't let your break up get you down or obsess over it. Also, minimizing communications, curbs the desperation factor, keeping you from appearing needy. Make your ex miss you.

I realize you want to do everything possible to get your ex back, and that minimizing communication seems counterintuitive, but it must be done to maximize your chances of getting what you want -- your ex back. Trust me, it works.

Lastly, you want to come up with a plan. Determine when you want to meet again, where you want to meet, and what you are going to talk about. But don't plan your meeting too early, or too late, timing is everything. Take action. You know your ex, so plan accordingly. This will help you access the situation more rationally, and increases your chances of getting your ex back. - 16463
