That lesson is: you shouldn’t have separated from me.
Relationships can be very precarious. One moment you’re getting along like a house on fire, the next you’re yelling at each other, someone says something they regret and it’s over!
Has this happened to you?
I know very well how annoying and stressful this can be. So instead of doing something rash, you can plan what you’re going to do and be more successful. The instinct is there to lash out at your ex, to make him understand how bad you feel, but that’s the complete opposite of what you should be doing, assuming you want him back.
These 5 tips will get you some non-hurtful revenge, AND will most likely lure your ex right where you want him.
- Pretend you don’t hurt inside. Don’t be weird or your ex will think you don’t care. Just don’t sit around sulking that they dumped you and act like you’re moving on with your life.
- Reduce contact. This is very important. Do not send text messages, emails or calls. People always want what they can’t have, and being aloof can make you mysterious and desirable. Even think about not answering their calls and texts the instant they get through.
- Be reasonable. Instead of picking a fight every time you see your ex because you’re angry about the situation, be fair and courteous. Being visibly unhappy, angry, or upset will make your ex walk away.
- Network. Or if you’re not a pretentious yuppie, get social. Knowing you’re away from home, meeting new people can cause a bit of jealousy, and that’s a good thing. Don’t rub it up their nose, though, or you risk washing their hands.
- Remember who you were when you met your ex. There was a reason you two got together. Remind them and yourself what that was. Stop taking each other for granted.
Following these 5 simple steps will not only help you get back on your feet, in a good way of course, but it will make you much more likely to get your ex back.
