How To Get Your Ex Back: Mistakes You Want To Avoid
If you’re just after a breakup and you’re wondering how to get your ex back now that it seems like its over, then you’re not alone. Thousands of other broken hearted people have been in this situation before and wondered the same thing. And unfortunately, if you’re like most people, you’ve been working on getting your ex back in completely the wrong way.
That’s ok though. We all make mistakes. I’ve sure made plenty in my relationships in the past. But the key here is that if you want to work on how to get back your ex, you need to stop doing the things that are only convincing them even more that they’ve made the right decision in leaving you.
So let’s take a look at these common mistakes and see which ones apply in your situation.
#1 Don’t be too nice.
You might think that a nice person is someone that people are attracted to. And that’s true to some degree. Nobody wants to be with a mean and nasty creep.
But at the same time, if you’re too nice, you’re going to seem like a pushover, and that’s not one of the best ways to get your ex back, nor is it a great thing in a relationship at all.
Be nice, be fun, but be yourself. Don’t try to become the person you thing your partner wants you to be. That’s not going to really get you anywhere.
#2 Don’t try to rationalize them back into the relationship.
When you have a breakup, it’s not because your ex sat down and made a logical decision to get out. People make most of their relationship decisions based on their heart, not on their heads, and that’s what you need to be focusing on, the emotional side, not the logical side.
#3 Don’t be desperate.
Think about it, if you’re walking down the street and a panhandler comes after you, begging you for block after block for some cash, are you going to open your wallet?
If you’re like most people, you’re going to run as fast as you can to get as far away from this person as possible.
So if you think that begging is how to get your ex boyfriend back (or ex girlfriend, gender is not an issue here), then you’re committing mistake number three.
#4 Don’t try to buy them back
Whether it’s jewelry, flowers, Super Bowl tickets or a new Lexus (ok, that one might work
) trying to buy your ex back into the relationship is not a recipe for success. You’ll only convince them further that they’re not interested, and make things worse.
#5 Don’t talk about love or the relationship.
Maybe when you were together your ex loved to hear you say “I love you”, but now those words just sound like a desperate attempt at getting your ex back. This goes for calling, texting, whatever.
Your best bet at this point is to just say “you’re right, it’s time we ended things” and add that you hope you can be friends some time in the future.
Accepting the breakup, as counterproductive as it seems is the key to how to get back with your ex. It sort of levels the ground and gives you a chance to work on bringing in some powerful techniques that your ex won’t be expecting, and have a universally high success rate.
One thing that you need to know also is that you have to come from the right perspective. Men and women are very different. They think differently, need different things in a relationship, and are attracted to very different qualities in a potential partner.
So if you’re a guy who wants to know how to get your ex girlfriend back, you need to approach her and the relationship with methods that work well with women. And if you are a woman trying to get your man back, you need to use techniques that will pull a guy in.
Since your obvious nature is to think like your own gender, sometimes its hard to figure out what your ex is going to respond to best, which is why it’s really important to follow a plan that’s designed to take advantage of your ex’s psychological tendencies to make them want you again, and bring the two of you back together.
