Does a recent breakup make you want to get your ex back? The reasons behind the breakup probably seem silly now, but the effects drove you and your ex apart. The last thing you wanted to happen was this! If you really love them and want to know what you can do to get them back, keep reading.

I bet you’re a bag full of emotions right now. On one hand, you are angry with your ex, on the other hand, you are worried that you will never get your ex back. Considering you’re feeling all of these conflicting emotions, it goes without saying that your ex is probably dealing with the same issues, and that’s a good thing. This means that they are still in the game and probably miss you so much.

With so much on your head (and theirs), it’s not a good idea to try to figure anything out right away. This will probably require some time apart. Before you panic, rest assured that taking time apart is the right choice. Neither you nor your ex are really capable of thinking rationally right now. You are more concerned with your own problems than the relationship’s. Speeding up the healing process will only lead to more permanent wounds and scars later on.

This healing time, apart from each other, is best spent in a positive frame of mind. If you continue to be upset about what happened and dwell on the past that cannot be changed, there will be little chance of getting your ex back. However, if your ex sees that you are doing well and you seem happy and in a good mood, he will soon realize that you can manage on your own. Plus, they’ll wonder what fun you’re having without them; making them want you back even more.

Finding things in your life that make you happy is your goal. Going out with your friends, taking a trip to your favorite place, buying a special gift for yourself, or simply starting a new hobby or sport are some suggestions to change your mood. The trick is to stay optimistic. Not only will it make your ex want you back, but it will do wonders for your health!

You will probably be eager to contact your ex. If you want to get your ex back, you should avoid contact. For the healing time to be successful, along with the separation time, you just have to leave them alone as far as contact is concerned. With heightened emotions, it is all too easy to interpret what the other person is trying to say, and the messages conveyed are often confusing. I know it’s very easy to just pick up your cell phone and send them a text, but you have to avoid that impulse. Wait for them to contact you first, that way you know they are ready to communicate.

Don’t think for a second that a breakup means the end of a relationship. On the contrary, most relationships that fall on hard times can be successfully rebuilt. Those who are successful have the knowledge on how to do it; something you are missing right now.
