Getting your ex back is not impossible.
Even if your situation seems hopeless, there are several proven methods to getting your partner back.
Many of these techniques use step-by-step instructions and are extremely effective in walking you through even the most intolerable situations.
This particular five-step method involves thinking a little differently and resisting those urges you probably have at the moment.
It forces you to look at things more realistically and to realize when your emotions are taking control and making things worse.
In step one of this technique, you are going to simply accept your situation and take time to grieve and mourn your loss.
Take a few days to get over the worst of your emotions and avoid the urge to "fix" the situation.
Acceptance is absolutely critical at this stage.
Next, you need to briefly contact your ex and let them know that you accept the breakup and that you plan to move on.
They must know in no uncertain terms that you have not crumbled under the pressure and have no intention of allowing them to control you emotionally.
This is going to hit them hard because it will be the last thing they are expecting.
After that, you need to start walking the walk.
It's one thing to tell them you accept the breakup, but now you're going to have to let them see that you are just fine.
Get on with your life, go out with friends, get back into your social circle - and make sure your ex sees you do it.
Stay in contact with your ex under the guise of friendship.
Act normal (even if you don't feel like it) and make sure you don't show any emotion.
Do not refer to the relationship and keep things on a very impersonal level.
Smile, laugh, even flirt, but definitely do not get serious.
Always keep meetings short and let them know you have to be somewhere (even if you don't).
At this point, there's a very good chance that they'll be contacting you.
Do not give in easily or it's going to look like it was all an act for their benefit.
Play extremely hard to get, but remain friendly and upbeat.
The longer you can keep this up, the stronger their feelings are going to grow for you.
You'll know when the time is right to let your guard down and give them another chance.
