First - ditch the desperation When you and your ex breakup, you are desperately looking for ways to get your ex back.
This desperation is completely normal.
Almost everybody feels that way when they breakup.
Especially when that breakup wasn't expected or wasn't wanted.
Unfortunately though, desperation makes you act like you wouldn't normally act.
Desperate behavior, like repeatedly calling your ex, or sending way more text messages the necessary, only makes you look lame and unattractive to your ex.
So you need to ditch the desperation, because it doesn't get you anywhere.
There are definitely good ways and bad ways to get ex back, make sure you're doing the good ones.
Second - take some time to yourself This tip goes hand-in-hand with the first one.
You need to take some time to yourself and do some fun things that you enjoy doing.
You may want to go on a date.
Going out and having fun will actually increase your chances greatly of getting back with your ex.
The other thing that taking some time to yourself does is it get you some time to get perspective on the relationship, so that when you go to re-approach your ex you come across as confident.
There is nothing more attractive than a confident person.
Third - how to make your opening move Your opening move should be to agree with the breakup.
I know this sounds crazy, and is totally and completely counter intuitive, but it really works.
This is one of the best ways to get your ex back.
What I mean by agreeing with the breakup, is to call your ex up (no texting or e-mail please) or write them a handwritten letter, and tell them that you agree with the reasons they had for breaking up.
You need to say that you think they were right, and that your much better off now.
This works magic, it is one of the best ways to get back ex.
Try it and see.
