That lesson being: You shouldn’t have split up with me.
Relationships can be very precarious. One minute you’re getting along like a house on fire, the next you’re shouting at each other, someone says something they regret and it’s over!
Has this ever happened to you?
I know only too well how upsetting and stressful this can be. This is why, instead of doing something rash, you can plan what you are going to do, and have greater success. The instinct is there to lash out at your ex, to make them understand how bad you feel, but that is the complete opposite of what you should do, assuming you want them back.
These 5 tips will enable you to get some non-hurtful revenge, AND they’ll more than likely draw your ex right back where you want him or her.
- Pretend you’re not hurting inside. Don’t be flippant or your ex will think you don’t care. Just don’t sit around sulking because you got dumped, and act as though you are getting on with your life.
- Reduce contact. This is very important. Don’t text, email or call. 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 come through.
- Be reasonable. Instead of picking a fight every time you see your ex because you are angry about the situation, be fair and polite. Being visibly unhappy, angry or upset, will drive your ex away.
- Network. Or if you’re not a pretentious yuppie, Socialize. Knowing that you’re out and about, meeting new people may cause a little jealousy, and that’s a good thing. Don’t rub their nose in it though, or you risk them washing their hands of you.
- Remember who you were when you first 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 your own back, in a nice way of course, but they’ll make it that much more likely that you’ll get your ex back.
