Did you dump your boyfriend and are now regretting it? It can be tough getting an ex back when you were the one that got dumped.
It's even trickier trying to win him back if you dumped him, yet that is the situation that Angela found herself in.
This is what happened.
Angela confronted her boyfriend, Jeff and accused him of cheating on her.
Unfortunately she had taken her friend Jill's word that he had an affair with another girl.
She didn't even bother to find out if what she told her was true she was so worked up about it.
Angela just accused Jeff and he was so surprised by the accusation he didn't convince her she was wrong, so she broke up with him.
When Angela found out that Jill had been lying due to her own jealousy and insecurity, she was devastated.
What should she do now? Well Angela decided to bite the bullet and call Jeff and try to explain.
Jeff was not in a forgiving mood.
Angela had blown things by not even trying to talk it over with him and not trusting him.
Angela decided that Jeff was worth fighting for and this is what she did to get an ex back: 1.
Angela first wrote Jeff a letter and apologized.
She owned up to what she did wrong and brought up the special times they had together and their history.
She said she didn't want to lose all of that and promised that she would never act that way again.
She also explained that she had acted without thinking because she loved him and was really hurt when she thought of him with another woman.
2.
She didn't call him or contact him.
She thought Jeff would need some time and space away from her for awhile.
3.
She kept it casual when she ran into him, but was extra nice when she did.
She would try to bring up a happy memory or two casually.
She did not apologize again as she had already done so.
4.
Angela was able to get some tickets for a favorite group of Jeff's which were doing a one time performance.
She used the opportunity to invite Jeff to go with her - just as friends.
She made it easy for him to accept since she didn't come across as pushy.
Angela had to work to rebuild the trust that they once had.
It was difficult and took time and patience, but eventually they did get back together.
Jeff was able to accept that she had allowed jealousy to take control and had acted rashly because she loved him so much.
He realized the potential they had together and they became even closer after almost losing each other.
Angela had worked hard and did what she needed to do as far as getting an ex back.
