Have you just experienced a bad breakup? Sometimes people say things they don't mean in the heat of an argument. This often leads to rash decisions that always cause feelings of regret the next day.

It can happen to anyone, even the most loving couple. I know how it feels. My fiancee and I were at a friend's wedding a month ago and we both had a little too much to drink. She was dancing with one of the groomsmen and I felt they were getting a little too close.

In a fit of jealousy, I pulled her outside and we started to argue. She ended up leaving in tears with one of the bridesmaids and I was asked to leave the reception. I thought it was definitely over. After I sobered up a little, I felt terrible. I knew it was mostly my fault and I wanted her back. However, she wouldn't take my calls. I was really afraid that we wouldn't ever get back together.

A few days went by, and in that time I became determined to get her back. I did a little research and came up with a plan to get my ex-girlfriend to come running back to me. Do you want to know how I did it? Well, it certainly wasn't easy, but I'm living proof it can be done. Here are two tips that are quite effective to get your ex-girlfriend to see you again:

1. Don't Keep Calling - If she doesn't pick up the phone after two calls, don't keep calling. Lay off and don't get in touch with her for at least a week. I know it can be hard, but this step is crucial. After a week or so, send her an email. Tell her you have had time to think and ask if she will meet you for coffee.

2. Send Her A Simple Card - If you still don't get any reply, send her a simple card. This is where a lot of guys go overboard. Don't pour your feelings out in the card, and don't send one of those tear-jerking, heartfelt cards, either. Send a simple "friendship" type card and tell her that you are sorry and you would still like to be friends.

Remind her of all of the good times you had together and how you would hate to lose such a great friend. Don't mention anything about getting back together.

Bonus Tip:

If the above two tips don't get you any results, it's time to pull out the big guns!

Act Like You Are Dating Someone Else - This tactic involves putting yourself in a place where you will run into one of her friends or family members. When you see them, engage them in small talk and don't mention the breakup. In passing, mention that a female friend from your past is back in town and you are looking forward to seeing her again.

It is almost a guarantee that word will get back to your ex. Be careful, because this tactic can blow up in your face. Usually, one of two things will happen. She will either call you and want to meet, or she'll set up a date with another guy out of spite. If that happens, it may be more difficult to get her back and you might need to employ some more advanced tactics.

Don't despair. You can get you ex girlfriend back if you try.
