Breaking up with a loved one is tough, especially if you end up wanting them back.
Relationships are fickle and sometimes they just don't go the way you want or expect.
Break ups are a part of life just as much as going to sleep is.
It's almost guaranteed to happen at least once in your lifetime.
What happens when a break up happens with someone you really do truly care about though? Is there any way to remedy the situation? I've got good news, because there are things you can do to get back your ex boyfriend! Take time.
Time heals all problems eventually.
Now, I'm not saying that you should just sit by idly and wait for things to happen.
But at the very least, you need to take some time off from the relationship.
Don't contact them for at least a month.
After that, it's up to you.
If you feel like you need more time then take more time.
If you run into them, be nice but don't linger and don't divulge lots of personal information about what's been going on.
Make them miss you! Improve yourself.
Do you have something about yourself that you don't particularly like? Have you put on a few pounds? Join a gym! Do you want to finish your degree? Go back to school! Get some hobbies and improve your quality of life.
Eventually, when you do talk to your ex boyfriend again, give him some new things to appreciate about you.
Show him you were able to evolve and able to grow without him being there.
Ask yourself if you really need him.
A lot of times, right after a break up, people will literally go crazy asking themselves how to get back their ex boyfriend.
Think really hard about it.
Do you really need him in your life? Why did you two break up? Was it something that could be fixed, or something that can be forgiven? Do you deserve better? A lot of these questions are reflecting, so really take time and write your answers out on paper.
