When my true love dumped me a while back and I felt my situation was hopeless, I adopted a plan to help me get her back.
In this article I will tell you about one part of that plan which started me on the road to reconciliation.
At the moment you must be optimistic that you can get her back - the breakup was not so disastrous as to make getting back together impossible.
Having established there is still hope of reuniting, take a moment to think if you were directly responsible for any hurt incurred during the breakup.
If so, take a positive first step and apologize now, sincerely.
After doing that you are well placed to start developing and using your sensitive side to get her back.
Showing sensitivity is more than just sending flowers or buying a card.
Let's face it, ordering flowers online or by phone is dead simple and getting a card with another person's fancy poetry takes no special effort.
Try these couple of alternatives and she really will start to see and appreciate your sensitive side.
Buy a blank card and write your own heart felt message.
It does not have to be grammatically fancy with flowing rhyme - it is far better to express your feelings towards her in your own words.
Be honest in what you write and let her know how much you appreciate her.
In the case of flowers, pick some of your own and assemble your own unique bouquet - that will go down a treat! The above couple of actions will not guarantee that you get her back, but she will start to warm towards you when she sees you are at least trying to do things the right way.
Women commonly complain that men are not thoughtful and if it happens that you lacked thoughtfulness during the relationship, now is the time to remedy that.
Obviously you cannot be giving cards and flowers every day, but you can be developing a more considerate attitude towards your ex girlfriend.
Once again this is part of a plan that will build towards your aim to get a girlfriend back.
The whole process could take an extended time but each step you take moves you to a better position for reconciliation.
If you hardly ever did thoughtful things when you were together with your girlfriend, or if your thoughtful actions diminished over time, then the chances are she will most likely be suspicious of why you are doing them now.
However the key point here is to be patient and just keep going with your considerate behavior.
If you start to get irritated and upset at her ongoing disbelief, and she detects this, then you will have undone all your great work so far.
Remember that the real reason you are doing these thoughtful things is because you get genuine enjoyment from seeing her cheerful.
While you are working toward your goal to get her back in background mode, your overriding aim is to make her happy.
