10 STEPS TO GET YOUR EX BACK

Not necessarily in the given order…

Buck up: Prepare for the worst, hope for the best. No matter what you do, ur ex may NEVER come back. Doesn’t mean you didn’t try hard enough. Doesn’t mean you can’t try hard enough. You got nothing to lose.

Respect: This is probably the biggest reason for all major fall-outs or probably the final drill that broke it all. Whatever the reason, don’t say it, show your respect!

Manipulation:  If you’re tryin’ so hard to get your ex back, chances are, the two of you were quite close. So, your ex can read you like a book. Don’t manipulate in ANY form. In between ANY line. Stay clear; state sincere. Phrases like – “Lol, you can’t be that stupid!” or “Oh, you won’t be so giving.” *an insincere emoji maybe* - they’ll only work against you!

Space: Give your ex the space so they can walk and come to you. This also gives them a chance to assure them of their own sure-footed decision when they do. Or else they’ll forever be wondering if this is what they wanted at all or coercion of situation.

Time: Time, as clichéd as it is, IS the best healer. If your ex asks for time, Give. No questions no conditions. If you fall in love with someone else before your ex is back, well now you know who’s really meant for you!

Silence: Don’t let your actions or words be so loud your ex can’t hear his or her own thoughts. If you say or write or send a card, wait for the response. Don’t answer to your own answer. Sometimes people take more than a minute or decade to express.

Pray: You don't have the power to make anyone love you so filing a petition with providence won't hurt you!

Past: Although you are attempting to remind your ex about the good ol’ days by rewinding the record, it may trigger exactly those negative memories that your ex has been trying so hard to overcome. So no past references. Start afresh!

Friendship: if there's anything purer than love its friendship so try and strike that platonic gold feel with your ex. Pat yourself for your understanding that this is the best you can ever have (in case your ex never returns) and that you're lucky enough to play the friend part. Hey, atleast you have a part in your ex's life!

Let Go: Sometimes although you want your ex back in your life it’s just so that you can get back for all the hurt the other person's caused you intentionally or unintentionally. So introspect if the reasons you wanna get back for are genuine. If it’s not the case, forgo the chase.
