You had a heated argument with your partner and before you know it, one of you suggested a break up and the relationship was over.
Now that you have calmed down and thought things over, you are regretting your rash action and wanted to get back together with your ex.
Can that be done? Before you start making any attempts at getting back with your partner, you should first ask yourself a very basic and important question; do you still love your ex? If you have thought it through thoroughly and your answer is 'yes', then the following 6 tips can help you to get back with your ex.
1.
Call your ex for a casual chat.
By calling, I do not mean calling him or her ten times a day to ask for a reunion.
No, that will only make you sound desperate and you do not want to do that.
Just make one or two calls a week and keep the conversation causal.
In the meantime, move on with your life but keep your ex in sight.
2.
Show your concern and care for your ex.
You can do that by sending him or her a card or an email occasionally, especially on special dates like their birthdays.
This will let your ex know that you still care while at the same time keeping your distance.
Over time, your ex will start to miss your presence too.
3.
Refrain from exhibiting jealousy if he or she goes on a date with someone else.
Keep in mind that you are no longer together so displaying your jealousy or displeasure for your ex will only backfire.
Both of you do not have any claims on each other's life anymore.
4.
You can by all means go out with other friends in groups but do not go on single dates.
If you still love your ex, you do not want him or her to know that you are seeing someone else.
Your ex might just think that you have decided to have a clean break and you will only jeopardize any hope of getting back together.
5.
Do not try to play hard to get, unless you really do not want to be back together anymore.
By playing these games, you are only hurting your ex.
6.
Stay in good shape.
Now that you have broken up with your ex, you have more reasons to be in good shape and be desirable.
Get back to your old charming or pretty self when you were first together and your ex will start to realize what he or she had missed.
If you had been a jovial person, be that person again.
A break up does not signify the end of the world even though you are really hurting badly inside.
Over time, your ex will start to show signs of wanting to be back with you again.
It is possible to get back together with your ex but you need to have lots of patience to let time heal the pain.
Start as friends again and woo your ex all over again and you will have a more wonderful relationship than before.
