[E338]Ex Wants To Get Back Together

by Anthony Malibu, Ant

Winning back an ex after being dumped can often be tough, especially if you're not sure why the relationship ended. To get back your exboyfriend you'll need to act quickly to increase your chances of fixing the breakup, but you'll also need to recognize the signs that your ex wants to get back together.

Many of the signs given off by an exboyfriend will be tailored just for you. He wants you to see these, and he's testing out how you feel about giving your relationship another shot. Other times though, the signals put off by an ex when they want to get back together might be a little more subtle. The indications below are all good signs that your ex is missing and thinking about you, and/or wants to rekindle your romance.

* Your Ex Keeps In Touch With You - If your ex is no longer interested in dating you, chances are they'll break all contact. It might not happen immediately (they're letting you off easy) but it will happen. But an ex boyfriend that still stays in contact with you? He's not yet over your relationship. Most likely, he's also keeping you around in case he changes his mind. An ex that stays in touch with you is always a good sign, and the more he initiates contact the better.

* He Talks Openly About His Situation - The first thing a guy will do when he starts dating someone else is clam up when it comes to his exgirlfriend. If your ex is still talking about his daily life and schedule with you as if it's no big deal, it means he hasn't moved on yet. This is a good indication that he's not dating anyone else, and he wants you to know this (so you don't start dating anyone else). Examine his words carefully and see if he's overly descriptive of his life, or lack of love-life.

* Your Ex Asks If You're Dating Someone New - Making your ex jealous isn't hard, all you need to do is show interest in someone else. This isn't something I'd recommend, especially if you want to get your ex boyfriend back. What I'm saying is that if your ex is always asking about your current romantic situation? He's totally not finished with you yet. No guy wants to hear his exgirlfriend is dating someone new... even if he has someone, he's going to be jealous about it. Asking you about your love life is a sign he still cares.

* Your Ex Constantly Brings Up The Past - Anytime he talks about your past relationship, it's a tremendous sign that your ex misses you. He'll probably mention the good times, and when he does you should play it up that you had the same great times that he did. Winning back your boyfriend is all about keeping the conversation comfortable, and if he feels you relate to him on what you're saying it makes the transition back into dating each other again a lot easier on him.

* He Re-Hashes Your Break Up - While you may think this is a bad sign, it's actually a good one. Any time your ex brings up the reasons you broke up, he's trying to rationalize and rectify those issues in his own mind. Getting past the break up is what helps him consider being with you again, because once you've both reconciled the fighting and issues... and put the past behind you... all that's left is a future together. Tread carefully when your ex talks about these things, but encourage progress. If you want to win your ex back, slow is the way to go here.

* Your Ex is Suddenly Nice To You - Any time there's a major behavior change in your ex's life, something big has happened. If these changes involve him being nice, affectionate, appreciative, or emotional toward you, odds are he's reconsidering the break up. He's also trying to impress you, the way he did when you first started dating. It's a good indication your ex may be trying to win you back, and you should encourage these behaviors with some of your own.

1)Are you the one who initiated the break up? If so, why? There is always a reason behind every break up. Have it been resolved. If not, getting back together may not help. It may lead to a second break up. For example, perhaps you feel that both of you are not compatible, so you decided to break up. If that is the reason, then you will want to think twice.

What you may want to do is to discuss the reason with your partner or even with a relationship counselor. That may help to resolve your problems.

If the break up is caused by a trivial reason or because of a small misunderstanding, then perhaps you should try your best to salvage the relationship. Of course, I am assuming that both of you still deeply care about each other. So getting back may be best for both of you. Sometimes, all it takes is to put aside your pride for the time being and just apologized.

It is sometimes more important to love than to be right about trivial issue.

2)Is your partner the one who initiated the break up? Is it because of you? If that is the case, you should really reflect upon your action. Do you think you are committed to make changes for the sake of your partner? If you are willing to do so, and you believe it will made both of you happy in the long run, then by all means go ahead.

3)Are there any serious problems in the past? Excessive flirting? Abuse? If there are, you must think twice. Does the problem lies with you? Can you change? Or does the problems lie with your partner? Can your partner change?

4)Are you involved in a new and better relationship now. Perhaps you have break up 1 year ago. You have started a new and better relationship. Yet you ex started to appear in your life again. And somehow, you still miss him/her.

This is not an easy decision to make as a third party is involved. However, if your old relationship already has problems, it is hard to guarantee that the old problem will not resurface.

Those are the 4 guidelines that you will want to consider very carefully.
