I’m going to be perfectly honest here, I must have spent years, over the years, trying to get an ex back.
I have been dumped more times than kittens in February. Puppies too, come to think of it.
Luckily the people that found me didn’t give me the dreaded operation!
But I digress…..
Here is my humble advice on how to get your ex back
The main reason it cost me so much time and anguish, let alone annoyed the crap out of anyone within five miles of me, was that I never was smart enough to ask myself the fundamental questions, the most important being “What’s the best way to get ex back?”:
1. Why did he / she leave in the first place?
2. Is it in my make-up to change what he / she doesn’t like about me?
3. Do I WANT to change and be someone else? How long can I keep it up? (no pun intended).
4. Is there realistically any chance of a reunion or should I move on? – I know it’s not easy!
5. WHY am I so desperate to get him / her back? Am I just lonely, scared, or just really pi**ed off at anyone having the temerity to leave ME!
6. Last, but definitely not least: “Do I really want to get him / her back or has the relationship just run its course and I am reluctant to let go?”
If you think I’m going to answer all these questions for you, tell you the best way to get ex back and everyone will live happily ever after, you’ve got rocks in your collective heads.
What I will do, though, is try to give you some pointers. If you don’t like my advice on how to get your ex back, look in the mirror and you’ll soon see the main problem.
OK – basic tips, pointers and advice on how to get your ex back.
Dos and Don’ts;
• Don’t phone, text, MSN, carrier pigeon him / her 93 times a day professing undying love! It makes you look weak and gives the power to the other half of the relationship.
• BLOKES ~ don’t bother with flowers, chocolates, etc. Just learn to put the toilet seat down! It’s usually tiny little things that cause major problems.
• SHEILAS ~ do you REALLY have to hang pantyhose, bras and knickers all over the bathroom? It can be quite un-nerving, if not life threatening, for a bloke to be confronted by erotic underwear whilst trying to have a shave!
• THINK – and when you’ve done that, think again. What are my irritating traits? What could I improve in myself that will benefit me, my relationship or my relationships in the future? We ALL have little things that really annoy “the other half”. They are usually very minor things to fix and fixing them makes you a better person, anyway. You never know – these little thing may just be the best way to get ex back
• Seek advice from experts. Your family and friends are NOT experts. They will always see you as the victim and their advice isn’t worth a hatful of parrot poo! {more on this, later}.
• Try to live life as normally as possible. Without walking around with a face like a twisted sandshoe. If you are moping, believe me, it will get back to the other half and they will laugh into their chardonnay, or real ale, as the case may be. They will NOT, repeat, NOT come running back begging forgiveness. Why should they? They have won!
It may appear to you that I’m not taking this whole problem seriously. I’m not! And the reason that I’m being flippant is that if I were to write with tears cascading down my face I wouldn’t be able to say anything that had any logic attached to it.
This is a very emotional time for you, I know that, ‘been there, SHE got the t-shirt’!
All I’m trying to do is to prod you into THINKING. “What is the best way to get ex back?”
Now, that expert advice I mentioned earlier.
There’s this guy I know who has a rotten habit of writing a diary. Finding his feminine side, I suppose.
Well, he’s taken all his experiences of being hurled onto the relationship compost heap and turned smelly old rubbish into GOOD NUTRITIOUS STUFF. Bit like a worm, really.
He really is an expert on giving advice for broken relationships.
I must tell him that, he’ll appreciate it no end.
I think it would be a good idea if you went and saw him too. He knows what he’s talking about and has the knack of putting it far better than me.
You’ll find him hanging around on my website. The details are below.
Thanks for taking the time to read this. I’m truly sorry you had the need to, but s**t happens to all of us.
You WILL win, you know. One way or another.
I did!
