Millions of singles wonder about the one that got away. The girlfriend or boyfriend that we fell head-over-heels for… but for some reason the relationship just didn’t work out the way we’d hoped.
And millions of singles want a chance to win them back.
But getting back the ex can blow up in your face if you do it wrong. Remember this is a person who you've already had a failed relationship with - so you're starting behind the ‘eight ball.’ It's going to be far easier attraction someone new - than attracting the ex. But if want your ex back, your history can be overcome if you follow the steps below:
1. Date other people
This may sound strange, but dating other people will show that you're not hung up on them. It shows you have confidence, independence, a positive outlook, and have the ability to attract other singles. All this shows the ex, and all those around you, that you're a desirable person to be with.
2. Live an attractive life
Make sure your life is attractive enough that they want to re-enter your life. If you're an aimless couch potato who thinks watching TV is exciting, you're probably not going to attract the ex. However, if you've started working out, are taking surfing lessons, volunteer down at the YMCA, and are passionate about your chosen profession - you're going to look very attractive.
3. Use common friends
Tell friends you share with the ex how well you're doing. Give them examples of how you've moved on and made an effort to improve the way you live your life. This information will eventually get back to you ex and perhaps pique their interest. It may intrigue them enough to start thinking about you again.
4. Bump into them
If you don't run into them at some point you're never going to know whether or not you've got a chance at getting back together. This may sound stalker-esque but it simply has to happen. If you don't see them again there's no chance of reconciliation.
And don’t make it obvious you’re trying to bump into them. Let them think it was fate, not careful planning, that brought the two of you together again.
