I experienced an emotional breakup with my ex girlfriend. I would have liked to resume the relationship as soon as possible but I had to face the reality that this barely happens. My first instinct after the breakup was to call text and email my past lover. Fortunately , fact sat in and I spotted that these actions alone wouldn't bring the person I love back into my life. I'd like to debate positive steps to getting my ex back while relaying my story to readers.

Positive step number one

I didn't contact my ex for a while. It was tempting to contact my ex by any means possible but I fought the urge to do so. My past love informed me that she needed space , I respected her wishes. At first I would have liked to forget her request but I realized quickly that I could be misconstrued as a stalker , therefore , I respected her request.

Positive step number two

Even though it was tricky, I accepted the incontrovertible fact that the relationship is over. I did not wish to waste my time indulging in the emotion of denial. I had to allow myself time to begin the process of recovery. There are times in our lives that we must leave eventualities up to fate. If the relationship is meant to be, it'll occur.

Positive step number three

After giving my ex fiance the space she requested, I respected her wishes and did not contact her. After awhile, she probably did reach me. I believe that allowing our exes to make the first contact is significant in getting back together. When I viewed her number on my cell phone, my heart immediately soared. I quickly reminded myself that a simple phone call didn't represent the undeniable fact that she wished to get back together. I waited twenty four hours and called her back. She did not mention getting back together and only wished to talk. I kept the conversation polite and short and informed her I needed to be somewhere at a particular time and I hung up the phone with a polite "goodbye".

Positive step number 4

I recall the day my ex called me and wished to "get together". I was torn on this issue because overtly, I was still crazy about her. I didn't know if she wished to get back together or if she was bored. I contained my excitement and in my most civilised voice, informed her I was free. She suggested that we meet out for coffee the day after. I told her I was tied up that day but I could meet her out the following day at three PM ( I did not want her to think I was available for her any time she beckoned ).

I met her out for coffee on the day we designated and I kept the conversation light. I didn't ask her about her dating life. I evaded questions about my own. I was not dating anyone but I did not need her to know this. In my eyes, she lost the privilege in knowing about my personal life when she dumped me ( a touch of antagonism there ).

Positive step number five

Eventually, my ex did want to get back together. I straight away wished to reunite but the simple fact was, bringing together after a breakup needs time. If you want to do things right, you will hold off on getting back with anybody till the flaws in the relationship are dealt with by you and your ex girl. I made my ex girl notice that she made a mistake by dumping me with the steps mentioned in this piece. We are now brought together but with a better point of view on not simply the relationship but also our lives together. I in no fashion was perfect but I was hurt that my past love dumped me due to a misunderstanding. I wanted her to realize that people aren't completely perfect and relationships shouldn't be lost in the heat of the instant.

These positive steps in getting my ex back worked for me as I'm hoping they are working for you as well in your journey in coping with hurtful breakups.
