So you just broke up with your partner and it feels horrible. Right now, you're worrying and asking yourself questions like "will my ex call?".
What you must know before you go any further is that you need to move on with your life-- with or without your ex. If you want anyone to feel attracted to you, you must feel successful first. That being said, here are common questions regarding getting your ex to call you.
Q: Will my ex call me if I initiate contact?
A: This depends on what you say. If you make up some sort of crisis then they will definitely call back. Of course, if they find out you're lying then there's no way the two of you can get back together because you are using trickery and deceit to get their attention..
However, if you are calling your ex to let them know they should come pick up their stuff, then your ex would most likely thank you for informing them about the situation.
Q: Will my ex call me if I became friends with their friends?
A: Hanging out with friends of your ex is only a good idea if you really became close to them while being with your ex.
Otherwise, you can be sure that your ex will find out and start thinking that you only want them back and that is why you are hanging out with their friends. They might call you, but it's to tell you to leave their friends alone!
Q: Will my ex call me if I become extra nice to them, like perhaps give them presents?
A: This move would depend on the love language your ex understands. If your ex have always loved receiving gifts then there's a good chance that they will call back and say thank you. Of course, this doesn't mean you would be in a relationship again. If material things don't matter to them then you won't be hearing from your ex. Don't feel devastated by this. What you should do is do something your ex actually likes.
Q: If I don't contact them, will my ex call?
A: Your ex will call you if they still want you back. It may not be as soon as you wish but it could definitely happen. Stay busy while exercising patience. Your ex will call you voluntarily if they want to. What you don't want to do right now is annoy them. You must realize that you're a worthy person even though you don't feel like it right now. Do you want to be with a person who doesn't want you? What you must learn to do is to live without your ex. You should not rely on your ex to make you feel happy or complete. The only person that is responsible for your feelings is yourself, not anybody else.
The more you practice relying on yourself to be happy, the better chance you can attract your ex or new potential love interest in your life. Move on and start concentrating on yourself.
