Make Love Work

If you have recently gone through a break up but now have a strong desire to recommit to the relationship, you may be wondering how you can get back together with your ex. It is common to want immediate results, but it is far better to take a deep breath and develop a plan of action.

It’s normal to feel emotionally out of balance and uncertain of how you should handle things. First of all, what you should not do is make numerous phone calls to your ex begging and pleading for his/her return. This will likely make the situation worse and cause your ex to back further away. Nobody desires to be suffocated. At this point, the best thing to do is just the opposite of what you are feeling. Do you have an urge to make contact with your ex? Don’t do it! Do you feel like crawling under a rock and shutting the whole world out? Don’t do it! Deciding to recommit to a past relationship is a critical decision that must be handled with due respect. These three tips will give you help in determining if you can get back together with your ex and recommit with a renewed passion. (Further information can be found on “How to Get Your Ex Boyfriend Back” here.)

1. Accept the Facts. Since the break up happened, there is likely a good deal of tension and stress between the two of you. Both of you have to have a little room and separation to be able get on down the road a little ways. It’s critical to show that you understand the breakup and are okay with things for the time being.  Although this is probably the opposite of how you feel, it will relieve the pressure the other person is experiencing and actually gives him/her the time to think about the relationship from a new perspective. It also should allow you to look at different alternatives that you may have available to you. If being away makes you miss that person all the more, then perhaps you both will understand that you must get back together.
2. Cut Off Communication. Making contact with your ex destroys the “thinking time” you both desperately need. By stopping the communication with your ex, you essentially show him that things are ok with you. Taking a break away from each other actually could increase the chances of your ex coming back when he has a few moments to look back on the significance of the relationship. Time apart is one of the greatest ways to come to an understanding of how much the other person means to you.
3. Make Plans to Get Back Together. Ultimately, a time will come when it’s necessary to plan a time to meet and further discuss your relationship and your future. After taking a little while to think through things, you both have to come to the realization if the relationship is worth saving and determine if love will win out. A long-lasting relationship takes a deep devoted commitment from both individuals involved in the relationship.
