Breakups
are frequently uncomfortable, and occasionally brutally painful. There are
several crucial actions you must do and issues you must take into account if
you've recently broken up and now want to start dating your ex-girlfriend
again. And regrettably, not all of them are simple. However, they are
plausible. Continue reading to learn more.
Taking Time to Reflect
Breakups are difficult. It's normal to miss someone's company and
the sense of security the relationship may have given you after breaking up
with them. Beyond that, being alone after a breakup frequently involves having
to deal with unpleasant emotions that you would much prefer not feel. As a
result, your first instinct might be to wish for things to return to their
previous state, which is at least known and frequently somewhat reassuring.
You
should take some time to reflect on why the relationship ended and whether your
reasons for wanting to get back together are sincere or merely reflexive before
talking to your ex.
Don't
continue if your reasons for wanting to reconcile are based on irrational or
cowardly feelings. Instead, put your attention on taking care of yourself,
getting serious, and handling the inevitable after-breakup suffering in a
mature manner.
Stop
if your reasons for getting back together include the desire to get the
opportunity to hurt her in any manner, save face in front of friends and
family, or prove to yourself or others that you can win her over if you so
choose. That is not a good reason to pursue a relationship with anyone, let
alone an ex. You'll only make both of you more uncomfortable and emotionally
traumatic. Instead, keep going and make the decision to handle your emotions
like an adult.
Think very carefully about what ended the relationship. This
phase is crucial for two main reasons: first, you should carefully consider why
you want to reconcile; second, the relationship terminated for a reason, and if
you want to reconcile, you must be ready to face that reason.
She'll
know you're serious and open to change if you show her you've thought about the
relationship and are eager to learn from past errors. She will be more likely
to reevaluate the relationship if you approach your ex with a thoughtful
reaction to previous issues and a commitment to change. For instance, you may
say, "I've thought about why we broke up, and I think part of it was
because I didn't understand that you got irritated at me for being late, you
were really upset because you felt like I wasn't making you a priority, and I'd
like to fix that.
Admitting
your mistakes will demonstrate your commitment to the relationship and your
want to repair the connection rather than just getting back together for the
sake of it.
Keep
your distance. You are more likely to ruin your chances of getting back together
the more you pursue her, especially right after the split when she needs her
own space apart from you.
Not
only is it annoying, but trying to get back into her life right away by text,
call, email, or another method comes out as desperate. Nothing is more likely
to convince her that breaking up with you was the proper move than your
clinginess and lack of maturity in not backing down.
If
you can, wait for her to approach you. The benefit of letting her approach you
first is that it puts the initiative in your hands and gives you some breathing
room to bring up your relationship again. She may withdraw, possibly for good,
if you try to force the topic before she's ready.
Focus on you for a while. Don't dwell on the
breakup of the relationship or give getting back together your undivided
attention. Rather, give yourself some alone time. Get back into your favourite
activities, spend time with friends, and reacquaint yourself with who you are on
your own.
Avoid
dwelling on how the relationship ended or focusing solely on reconciliation.
Take some alone time instead. Reconnect with your favourite pastimes, spend
time with friends, and get comfortable with who you are on your own.
Approaching Your Ex
Do the right thing. Make sure your ex is available
and that you truly have her best interests at heart before you make any
attempts to get in touch with her.
Keep
your distance from the relationship if she is seeing someone else. Wait till
she is not in a relationship.
Before
attempting to approach her again, put aside any jealousy, hatred, or bitterness
if you genuinely care about her and her happiness.
Network. You might think about enlisting
their assistance if you are confident in your motivations and if you get along
well with her pals.
But
be careful; if her friends decide to speak up against you rather than for you,
this could have a very negative impact.
However,
if you can enlist the aid of her pals, they could prove to be crucial allies in
furthering your mission.
Start slow. When you've had enough space and
are prepared to try contacting her, do it in an unobtrusive manner.
Never
begin a conversation with something overly sentimental, such as "I really
want us to get back together" or the dreaded "we need to
discuss."
Make
it clear that you're merely meeting together as friends to catch up on each
other's lives and not to try desperately to mend fences or settle score.
Set
arrange a meeting in a relaxed, neutral environment. suggest grabbing a bite to
eat or a coffee. A place that holds emotional significance for the two of you,
such as a cafe you used to frequent together or the restaurant where you had
your first date, should be avoided.
Keep things casual. Aim for a similar low-pressure
setting if your initial meeting goes well and you're both open to doing it
again. Make it plain that you're just interested in getting back together as
friends at this time and don't take this as a sign that you're getting back
together.
You
can bring up your relationship and whether you two might want to explore the
prospect of getting back together if, after some non-pressured time together,
you both feel that there is still a strong connection between you. You may use
language like, "I've been reflecting about our split, and I believe I now
fully comprehend the issues that caused it. Do you wish to discuss it?"
You
should back off if she rejects this suggestion. If you try to convince her when
she's not interested, the more damage you'll do to your own cause. If she seems
more receptive after some more time, revisit the subject.
Re-Starting the Relationship
Take responsibility. You must first accept
responsibility for whatever went wrong the first time around if you want to
restart your relationship.
Set a
time and place to talk with each other calmly and maturely about old grudges.
Own
up to your faults and accept responsibility for them. Instead of attempting to
downplay or deny what you did wrong, demonstrate that you are aware of it and
that you wish to avoid making the same mistakes again. As an illustration, you
might say, "I'm aware that I didn't listen well, and that's my problem. I
didn't give you the time and attention you required because I was too
preoccupied worrying about work (or school, or whatever). I apologise and would
like to change that."
Focus on moving forward. This is true whether you
make up with your ex-girlfriend or not.
If
you do manage to reconcile, don't spend too much time regretting the past or
berating one other for what went wrong. Instead, concentrate on talking about
what each of you wants from the relationship and how you can support each other
in achieving it. Instead of concentrating on what you did or did not do in the
past, think about what you desire going forward. For instance, you could
clarify, "Because I didn't inform you of my intentions well enough in
advance, I had the impression that you became irritated with me whenever I went
out with my friends. Is that accurate?" After that, offer solutions to the
issue, such as a commitment to provide at least 5 hours' notice in the future.
If
you are unsuccessful in rekindling your relationship, try not to dwell on your
mistakes or the wrongdoing she committed against you. Start to move on after
taking what you can from the relationship's successes and failures.
Have
a game plan. Have a clear game plan in place to guide you if the two of you
decide to give the relationship another shot.
Clearly
define the needs and desires you each have for the partnership. What do you
believe you weren't getting from the relationship before? What can we do to help
you get that? Similarly, without being accusatory, explain to her what you
require and work out how the two of you can assist you in obtaining it.
Regarding
your obligation to take care of such requirements and wants, set fair
expectations.
Determine
to talk—a lot. Check in with each other on a regular basis to discuss the
relationship and your degrees of satisfaction. It's especially crucial for a
relationship with history to address these challenges head-on.
