How To Get Your Ex-Girlfriend Back: THE Step-by-Step Guide

Not very long ago, my girlfriend broke up with me. She told me to “move on”, and she wouldn’t even answer my calls. Amazingly though, a few months later, we were back together and engaged. We couldn’t be happier, and it’s all because of an old friend of mine from way back, who showed me that there’s a specific ‘how to get your ex-girlfriend back’ process, which you NEED to follow if you are going to succeed in getting your girl back.
NOTE: The following process will tap into the mating and attraction side of human nature, meaning that it will work only on women who are still ripe for reproduction (i.e women under the age of 40).
how-to-get-your-ex-girlfriend-backThe things that 99% of guys do in trying to get their girl back actually have the total opposite of the desired effect. That’s right, all the shit you want to do to get her back (call her, tell her you miss her and love her, beg her to come back etc.) will actually repulse her and drive her further away.
That’s why I HAD to create this guide, which talks you through how to win her back in the way that works, simple step by simple step:

Step 1. Tell me who broke up with who

The approach we will take on how to get your ex-girlfriend back will depend on who initiated the breakup. This is to say that different breakup circumstances require different techniques.
So did she finish with you, or did you dump her? If she ended the relationship and you want her back, carry on to step 2 below.
If you dumped her but you’ve realized you made a huge mistake, and now you want her back, go here, because all steps on this page are not relevant to your situation. 

Step 2. Let’s figure out why she broke up with you

We need to make sure that, whatever it is you did, that made her want to finish with you – it ends now. You gotta stop doing it, and this can only happen if you know exactly what IT was.
She will likely have told you some wishy-washy reason for why she ended it. Maybe she said you two have “grown apart” or perhaps she gave you the classic, “I just need some space”.
Whatever she said, it will almost certainly have NOT given you any clue as to what exactly went wrong. This is typical of women, but I’m a fellow guy who’s on your side, and I can give it to you straight, so here goes…
There are 3 possibilities for why she dumped you, and I’ve put them into categories A, B and C. You need to figure out which Category your situation belongs in. 95% of guys will fall into category A.

Category A. Did she lose attraction for you?

When a girl stops feeling attracted to her boyfriend, the relationship goes stale for her, and if she has any dating market value left (i.e. if she’s still hot enough to draw in a decent new guy) then she will dump the boyfriend and sooner or later she’ll go get a new guy (one who she DOES feel attraction for).
As I said, this is the most common situation for guys wanting to get their ex back – he got dumped by the chick because she lost attraction for him.

Here’s how to know if loss of attraction is your break up situation:

Think about your relationship with her in the past few weeks/months/year, and answer YES or NO to the following questions:

Did you try your best to be extra nice to her all the time?

If you were nice to your girlfriend literally all the time, she would have picked up on the subtext that you were trying to get her to accept and like you – that you were vying for her approval.
The unwritten laws of the ‘social food chain’ dictate that inferior people seek approval from superior ones, and not the other way around. Women naturally know this, and by trying to get your girl to like you more (approval seeking), using ‘nice’ behaviour, you made her feel like she’s superior to you.
getting-your-ex-back-superior-manEvolution and the desire to have the strongest possible offspring, dictate that your girl gets attracted to guys she sees as superior to herself. All women have this mechanism wired into their DNA in order to keep the human race strong.
The problem with this for you has been that your nice behaviour has prevented your woman from seeing you as a superior man, for the reason I outlined above (approval seeking). And of course if your girl doesn’t see you as superior, she then loses attraction for you. This is when thoughts of ending the relationship enter her head.

Did you do everything she ever asked (or told) you to do?

Picture this: you have two people, a master and a slave. Who do you think is higher in the social hierarchy? The master, obviously. By accommodating your ex girl’s every desire or demand, you behaved like a slave (inferior) and she behaved like a master (superior).
Women are attracted to men who they perceive to be at least a little higher than them in the social food chain (read: superior men). Another way of putting this is, women are attracted to men who have a higher Dating Market Value (DMV).
So with you doing everything she wanted, your ex would have looked at you as inferior to her (lacking in DMV compared to her), in a world where women are attracted to men they see as being superior and high in DMV.
In other words, giving in to the desires and instructions of women on an even semi-regular basis is unattractive to them, and if you were doing it, then it will have definitely been a part of the reason she dumped you.
That said, if you asked her about this, she would never admit it. Why not? She cannot. Attraction is a very primal and subconscious process that has been in place for thousands of years, so she won’t be consciously aware of why she lost attraction for you.

Did you give her compliments on a regular basis?

A girl with any degree of DMV (dating market value) will start to think of a guy (even a boyfriend) who regularly compliments her, as a fan boy. Do hot female celebs date their fans? Fuck no! They date other celebs, who have a DMV as high as, or higher than, their own.
By complimenting your ex consistently, you basically showed her that her DMV was higher than yours. She lost attraction to you because of this and it led to a break up. See the master/slave answer above for more details, and also the first answer I gave, which was about being nice all the time.

Did you give her gifts regularly, especially at the moments that she showed her demands?

ways-to-get-your-ex-girlfriend-back-for-goodConsistent gifts will have made her think you were trying too hard to win her approval. It sets a frame where you are demonstrating that it is YOU trying to win HER over, and thus she detects that she is superior to you.
Women are not attracted to men they feel superior to, so if you were buying lots of gifts, you can consider it to have helped kill the attraction/relationship.

Did you make it very clear to her that she is the most important thing that you have in your life?

It would make logical sense that this should boost attraction – surely every girl wants to be the center of her boyfriend’s universe, right?
Wrong. The truth is a girlfriend wants to be important to you but she also needs you to have other activities in your life that don’t include her. Because, if you’d made your life all about her, it’d be a case where she sees that she’s 100% won you over, and women get bored of men they’ve won over fully. Why? It makes them think maybe they could do better, and that’s the last thing you want your ex thinking.
Girls need that element of challenge in their guy…she needs to feel that she won you, but not 100% yet, and to keep her on her toes/from getting bored, you should never let it quite reach 100% in her mind.

Did you stress your commitment to her?

Again, showing her that she’s got you 100% by the balls like this will make her bored, which equals reduced attraction that contributes to a break up. It’ll also indicate to her that you have no other viable dating options (because if you did have such options, why would you be so concerned with stressing your commitment?).
You having a lack of viable dating options tells her that your DMV is lower than hers, meaning her attraction for you dies.

Did you usually contact her first, on any given day?

Women are a lot like cats. If you chase them, they run away. But, if you tempt them in, they will come to you on their own.
Your constant attempts to call or message her were creating a frame in which you were chasingher. But why does this kill attraction?
Because it shows a number of things:
1. You are desperate for her attention
From this desperation she realizes that you have no other options for female interaction, which lowers your DMV in her eyes. Attraction declines from this reduced DMV.
2. Her DMV is high in relation to yours
She thinks this because it is you pursuing her most of the time. She concludes (perhaps subconsciously) that a guy with high enough DMV (for her) would wait to be contacted over 50% of the time – “if he’s a high value guy, why would he do all the work?”
He wouldn’t.
3. You are insecure about what she might be up to
From this she can see that you doubt your own dating market value to a point where she might go and find another guy. If you doubt yourself, she’s absolutely gonna doubt you too. Reduced attraction.

SIDE NOTE: One thing I want you to see here is that to your ex or any other girl, your DMV/ perceived superiority is as high as your behaviour makes it, and is only partially related to your job, income, looks etc. This is why no guy reading this has any excuse for not being able to become the kind of guy his ex wants for a relationship.
YOU control the amount of DMV that women perceive in you, meaning you DO have the power to get her back, and to get girls hotter than her if you want them. And if it’s the last thing I do, I will help you to become the attractive man who has this power over women (yes, her too), regardless of your occupation, salary and looks.

Did you tell her you love her before she did the same?

Another case of her realizing that she’s ‘got you’, and that the challenge in you has been defeated. Boredom sets in for her from here and then it’s just a matter of time until you find yourself going to a search engine and typing, “how to get your ex-girlfriend back”.

When decisions needed to be made, did you leave it to her to decide?

how-to-get-back-an-ex-girlfriendWomen are submissive by nature and they want their man to be the polar opposite (dominant). Leaving decisions (could be about anything) to her, is submissive behaviour by you, and it places her in the dominant role – a role that the female kind doesn’t take naturally to.
The result is that she thinks you’re weak for not taking the lead, and obviously if she perceives weakness in you then attraction goes down. I mean come on, it would go against thousands of years of evolution for women to feel attracted to weakness in a man.

Did/do you have photos of the two of you together where she is looking at the camera, but you are focused on her?

A classic tell that you are way more involved in the relationship than she is. Why? Because you’re fixed on her, but she’s not the same towards you. It’s obvious. And if she knew you were more serious about her than she was about you (she totally knew – women have a 6th sense for this shit), she’d soon have been bored from the lack of challenge you gave. She’d have thought, “If I can get him devoted to me THIS much, then perhaps I can do better”. 

Did she regularly get all bitchy about something, and then you would end up saying sorry?

Letting a woman get away with giving you shit like this is a recipe for one thing: lost respect – namely any respect she had for you. Why? Because she knows that a superior guy who is worthy of her respect would not tolerate such BS from her. 
Lost respect translates to lost attraction because a woman cannot feel attraction for a man she doesn’t respect/ feel is superior. If you even went as far as saying sorry to her at times when she gave you shit, then you can double the amount of respect and attraction lost because women don’t like submissive men. Submissive = inferior.

Did these bitchy outbursts of hers affect you emotionally?

Did she manage to turn your emotions negative with her displays of bitchiness? If yes, then she would have seen this as weakness in you and chicks don’t dig weak guys = lost attraction.

SIDE NOTE: You may feel as if I am really grilling your approach to relationships here, but I promise there’s a positive purpose to it. You need to see what went wrong so that next time, your girl stays super attracted.


Did you give her signs of affection (kisses etc) more regularly than she gave you them?

get-her-back-guide
This is another example of the guy trying harder than the girl and her perceiving her own DMV as the higher of the two. She perceives this because the person trying harder in the relationship is considered to be compensating for his/her lower relative DMV. Attraction reduced.

With sex, did you verbally ask her for it? Did you ask to change positions? Or just as bad, did you let her take control in bed?

Yet another example of the man in the relationship not taking the lead, and perhaps even behaving submissively. Nowhere is the male dominance/ female submissiveness dynamic more important than in the bedroom. Bucket loads of attraction gets lost this way.
Equally though, bucket loads of attraction can be gained in the bedroom, and if with my help you can get her back into bed, I’ll show you how to use sex to make sure her attraction for you stays sky high. Keep reading.

Did/do you think she’s the best girl who you are capable of getting?

If you’ve been answering yes to lots of questions above, then it’s likely that you will answer yes to this one too. Why? Because believing that your GF is the best chick you can realistically get, creates a scarcity mindset which brings out all the desperate and try-hard (i.e. unattractive) behaviours that we discussed above.

Answered “Yes” to a few of those questions? Loss of attraction caused your break up

If you behaved in 3+ of the above ways during the latter stages of your relationship with your ex, then the reason you lost her is because her attraction for you faded out. She will likely have told you some other bullshit reason for the break up, but the fact that you answered yes to the questions above, coupled with the amount of sense that the explanations I gave make, shows that dying attraction is unmistakably the cause.
What about evidence that my theories represent reality? If you’ve been using many of those behaviours I asked you about in the questions above, and you also got dumped, then the fact that both happened in your own life, and that I was able to call both out despite the fact I’ve never met you – that should be all the evidence you need.
You’re probably now feeling very defeated. Many of your tactics for keeping your girl sweet have unfortunately worked against you, and this leaves you asking, “So what the fuck do I do?! How do I get my ex-girlfriend back?”

How To Get Your Ex Back


Sometimes, you just need to give the relationship one more chance.
Breaking up Sucks! Everyone has the same advice,  just forget your ex and move on. But that’s not always easy, is it?
Sometimes, you want to fight for the relationship. Sometimes you just know deep in your heart that if only you couldget another chance with your ex, things would work out. Sometimes, you just can’t close that chapter unless you get another try.
If you think this is one of those times then you are in the right place. This guide is all about getting that one last chance to make things right. This guide will give you the knowledge that you need to get your ex-boyfriend or ex-girlfriend back and keep them. If your relationship still doesn’t work, then you can rest assured that this relationship wasn’t meant to be. But if it works, you will be glad that you took the time to read these 3 steps.
These 3 steps are based on simple psychological techniques that work extremely well after a breakup. It’s not some mind tricks and cheap gimmicks that you will use to trick your ex into getting back together. If you are planning to trick your ex or force them into being with you, you are just going to end up in another miserable breakup. This guide will teach you how to start a new relationship with your ex; a relationship that actually has a chance of being a long lasting healthy relationship. Not the same old one which ended in this breakup.
The first step, of this guide is to understand the biggest mistakes that people make after a breakup and AVOID THEM. Doing these mistakes will not only drive your ex further away. They will also make you feel rejected and unworthy.

#1 Being Needy and Begging


It’s one of the most common reactions to the breakup. If someone has decided to breakup with you, begging is not going to change their mind.
Begging and pleading makes you look like a needy person. And that is unattractive, very unattractive.
Do you think they want to breakup because they want you to beg them to take them back? Nobody wants to be with a needy person. And even if your begging worked, it’s going to lead to a relationship where you will end up being a doormat.

#2 The Doormat Syndrome

It comes right after begging and pleading; accepting everything while throwing your self-worth away in the trashcan (aka Doormat Syndrome). You agree everything your ex wants without even considering your happiness.
You are not a doormat
Don’t Let Them Walk All Over You
You put your self-worth, your happiness, your dreams and your entire life on the back burner just so you could be with your ex. Sometimes, people do it just to hold on to the possibility of being with their ex in the future. It’s a direct consequence of begging and pleading. It makes your ex think “Well, if you are that desperate to be with me, then you must accept everything that I want.
In most cases, if you agree to be a doormat, your ex will keep you around to satisfy their emotional or sexual needs, but they won’t commit to you.
If they do commit to you, it will probably be an unhappy, smothering or even abusive relationship.
And you know what happens to a relationship where one person is a doormat? They end. Sooner or later they all end. If you want to get your ex back and give it a real chance, please do not become doormat.

#3 The Phone Catastrophe


There are so many ways to contact a person these days, it’s almost ridiculous. You can call them, text them, facebook them, tweet them, and so much other stuff. And this comfortable technology leads to one of the worst mistakes people make after a breakup, texting their ex all the time (sometimes hundreds to thousands of texts a day).
Just imagine a scenario where you don’t want to talk to a person and they are sending you a text message every 5 minutes. Your inbox is filled with hundreds of messages by them, even though you haven’t replied to even one. And later on at night, that person gets drunk and calls you and start saying complete and utter non-sense. What would you think of that person? Would it make you want to start a new relationship with them?
Texting your ex all the time and calling them drunk is only going to make them less attracted to you. If you want to win your ex back, you’ve got to give them some time alone. You also need to give yourself some time without your ex. And calling and texting is not going to help anyone.

#4 Unwanted and Unnecessary Affection


Trust me; your ex knows how much you love them. And they also know that “you care for them”, “you want them to be happy”, “that they make you happy”, and “that they complete you”.
They were in a relationship with you too and they probably care for you too. But that’s not what caused the breakup.
Your ex doesn’t need to hear all this right now. It’s only going to make them put their defenses up. Your ex has decided to breakup with you for a reason and every time you express your infinite love for them, you are making them think of that reason in their mind.

#5 Using Pity To Get Your Ex Back

Pity doesn't work.
Even this kids ex didn’t take him back ’cause of pity. What chance do you have?
Do you post sad facebook status messages all day? Do you hope that your ex will see them and come back to you? Whenever your ex calls, do you tell them how much you miss them and how much lonely you are without them? Do you think your ex will take you back because of pity?
First of all getting back together with your ex because you are lonely is not a good idea. What you are experiencing is just one of the symptoms of breakup. Everyone feels like this. And it doesn’t last forever. Secondly, acting like this is only going to make your ex less attracted to you. And even if they do feel pity for you, they are not going to get back together because of it.
No one wants to be with a sad person. If you want to get your ex back, you will have to learn to be happy. If nothing else, at least act like you are not miserable.


#6 Being Friends with Your Ex


If you think that by being friends with your ex, you can stay in their lives and hopefully get back together again, you are just plain wrong. By being friends you are not giving yourself and your ex enough time and space to heal. Not to mention, you will probably end up getting friendzoned by your ex. You could end up listening to your ex complaining about their new lovers (cue : Ex-girlfriends)  or they might propose being friends with benefits (cue: Ex-boyfriends).Friendzone
In either case, you are just going to get hurt and not get what you want; a committed relationship with your ex.  If you are serious about getting your ex back, or being happy in your life, make sure you never force them for being friends or even decline their offer to do so; at least, not until you are done with step 2.

#7 Panicking when your ex starts dating

Breakup is hard as it is, especially if you are still obsessing over your ex and wondering all the time whether or not they miss you. On top of that, if your ex starts dating someone else, it’s almost feels like someone punched you really hard in your stomach (while wearing a wolverine claw). Nothing can prepare you for this feeling. But it happens. And no, it’s nothing to worry about.
The fact is, if your ex starts dating someone else soon after a breakup, then it’s definitely arebound relationship. And rebound relationships never last. In fact, it just means that after you broke up, your ex had a huge hole in their life that they are trying to fill with someone new. In many cases, they rush into it too soon and things get too serious really fast. There is nothing to worry about as the faster it moves, the faster it will end.
In almost all the cases of rebound relationship, people soon realize that this new relationship isn’t right for them and end it. So, even if your ex starts dating someone new, do not freak out. It’s just a rebound relationship and it will end soon.
If you try to convince your ex that this new person is not right for them, it’s only going to make them want it more (think of telling someone to not press a button and they’ll definitely want to press it). They might even let the rebound relationship run longer just to prove you wrong.
If you are in a situation like this, the best thing to do is just be cool about it. Do not give your opinion about their new relationship and let it run its course. Just be cool about the whole thing and try to concentrate on your life rather than theirsThere are a lot of things that you need to do after a breakup and before you can get your ex back. That’s what step 2 is all about

DO WOMEN REALLY WANT CHIVALRY?


Q: I keep hearing women want chivalry, but then I get dirty looks sometimes when I hold doors or offer help. What’s the deal?
A: I’ve had many a male complain to me about chivalry, not knowing how to navigate it anymore. “It’s dead, and women killed it,” one guy bitterly told me not too long ago. Ouch.
I get it. I really do. We ladies probably seem impossible to please, because everyone’s got a different idea of what’s acceptable now. You’ve got those complaining you’re less than gentlemanly one moment, and then another set chastising you for not taking them seriously as independent women the next. You’re either the sexist jerk for lending an unprompted hand, or the inconsiderate jerk for not doing so. How do you win?
Well, you can’t win. At least not all the time. Chivalry all depends on the woman. I know that answer is the worst, but keep listening.
Sometimes, you’re going to offer to help with those bags she’s carrying and get a biting glare. And yes, the chauvinistic judgments will no doubt shine through that stink eye she gives you, but please—ignore it. Truth is, women are wired to expect chivalry. We don’t need you to stand up when we leave a table or get every door, box and tab. But deep down, we still appreciate when guys to treat us like ladies. Get our car when it’s raining. Hold the door. Step in if we get hassled by some drunken idiot on the subway. (We hate that.)
Why? It’s a litmus test. It’s how we weed out the good guys from the toxic ones. Chivalry takes effort. Effort means investment. Most women want to know you’re invested in them as human beings from the start of dating, straight on through the phase when we settle into the relationship. But don’t just listen to me. “I still believe chivalry is alive and well,” says dating and relationship expert Julie Spira. “Don’t get discouraged by a few dirty looks. Keep acting like a gentleman. You’ll stand out in the crowd and will find a lady to appreciate you.”
So, the bottom line: We don’t need you to be the infallible knight in shining armor—but when you try, we literally melt into a little puddle of smitten goo.

5 Ways To Keep Your Relationship Alive


It makes you happier with each passing day, needs constant upkeep to maintain its mojo, and provides you with endless entertainment. No, we aren’t talking about an Audi R8 sports car—we’re talking about your relationship. If you’re in a good one, making it last long term isn't rocket science—really. In fact, we found research to back that up.
Scientists at the University of Illinois recently analyzed 45 studies and 12,273 reports on relationships and narrowed down their findings into five strategies for keeping the bond strong with your significant other. According to the pros, here are the best strategies to include in your relationship game plan:
1. Clear the air. Talk about whatever's on your mind, even if it’s just that you’re annoyed she left her makeup all over the bathroom counter. Putting it off will only force you to bottle up emotions and that could lead to passive aggressive actions later on.
2. Get happy. If you’re pissed off, chances are your crappy mood will rub off on everyone around you, including your girlfriend. Sure, sometimes a bad mood is unavoidable, but do your best to stay positive..especially on date night.
3. Divide and conquer. Who knew that simply divvying up chores could help your relationship? Taking part in shared responsibilities reminds her that you’re committed—and it gets things around the house done a heck of a lot faster which will make her even happier.
4. Mix it up. Of course you love your one-on-one time with her, but including friends and family in your activities can actually help you out as a couple. It shows your girlfriend that you are interested in the people she cares about and gives her the opportunity to get to know your crew as well.
5. Leave no doubts. Simply put, make sure she knows that you are 100% into her—and not just for her looks. Encourage her to achieve her own goals and lend support whenever she needs it most. You don’t have to make an elaborate production out of building her up; a sum of small daily gestures should do the trick.
So, what’s the end result of all these rules? A rock solid relationship. If it all sounds like too much to take on at once, don't panic. Just start with one strategy and build your way up. The University of Illinois study found that a person who practices one of the strategies is more likely to practice the others as well, so one may be enough! Fights over dirty dishes and leaving the toilet seat up or down will still ensue, but in the long run remember that it’s the effort that counts.

Should I Try To Get My Ex Back?


Q: I thought breaking up was the best thing, but now I want to get my ex back so bad it’s killing me. How do I make that happen?
A: Whoa. Hold on there, sport. Before we go after your ex, let’s have a quick chat, okay?
See, there’s this post-breakup phenomenon where—for a solid period of time—all you want to do in the whole entirety of your waking existence is be back with that person, no matter how much you know it’s not going to work out. Why? It bites when the person you love is cut off, cold turkey. The pain feels like this— “%*$#!!!!”—pretty much 24/7, and you think it’s never going to pass. But, in most instances, it just does. You move on. That said, it's hard to figure it all out. The trick is determining  whether you’ve got a regular case of the brutal Bad-Breakup-it is, or whether you actually made an epic mistake. Here’s the self-test:
Question #1: Do I want to win her back—or do I just want to win?
Sometimes wanting her back has nothing to do with wanting her, but rather it’s a way of proving your ex still needs you. It can be totally confusing to differentiate between the two, so here’s how to decide: Make a list of pros and cons. “Write down what you liked about her versus what you didn't like,” says Match.com dating expert Whitney Casey. “If the list of the pros isn’t longer than the list of cons, let's stop the exercise here.” In that case, go play pick-up basketball or video games with your buddies instead of re-opening that can of Relationship Fail. You need a challenge... just not this one.
Question #2: Can I identify the reason this relationship headed South?
If you can’t pinpoint the issues that caused the rift in the first place, you can’t get back together. So it’s time to make another list. “This isn't the blame game. This is an introspective look at your actions while in the relationship and how they may have impacted your partner,” Casey says. “Pick the top three things from that list that you earnestly feel like you can fix, like not calling when you are out, flirting with other girls, or arriving home late. These are small concessions that can make a considerable difference in your relationship.” If you don’t see any problem on your end yet? Then you definitely aren’t ready to tango a second time.
Question #3: Can I own up to my side of the mess?
Imagine seeing your ex again: Can you look her in the eye, tell her you miss her and take responsibility for your half of your relationship’s demise—without breathing a word about her part in it? “This is the final gut check,” says Casey. “Are you doing this for the right reasons?” Tell her you would like to apologize sincerely. Go to a neutral place, preferably where there is no drinking involved, and bring your list from #2 so you can read it to her. This will let her know you really did your homework and are really ready to take action. Then, ask her: ‘Can you help me make these changes and give it another try?’” Say life sucks without her. Man up with a plan for change.
If you both agree to give it another go, then make a real relationship contract on that list of yours—and sign it. If you can’t stick to that, then say goodbye for good, no matter how bad it burns.

10 WAYS TO GET YOUR EX BACK


You'll need some next-level strategies to convince her it's worth another round—but these tips should help.

You did the soul-searching, tried the “time apart” thing, dated some other lackluster women, and you've come to a stark realization: Things ain’t gonna get any better than this. You made a huge mistake when you let her go.
And now, you want her back.
It’s not necessarily too late to rekindle the love with your ex—but don’t get rash and make any mediocre moves. You want to do this right, and that means re-engaging with an abundance of caution and more confidence than ever. So here are 10 tips on how to approach her for Round Two.
1. Reconnect with a text: Sometimes absence makes the heart grow fonder—but other times, it causes that heart to seek out another man. Bottom line: Don’t call first. “Try sending a sweet text, not one that will make her think you’re looking for a booty call,” says dating expert Julie Spira. “Think about something that you shared together that might warm her heart.” Example: Was listening to the radio and heard that Coldplay song. Brought back memories of the concert together. Hope you’re doing great. If she responds, she may be open to rekindling the spark. And if she responds with an "Ew, WTF," proceed to step two.
2. Take it slow. You romanced her once already, but that doesn’t mean you get to go from zero to 60 without even getting behind the wheel. So propose getting together—not moving in together. Says Seattle-resident Adria, who took her ex back after a nasty breakup: “He apologized out of the blue after three months of no contact and was very respectful of me. He wasn't pushy about getting back together, which would have been a red flag in my eyes.”
3. Call her, maybe: So far, so good? Great. Suggest a casual date by phone. No texts. No emails. Let her hear your voice and register some sincere effort on your part. “See if she’d like to join you at an art gallery opening, see a movie, or a hike on a sunny day,” says Spira. “It will give you the chance to get together in a relaxed environment, without too much pressure.” But remember, accepting your invite is just that—and not a sure sign she wants to get back together. If she turns you down, give her space. “Don’t beg, cry, or stalk her,” Spira says. “If it’s meant to be, she’ll come around on her own time-table.”
4. Tell her you miss her: If she accepts your date invite, ease in. Ask what she’s been up to, how work is going, if her dog is still peeing on the couch—whatever. Then, if the date is going well and she seems to be warming up (you know, read the signs) say you want her back. Vulnerability on your part might improve your odds of a second chance; don’t just rip the Band-Aids off every old wound. “Open your heart and see how she reacts,” Spira says. “You don’t need to talk about everything that went wrong in the relationship. She knows, you know—keep the conversation light.”
5. Own up: If she seems open, and you want to step up for another at-bat, acknowledge your shortcomings. “If you did something hurtful, make a real apology,” Frances says. “It might be wise to see a therapist to clarify what you did and why, and how best to sort of the problem.” Then, no matter what she did, you need to take responsibility for you—and change. If you weren’t willing to extend an effort to get to know her friends before, tell her you’d be game for drinks as a group. (Yeah, that’s right. Swallow your pride.)

6. Avoid rehashing the past: After you’ve acknowledged the problem, look ahead. “Don’t go down memory lane and hash out all the things you thought were wrong with the relationship,” Spira says. Focus on the positive qualities that brought you together in the first place, like your crazy sense of humor, or the way your laid-back personality complements her type-A tendencies.
7. Use the friend group: Even though you might want a new beginning, you should still tap back into those old loving feelings. An easy way to recreate happy times is to meet up in a safe, familiar environment—like an outing with your mutual friend group. Just make sure you can easily break off from the pack to talk. Alisha, from San Antonio, TX, had an ex take that approach—and it worked. “We were telling stories, joking and laughing together. It was comfortable, fun. Then my ex pulled me aside and asked me if we could give things another try. We talked a lot about our futures, and I felt things could really work.”
8. Don’t compare notes: Look, forget that relationship hiatus even existed. You both up and went on with your lives while you were apart—but that doesn’t mean you need to talk about what went down. “She doesn’t need to hear about the bad dates you went on,” says Spira,“ or about your conquests either.” Would you want to hear about the guys who took your place? Didn’t think so.
9. Tap into your romantic side: While chivalrous acts aren’t the most important thing, they are important. Chocolates, cards and flowers (sent to her office so all her co-workers can get green with envy) are time-honored clichés for a reason: They kind of work. But here’s how to make it a legit, not cheesy, gesture: “Write a love letter,” says Frances. “Tell her why you love her and what it is about her that makes her completely special. It’s OK to rip off lyrics or poetry. Send the letter with flowers. Good, old-fashioned courtship works.”
10. Buy a ring: Relax. This advice isn’t for everyone, obviously. But if you’re absolutely positive about this girl, the ultimate bold move has had unparalleled success, says Frances. “Most of the time, the split is about commitment issues, so you’ve got to be coming back with terms she’ll be happy with.” And even if you’re not ready for the ring? You can learn something here: You have got to step it up and have a plan for the relationship. Period. No woman will rekindle a romance that’s not moving her forward…at least a little bit.

STEP #5. The Grind aka The Ninja Techniques

OK, even though this guide is quite long and covers most of what you need to know on this subject, there are a lot of topics that are not covered here.
Since trying to get your ex back takes time and going through the no contact period is an everyday struggle, I’ve designed Part 5 of this guide to be an email series.

What do you get?

One inspiring, helpful , insightful and motivating email everyday. I have helped thousands of people (somewhere around 50,000) with these emails. The reason why these everyday emails are so effective is because you get a small dose of inspiration, motivation and useful information every day.The no contact period is the most important part of the plan and with Part 5, you will get support during the no contact period.
More importantly, I reveal a lot of secret tactics and tricks that are not mentioned in this guide. Like
  • Using Pattern Breaking
  • Understanding the reason why your ex broke up and what to do about it.
  • What to do if your ex is dating someone else
  • How to write that hand written letter
  • And a lot more.
THANK YOU :)

STEP #4. Contacting Your Ex aka Re-attraction

Remember when your ex left you? They thought of you as a needy, clingy and desperate person with little to no self-respect. After not being in contact with you for a while, they must be wondering what the heck happened to you. They will slowly start to forget that image of yours (the needy desperate one) and start remembering the things they liked about you. They will start remembering the things that they found attractive in you.
And that’s when you contact them, you talk to them and then meet them. Just as they lay eyes on you, BOOM. That’s the new and improved you. YOU version 2.0. They can’t help but wonder what brought so much positive change in you.
re-attracting your ex
“You look amazing. You smell amazing. You look like you are doing great in your life. You look like you’ve been working out. You look happy. You look confident, sexy, fun and attractive. You look like a catch. Why did I break up with you again?” – Your Ex
For that to happen, you need two things.
  1. You should actually bring a positive change in your life and become a confident, happy and attractive person.
  2. You should contact your ex and meet them somewhere.
If you have been following this guide till now, then you know how to go about the first point. So, let’s get straight to the second point.

Contacting Your Ex

Before you contact your ex, here is a checklist of things you need to make sure you’ve done.
  • You followed the no contact rule for at least one month
  • You are no longer a mess as you were after the breakup.
  • You have made a few positive changes in your life.
  • You are absolutely sure that getting back with your ex is a good decision
  • You have gone on at least one date during no contact.
  • You have accepted the breakup and you are OK with the fact that you may never get your ex back and this might never work for you.
  • You have accepted the fact that even if you don’t get your ex back, you will be fine since there are endless opportunities in the world to find love and happiness.
Now, there are two ways that you can contact your ex. One is through a letter or email, and the other one is through text messages. You can also call your ex but I recommend you first build up some attraction using text messages and letter  before calling them.

The Letter

hand written letter
Wouldn’t it be nice to receive a hand written letter in the mail?
A hand written letter is a great way to contact your ex right after you’ve finished no contact. A hand written letter stands out in this age of digital technology. Of course, you can use an email as well.
This letter has three purposes.
  1. To let your ex know that you have accepted the breakup. And you think that it’s for the best. (You are letting them know that you are no longer the needy desperate person who was refusing to accept the breakup.)
  2. To apologize for any of your inappropriate behavior after the breakup. (You want to make sure that everything from the past is forgiven and forgotten.)
  3. To let them know of something exciting that is happening in your life. Don’t reveal too much here. Just tell them something good is happening in your life. You’d love to talk about it, but not now. Because you both need some space and time. (You want to give them something to chew on. They will be thinking about what’s happening in your life and will want to call or text you to talk about it. You are using curiosity to get your ex contact you. Of course, something must be happening in your life. That’s why creating a positive change in your life is absolutely important before contacting your ex.)
If you want a sample letter written for you, you can find in Step 5.

The Text Messages

Text messages should ideally be used after sending the hand written letter to build up attraction. You can even skip the hand written letter and move on directly to text messages. You know your situation and your ex better than anyone, so it’s your decision whether or not you want to use just text messages, just the letter, or both. But I highly recommend you use either one or both of these before actually calling your ex.
Text messages are great for building attraction with your ex. They are short, they are personal and you can be sure they will read your texts. If used correctly, you can condition your ex to light up in excitement whenever they see a message from you.
texting your ex
It doesn’t matter where they are, your text will reach them and they will be excited to get a text from you.
The key to using text messages is to be very subtle. Never ever directly talk about your feelings or about your relationships. You want them to associate text messages to something positive and fun. Here are the rules for texting your ex.
Never send them an empty message. An empty message is something that doesn’t say anything and doesn’t give your ex anything to talk about. For example
“Hey”
“Hey, How are you?”
“I miss you”
“:)”
Never ever talk about your feelings and about getting back together.
“I love you”
“I miss you”
“I want you back in my life”
“I am miserable without you”
Never argue or say something negative over text.
“If you had just shown a little more effort, we could have been great together.”
“Your child misses you. You are terrible father to leave him like that.”
Now here are a few things that you should do while using text messages.
Something happened in your life that reminded you of them.
“Hey, I just watched the new season of Arrested Development. It reminded me of you. I actually had a smile on my face. :)”
“Hey, I just read the new Harry Potter book. I am so glad you never told me the ending. Thanks :)”
Remind them of good moments you had together.
“Hey, I was just thinking about the time we went skydiving together. Man, that was exciting. I am glad we did that. “
“Hey, remember the little restaurant where we had our first anniversary date? I just crossed it and it looks like they are closing down. It’s a shame because we had such a great time that day.”
Let them know you are having fun with your life and meeting new people.
“Hey, I just saw a romantic movie with a friend. The ending reminded me of you.“
“Hey, I am going to Hawaii for the weekend with a friend. Do you remember the name of the hotel we stayed in when we went last year?”
Now there are tons of other things you can do with texts. But the key point remains the same. Be subtle. Be positive. Be fun.
Right now, you just want to go from the creepy ex to a fun text buddy. Of course, you will be moving things forward slowly. When you think it’s the right time, go ahead and ask them out.

Asking Your Ex Out

Do not call it a date. I repeat. Do not call it a date. If you do, your ex will put their defenses up faster than Garfield finds Lasagna. You don’t want them thinking that you are looking to get back together. At least not now. You want them to go out with you as a friend. And then you can build up attraction while you are with them.
If you’ve done your homework correctly, you will be oozing confidence and attractiveness out of every inch of your body. And this works doubly as effective on your ex than any other person. Why? Because they were already attractive to you at one point in time. And you are not a stranger to them. You are someone familiar who looks very attractive.
The best way to ask them out is to give them a call. It’s possible they might require a slight push. A simple “come on, it’ll be fun.” Or “Hey, it’s just coffee. What’s the harm?” should be sufficient.
However, don’t go overboard in pushing them. Like”Come on. Just go out with me once. Please. Pretty please.” Or “You broke up with me and broke my heart. The least you can do is go out with me one time.”
Remember, your ex doesn’t owe you anything. You have to treat them like an acquaintance you want to get close with.

On the Date

Ideally, you want it to be your ex’s idea to get back together. You just want to be yourself (attractive, fun, happy, and awesome). Do not talk about your past relationship or your breakup. It will lead to no good. That relationships is over and if you two do get back together, it will be a new relationship. There is no point digging old graves when you want to start a new life.
