I Want My Ex Back

Honesty is essential when you are trying to repair a broken relationship. You have to be honest with your ex, but most of all you have to make sure you are not deceiving yourself.

Think about why you are so desperate to get your ex back. Because for many people getting their ex back is not a matter of love, it’s a matter of jealousy. It’s the green monster.

People who are motivated by jealousy are not concerned about what is right for their ex. They only want to renew the relationship because they hate imagining their ex with someone else.

Try your best to separate love from jealousy in your thinking. Your mind can play tricks on you but make every effort to be clear in your thinking because if you are really motivated by jealousy your efforts are probably doomed to failure.

If you are sure that you want to re-ignite the relationship with your ex for all the right reasons, don’t stop being honest with yourself because you have some more thinking to do.

Think about why the relationship broke up in the first place. And be honest with yourself. This is no time to play the blame game.

No matter what the ultimate reason for the break up was you must shoulder some of the responsibility.

Because in fact you have more chance of rebuilding your relationship with your ex if the responsibility for the break up rests mainly on your shoulders.

Think of it this way.

You can’t change your ex. So if you bear no responsibility for the ending of your relationship then there is nothing you can change to get your ex back.

But if you are responsible for the ending of the relationship then you have an opportunity to make changes to yourself, changes that could bring your ex back.

So be optimistic and be honest with yourself and your ex and you give yourself the best chance possible to start your relationship again.
