How You can Get your Ex back: 7 Things to do

7 tips to make your love come back

  1. Don’t post negativity on social media
    First, your acquaintances will unfollow you and seeing the negativity, they won’t even want to go near you or introduce new people to you. Second, new friends will all know that you’re sad and don’t want to know you more or else they’ll get infected with your sadness. Third, for the friends who really care about you — you can just go the traditional way and meetup with them and cry your eyes out.
    It’s really stupid to get more attention by being negative. No one likes to give that kind of attention.
  2. Don’t hurt yourself
    Why are you hurting yourself for someone who doesn’t care? That’s really dumb.
  3. Don’t just get into relationships easily
    I know you feel hurt and you probably feel worthless right now because feel like your ex doesn’t want you. You are eager to feel loved and hopefully ‘My ex will know that I’m in another relationship and my ex will feel jealous, and will beg to come back.’ STOP. That’s not self-love. That’s called my-ex-is-still-the-center-of-my-universe. Everything you do is because you want to get your ex back. But actually, everything you do from now on, should be focused on yourself.
    It may seem like they’re contradictory — To get your ex back by not trying to get him/her back.
    That’s exactly the point.
    That’s what makes us human.
    You always want what you don’t get.
    And you always want what you think is good for you. So how can you make yourself better? You can start from appearance (new haircut, new clothes, get some muscles, eat healthier, etc) and a good attitude/be open-minded. Join meditation/yoga/learn new things. Upgrade yourself with your outer appearance and inner attitude. Be the best version of yourself.
  4. Go out with friends and meet new people
    So now you’re Version 2.0, you need to Flaunt it to others. Get out more!
  5. Start doing something that’s been on the Back burner
    You need to have to courage to do what you love. That’s the most important point to love yourself.
    For example, if you’ve always wanted to try horse-riding, start learning it. Enroll for a course.
    If you wanted to start a business, it’s time to start learning how to do that and surround yourself with people who are doing the same.
    If you always wanted to go back to your high school and visit your favourite teacher, it’s time to do that.
    If you wanted to try that new restaurant and want to do a pedicure, go do it.
    This is the time where you just have to care about yourself.
  6. Take pictures
    When you go out or have new experiences, take pictures of your new and improved appearance. When you’re doing your favourite things, take a picture. You can also take pictures with your friends. Be happy. Then post on social media like instagram or facebook. This will help you attract new friends too! Your ex may or may not see these photos. Who cares? You’re enjoying yourself and you will attract more like-minded people. But please don’t post too much. Posting once every two days is a good amount to not annoy others while showing your amazing life.
