We lose a part of ourselves when we break up.
So much of time has been invested in a relationship.
So many memories are tied to that one person that to throw it all away seems so meaningless.
We need to look into the recesses of our hearts and figure out whether the relationship is worth salvaging.
If it is so then read on.
The following four tips will help you get your ex back.
Accepting where you went wrong While it is very easy to blame the other person we need to do some soul searching ourselves.
If this exercise can be done with someone who has an objective view, it is better.
When you have figured out your mistakes it would be nice to call up your ex and tell him/her that you are sorry for your part in the break-up.
This will open communication and will also start your ex introspecting about his/her part of the blame.
Control If you are the kind of person that is controlling, work hard with a counselor or friend to improve.
No one likes to be controlled.
Buy yourself a puppy dog if the need to rule someone's life is so great! Patience Remember, however, earnest your intentions this time, when feelings are at play your heart will take time to heal.
Both you and your ex need to communicate and at the same time give yourselves space to think things through.
Friends and family In life we cannot go it alone.
We need the support of friends and family.
In the same way, friends and family will also be a good gauge to give you a reality check.
Ask for constructive criticism from people you trust.
They have been watching you both as a couple and will no doubt have opinions on who was going wrong.
Heed their advice and talk to your ex about it.
You will be rewarded with a richer relationship in the future.
