5 Ways to Scare Your Ex Off for Good!

The worst thing in the world has happened. You''ve been dumped. Maybe you had a fight and you've tried everything to fix it, but it's not working. What can you do? Well first of all, take heart. There are ways to get your ex back. But there are also things that most people do which are sure to drive your ex away for good! Here's five of the biggest mistakes that people make in this situation and these are things you should never do. 1. Do something spiteful. It's tempting to try to get back at the person who hurt us. My daughter's boyfriend bought her an engagement ring and when she said she wasn't ready yet to get married, he immediately took it back to the store and made sure he told her. She was so hurt that he made such a snap decision, that she became even more resistant to giving him another chance. 2. Sit around the house and wait for that call. How can that possibly help? It's so important to keep busy and that doesn't mean constantly talking to your friends about the breakup or watching TV all day. It means find engrossing things to make use of your time. Read a book that you can't put down, go out with friends, join a club, take up a new hobby, or my favorite, go on a trip. Nothing will perk up your spirits faster than a new environment, even if it's a weekend away. 3. Write a long, morose letter to him. It doesn't matter if you're apologizing, trying to show your ex why it's such a mistake to leave you, trying to make him feel guilty for hurting you or whatever. This will only evoke negative feelings about you. Guilt drives a person away more quickly than anything else. No one has ever rescued a relationship by making the other person feel guilty. You're better off giving the person a little time and space and let them come to the conclusion on their own that they miss you and want you back. 4. Be mean if he calls. Don't place blame, or make him feel guilty for hurting you, You want your ex to be glad to hear your voice. Keep it light, friendly and breezy. It's okay to let your ex know you've been busy, but try to stay away from the jealousy game. "Oh, did I tell you, I just met the most fantastic guy!" This never works. Just keep a casual attitude. You can be a little flirty and cute, and it's okay to let give the impression that you're glad he called. Make sure the conversation ends on a positive note..."It was great to hear from you. Sorry I have to go, but I was just on my way out." This shows your ex that you're keeping busy but you're still happy to hear his voice. 5. Patronize his favorite hangouts hoping to run into him. This is a pathetic ploy and an obvious one. He'll see right through you and it won't bring him back. He'll just think you're a desperate stalker. You want him to miss you and think of the good times you had together! You should also avoid calling him, texting him, sending him emails, or any other of these ploys. Don't be a stalker. Your ex will start to think of you as desperate and this will drive him away further. So these are the biggest things to avoid doing. What should you do to instead? Go out and meet people. When the word gets out that you're out and about, it will make you seem more attractive. Take care of yourself. Get some new clothes, a new makeover or whatever will make you feel better about yourself. Don't ever leave the house without looking your best. You never know when you'll bump into him or into someone new! Let him come to you. And when he does, don't make it difficult for him. It's easy to start the argument all over again by placing blame. On the other hand, don't make it too easy either. You want to make him realize that you are a prize that he has lost. So just leave the door open, be friendly and pleasant and see what happens! There are no impossible situations, but it's easy to do the wrong thing and lose your ex forever. For some surefire ways to get your ex back, visit: http://fix-any-relationship.com
