How to Get Your Boyfriend Back

There is a lot of advice on getting your boyfriend back that you can find, some of it is good but most of it is lame. Does it really sound like a good idea to beg him to take you back? It doesn't sound good to me.



Some of the advice you will hear pertains to employing mind games and tactics to provoke him to jealousy and sometimes it will work but basing a relationship on games and jealousy is never a good idea. You might be so desperate that you don't really care but that type of relationship is really not likely to last. The problems of the past will resurface and you will simply end up back where you are - apart.



If the break up occurred through something you did then apologizing might be just the thing that is needed rather than mind games or trickery. Do not misunderstand, even if you were not entirely to blame chances are good that you did handle some things wrong. Apologizing cannot hurt.



Another benefit of acknowledging your mistakes is that it will give you a chance to make changes. That way if you and your guy do get back together you won't just repeat the same mistakes all over again and continue to cause each other pain.



Apologizing alone is a very beneficial thing to do even if it does not have the desired result of a reunion between the two of you. At the very least you will have learned what you should not do in your next relationship. By figuring out your mistakes and making the changes you will find this is a win-win situation.



When you do contact him to apologize, keep it short and sweet. Tell him you realize you made some mistakes and that you are truly sorry for any pain you may have caused him.



Do not make it a production no crying or begging. And do not expect him to immediately take you back, right on the spot. He will most likely not. But he may think about it for a while and decide that based on the 'new' more mature you that he would like to give things a second try.



If he doesn't immediately take you back, give him space. Don't contact him for a while. Let him have time to think things over and decide for himself what he wants to do. If you pester him you will most likely just make the situation worse.



During this period, don't sit by the phone and wait for his call. Live your life. Do something to make you feel really good about yourself, and making yourself look really hot can't hurt either. Spend time with friends. Do not just sit around and worry, that will make time seem to go much more slowly.



By simply following this advice you will stand a much better chance at reconciliation than you would if you employ games and tricks to provoke him to jealousy. It's your choice - good luck!
