5 Step How to Get Your Ex Boyfriend Back Plan

 Step # 1 – Give Your Ex Time and Space

Write down your ex-boyfriend’s phone number on piece of paper so you won’t forget it. Put the piece of paper under your mattress and delete their contact information from your phone.

Make a promise to yourself not to contact them until you complete this “how to get your ex boyfriend back plan”.

It is natural to get the urge to call or text your ex, but hold off on doing this until the plan directs you to.

The first step of the plan involves getting off your ex’s radar. Despite the fact that you could be hurting on the inside, you need to make sure that your ex doesn’t know it.

Your ex usually starts off pretty confident that you will be the one to cave in and contact them first, giving them time and space will confuse them and make them wonder why you have not contacted them.

This step involves cutting off any communication with them. I repeat, this means cutting off any and all communication with your ex.

  • No Calls or Text Messages
  • No Emails
  • No Skype or instant messenger
  • No Facebook, Twitter or any other Social Media Interaction
  • And do not respond to your ex’s texts and calls

The no contact period will force your ex to miss you and realize what life is like without you. It will also give them time to get over anything they may be angry with you about.

You may find yourself coming up with excuses of wanting to call or text your ex; this could range from things like you forgot your clothes at their place or wanting to return their spare key.

It is natural to feel this way, but acting on these feelings will ruin your chances of getting back with your ex. You will need motivational support from a friend during this phase

What If I Can’t Avoid My Ex?

It’s possible to run into your ex unexpectedly as you go about your daily routine. Maybe you work or go to school with your ex? Don’t try to run away from them, if you must talk with them make your conversations brief. Stay away from any emotional topics, and don’t forget to project an  image of confidence.

How Long Should I Avoid Contacting My Ex?

This time period can range from 20 to 30 days.  You should start seeing results in as little as two weeks. Do not try to shorten this period of time.

Should I Tell My Ex I Am Not Talking To Them?

No. After a short period of time, your ex will figure out you are not talking to them. They will want to know why or insist that it is rude that you won’t tell them know you are ok.

This is a good thing, you want them to wonder what is going on with you and why you won’t respond. Telling them you are not talking to them on purpose would defeat the point of doing it.

Do not talk to them.  If they continuously insist on calling or texting you then you may tell them not to contact you until you say it is ok.

By giving your ex time and space, you’ll be able to allow negative memories and perceptions about you to be replaced by good thoughts and memories.
It is likely you will need something to keep you busy during this time.

What If Your Ex Is Dating Someone Else?

Realizing that your ex is currently dating someone else can come as a shock and may impact you in ways you never expected. Don’t ask them about the new person or try to sabotage the relationship because this won’t help your case.

A New Relationship Can Only Mean One Thing: Rebound

One of the reasons why you shouldn’t be too bothered by the fact that your ex is seeing someone else is because most likely, this is just a rebound relationship for them. At the root of it, rebound relationships are not romantic; chances are you haven’t been romantically replaced yet. Additionally, because of the fact that your ex met this new person shortly after you broke up, it’s unlikely that they’ll be compatible in the long run.

You’ll learn how to handle the situation if your ex has dating someone else in step 5 of this guide. Even if your ex is dating someone else continue with the plan. You have the upper hand on the new person because you and your ex have history.

Ask Him Out

Asking out your ex is the next move after making initial contact.  You two are back to messaging and calling on a steady basis. They seem to be very interested in your new look and attitude. Now it is time to start making your move.  Ask your ex if he would like to meet up for lunch. Do not call this a date or try to make it something formal. There is no guarantee they will accept. If they decline do not show signs of anger or bitterness.  Keep the lines of communication open and continue the small talk.

Remember, they do not owe you anything. This is a rebuilding stage. If they accept and you meet them for lunch. Be sure not to bring up your old relationship or why you broke up. Only have this kind of discussion if your ex is the one that brings it up. You have some forward momentum at this point. You have reestablished contact with your ex and things are moving in the right direction.

Now it is time to seal the deal and get your ex back permanently with step 5.
