How to Get Your Ex Back - 3 Counterintuitive TechniquesTrying to save a relationship can be a very difficult thing to do, especially after you'vealready broken up. You may worry that you'll make one wrong move and lose the personyou love forever. The thing is, you've already lost them, and you want to get back withthem, so you're ready to do whatever you have to do to make that happen.Unfortunately, what feels like the right thing to do is often the wrong thing to do. It's attimes like this that you should throw your intuition out the window and follow the"counterintuitive" path. When your intuition says to call them is when you should stay asfar away from the phone as possible. When your intuition says to pour your heart out tothem is when you should keep it to yourself. When your intuition says to go find them,wherever they are, and throw yourself at their feet is when you should lock the door andthrow away the key!Be warned: the "counterintuitive techniques" I'm about to share with you will probablylook and feel totally wrong at first glance, but they have been proven time and again to beeffective in these situations. Think about it: if your intuition was going to do it for you,why are you still apart? It's time to admit that your intuition has been totally wrong, andit's time for a new approach.A counterintuitive approach.Counterintuitive Technique #1The first counterintuitive technique is to agree with and accept the fact that your ex has broken up with you. This can be very difficult to do and the chances are that you're goingto have a bit of an internal battle before you're able to get there. You don't want it to beover, so you resist it. Accepting that it is over, whether you want it to be true or not, is avery healthy move.You need to understand why it's good for you to accept the breakup, and how it can helpyou get back together: First of all, you need to give your ex space to learn to respect youagain. Chances are that they are mad at you or at least upset with you at the moment, andif you've been on them about getting back together, that's only going to make thingsworse.Accepting that it's over and giving it a rest for a while will give your ex the space and thetime to learn to respect you again.Counterintuitive Technique #2The second counterintuitive technique is to cut off all communication. You're probablyabout ready to close your browser right now, but wait a minute, because this techniquereally does work: it works because it helps you to accept the breakup and is the only thingyou can do that will show your ex without a doubt that you seriously accept that it's over.
