Winning Your Ex Back With Happiness

By Alexandra Peterson


Going through a breakup can be emotionally devastating. Being rejected by someone that probably promised to love you forever strikes to the core of your being. Your ego and self-worth can be damaged so much that you might feel like you will never recover. You feel as if the only thing that will cure you of this malady would be for your ex to come back to you. If the love that you once shared was restored then your heart would be instantly healed. You search for a way to bring your ex back but the dream is dying. You feel like your ex very well might be gone forever. What can you do to ease the pain and eventually attract the love of your life back to you again?

Joy and a love for life truly are the emotions that you must feel before your ex will consider returning. This might sound insane but there is a method to this madness. You may have even noticed this in your life and other relationships. Your best chance for getting back together with the one you love is to adopt a cheerful attitude and eliminate any appearance of anxiety or sadness from your life. You might feel a little uncomfortable with this thought or say that it is impossible. You may even cling to the pain as if it is the last shred of what is left of your relationship. You might even worry that your ex will feel that you don't care anymore if you're not upset but this isn't true.

Fear and sadness are not helpful emotions in your life anymore. These emotions aren't helping you to get your ex back or achieve anything worthwhile in your life. They only drag you down and waste your time. People avoid sad, emotional, depressed people who appear to have a lot of drama in their life. We all tend to gravitate toward others who are happy, optimistic about life and those that have exciting goals and dreams. Your goal is to become attractive to your ex again, correct? Your ex is probably tired of seeing you upset and emotional and changing your attitude will change how your ex views you in their mind and feels about you in their heart.

Being happy might be difficult at first. Your life has been turned upside down. You have lost the person that you used to laugh with and joke with. By forcing yourself to be happy and to think positive thoughts you will start to get into the habit of being happy. Think about yourself for a while and go out of your way to make time to make yourself laugh and be happy. If there is a favorite food that brings you pleasure, indulge in that food as a treat. Maybe you adore ice cream or lobster. Make a meal of your favorite foods and feel the love that you have for yourself blossom. Get out of the house and be around people. People in public can be funny. Experience life again. For a quick happiness fix, watch a funny movie or video that makes you giggle. The important thing is that you laugh every day.

As you start to feel better about your life, begin to dream of all the things that you can now do in life. Think about what you may have wanted to do when you were together with your ex but couldn't. Now that you're single, you have the time to pursue those hobbies or goals. Maybe you wanted to start a business or learn a new language. Perhaps you always dreamed of going on a cruise. Write down your goals and dreams and begin to map out the steps necessary for you to achieve these dreams. If it's a cruise, research where you want to travel to and visualize yourself on that boat soaking up the sun. You might be surprised by how your new attitude becomes attractive to your ex as your life moves forward without them. Curiosity will get the better of them and your ex will be unable to resist the temptation to contact you and see how you're doing. They might even be a little jealous that you're not an emotional mess anymore without them. This will cause your ex to begin to feel some emotions about the breakup that they hadn't felt before and all of this is good for your future relationship together.

To further open your mind to the possibilities in life, understand that there are a lot of single people on the face of the planet. While you're waiting for your ex to wake up and smell the coffee, take a look around at all the people looking for someone just like you. You don't have to go out on a date but looking at profiles on a few dating sites might make you realize that even if your ex doesn't come back to you, there are other people out there equally as attractive if not more attractive than your ex. You don't have to contact anyone. Just do a little window shopping.

Loneliness can be difficult to handle at first but you will find that it becomes easier in time. Soon you will be so busy with your life that you will even forget about your ex for short periods of time. Don't become upset about this. This is natural. As your life settles down and you start feeling better about yourself, things will change. You will have things in your life that make you happy and as a result you will become more attractive to your ex and the people around you. It is often when we are satisfied with our life and truly happy again that our ex comes back. There is a connection between these two so the sooner you start to feel better about yourself and your life, the sooner you will find your ex becomes attracted to you again.

3 Easy Ways To Make A Man Want To Date You

By Sasha H. Peterson


Have you found a really cute guy that you're interested in? Do you wish that he would make the first move? Do you want to get his attention but you don't want to be too pushy? How can you get the attention of the man you're interested in especially if he has a lot of women that are interested in him?

Short of asking him out yourself, there are many ways to create a connection with that special guy. While being up front and honest might be refreshing, pushy women are often a turn off for most men. A man still wants to be a man and you probably wish that he would approach you first. You want him to chase you. You want that romantic feeling that he picked you and not the other way around.

First, be yourself at all times. Be honest about your likes and dislikes. Trying to fit yourself into a mold or become all the things that you feel he is looking for in a woman is self-defeating. After all, once he does fall in love with you it would be devastating for him to reject you because you lied or presented yourself in a way that wasn't necessarily true. If you don't like football, don't pretend that you do. He will find out the truth soon enough and that can be an embarrassing conversation to have.

We all have more than a few skeletons in our closets. Maybe you have made a few mistakes in your life or you are ashamed of where you come from. Even if it is easy to avoid these topics when asked, tell the truth. In the beginning stages of a relationship, men are very non-judgmental and if he likes you he will accept you as you are. There's no reason to hide anything. You might feel uncomfortable being asked the question but think about how he is going to feel when you tell him the truth. He is going to feel bad about bringing up a topic that might not have a pleasant answer but also, you will have shared something with him that not too many people know about. This will create a bond between the two of you and it will actually help your relationship.

When you are together, spend more time listening that talking. Most women are more talkative than men. It can be tempting to monopolize the conversation, especially if he is asking a lot of questions. Take control a little and find out about him. He might not be one to brag but every guy has something that they're proud of. Find out what that is. Take his lead and ask similar questions. Dig deep into his life and who he is. Each answer has the potential for more explanation. Understand how his mind works and what his thought process is as you uncover more about his life. Before you know it, he will be sharing things with you that he hasn't shared with anyone other than his closest friends. This kind of bond will bring you into his inner circle and solidify your place in his life.

Try to be as happy and optimistic as possible. Smile, laugh and be happy. While everyone has troubles in their life, avoid sounding negative at all cost. Women who are bubbly and vivacious are often the ones that you will see with many men chasing after them. There is a reason behind this. Men like to be around happy women. They're fun and nobody enjoys spending time with someone that is depressed or who complains about life. Even if you have something to complain about, laughing it off or being optimistic about the fact that things will make him look at you as strong and different from other women.

If you feel that flirting is out of style or just not your thing then think again. Flirting is one of the most powerful weapons that you have in your arsenal to get the attention of the man of your dreams. Men are visual so anything that you can do to visually allow him to get the message that you're interested in him will work. He might not hear your words but if you wink at him, he will get the message. If you flip your hair and then look up at him through a lock of hair, he will forget what his name is. Flirting works and if you think that it won't work for you then there is surely another girl out there that will prove to you that the guy you're interested in is susceptible to flirting.

Getting the attention of any guy is simple. Try some of these methods out and practice them on unsuspecting victims and you will find that in time there isn't a guy alive that is immune to your advances. You will become a pro at getting a guy's attention and making him ask you for his number. These methods are so seductive that he will even think that it was his idea to date you in the first place. Have fun most of all and good luck with getting the attention of that cute guy that you're dying to date.

3 Inspiring Plans You Might Try To Get Your Ex Back

By Karli Ralston


In a moment of inspiration, have you thought of a great idea for getting back together with your ex? You have thought long and hard and you know exactly what you need to do to win your ex back. It all makes sense to you. You have the perfect plan and you can see it all unfolding before you. Before you follow through with this plan, understand that most of us come to the same conclusion and think of the same solutions for how to get back together with our ex after a breakup. Chances are that you're not as clever and unique as you might think.

If any of these plans sound familiar then you are perfectly normal. This doesn't mean that any of these methods will help you to find success in getting back together with the one you love but there is hope. We all have to go through stages after a breakup. The stage that you are in presently was visited by many. We all come out the other side of this process better, stronger and, if we are wise, we are able to get back together with the one we love. We all get that opportunity. It's simply a matter of when and what you wish to do with that opportunity.

First, most of us come to the conclusion that the best way to get back together with our ex is to try talking things through. This is the typical advice given to us by therapists and counselors. We are encouraged to sit down and talk about the problems in the relationship. We can then understand each other and come to an understanding. We can solve the problems and get back together.

This plan may not work out the way that you envision though. While your ex might agree to meet with you and talk with you, your motives are different. Your ex might agree to talk with you but only to give you closure or to further explain why they are done with the relationship. You, on the other hand, want to get back together. Until your ex has a desire to be with you, all the talking in the world is only wasted breath. Communication is important in a relationship but your ex has ended the relationship, at least the romantic portion of the relationship. Don't mistake your ex being kind or tolerating you in their life is an opportunity. You very well may find that they lose their patience and completely stop communicating with you.

Promising to change is often the next plan that many of us come up with when hoping to get our ex back. We feel that if we either promise to change or begin to make changes in our life that our ex will have no reason to end the relationship. You might think that if you write down a list of all the reasons why your ex said that they were leaving and then make all the necessary changes that everything will be good again.

Again, while our ex might be proud of us for making some positive changes in our life, these changes aren't going to bring our ex back. Your ex lacks the emotional desire to be with us. As a matter of fact, if your ex did want to be with you they would come back even if you didn't make any changes in your life. There are many couples that get back together in spite of terrible circumstances and problems. It is passion, desire and attraction that brings them back together and not changes that one partner made in their life. Changing or promising to change will not bring about that passion and desire, sad to say.

Certainly, if you were the perfect partner and you were to be thoughtful and kind to your ex then they would see that you really loved them. The idea of buying your ex gifts or writing thoughtful emails, letters, cards or poetry is another great idea. You might even think that by performing some wonderfully romantic gesture such as sending your ex flowers or publicly displaying your love for your ex will get their attention. You might believe that your ex does still love you and they simply need to have their heart strings plucked in order to be reminded. This scenario is often played out in romantic movies so this surely must be the way back into your ex's heart.

While this sort of plan always works in the movies, life isn't a movie. This plan almost always backfires and it very well might make your ex angry. Your ex might look at your continued contact as harassment and you very well could wind up with a restraining order to deal with for your trouble. Your ex will probably think that you've gone a little crazy, if nothing else, and they will grow even more distant. Save these kinds of romantic gestures for after you have gotten back together. They will be appreciated much more then and help solidify your relationship once your ex is in love with you again.

As you can see, without your ex's desire to continue with the relationship, none of these methods will bring you success. It's only when your ex misses you, realizes that they love you that anything that you might do will make a difference in your relationship. Of course, it is true that there must be some love left in your ex's heart for you. To deny that would be impossible. Trying to convince your ex that they still love you is fruitless also. It has to be your ex's choice to come to that conclusion on their own.

Only understanding and time will allow your ex to realize that they still love you. You are actually better off doing absolutely nothing than pursuing your ex at this point. Emotions and love are very fickle and they can change very quickly. Your ex might say that they don't love you anymore or they could even deny that they ever loved you but tomorrow they very well might feel differently. This is human nature and even the most logical person is subject to this emotional swing when it comes to love. Be patient and wait for your opportunity to arrive. Have your life in order and be strong as you wait for things to change before you consider doing anything to try to get your ex back.
