I can greatly enhance your chances of getting back together with your ex boyfriend, and have him down on his knees begging with these 2 killer tips. Do you have the feeling that everything you try only creates more distance between you and your ex boyfriend? Do you find yourself asking the question “What can I do to get my ex boyfriend back” almost daily?
If saving and rekindling your relationship is very important to you, and it must be if you’re reading this article, you have to calm down…why? Because your anxiousness to get your ex back fast will cause you to over react, and will only cause your ex to pull away from you…make sense? Even though it is very hard to struggle against this because it is only human nature, you must learn good emotional control before it gets ugly…if you want to succeed.
Excessive calling, sending emails or texting will drive him away so you must stop these things immediately. I know you are wondering “What can I do to get my ex boyfriend back, before he finds a new girlfriend?”, but you must first focus on what you are doing to push him further away.
Here are some tips you can use to get your ex back. They will have him crawling back to you, and answer that question “What can I do to get my ex boyfriend back?”.
Killer Tip 1
Follow the no contact rule. I know you think you know how to follow it correctly but believe me 99% of the people don’t…so find a good plan. The no contact rule is not just about ignoring your ex boyfriend it is about letting go of him, and finding yourself again, and this is very important. Most people think NC is about ignoring them until they want to get back together again…wrong!
Killer Tip 2
Once you pull back and stop chasing your ex boyfriend, he will begin to miss you…at first he will be surprised that you “gave up”, and it will cause a shift in the way he thinks about you. I know you’re asking yourself “What can making him think I am not interested anymore do to help me get my ex boyfriend back again?” This is what you can learn from following a good plan to “get my ex boyfriend back”. Especially a plan that is backed up with excellent personal support…want to know where to find one? OK, keep reading before your ex boyfriends dating a new girlfriend he found on a singles dating site.

Hi S.W.
I will never get tired of hearing this. Everytime I hear it I become more and more empowered to not contact him. Yes I still miss him but missing him no longer controls my actions. As I mentioned to you before we broke up over a year ago and then we both stopped contacting each over for about 4 months…but that is not the same as No Contact. He knew I was still in the “wind” waiting for him. I took back my power the minute I sent the NC letter. FYI – I am on Stage 2 and I did buy the book. On with my personal evolution…
hi there, my husband left me after 15 years and two kids, he has no one else and he works constantly, i have constantlt texting hin all the timeto come home and its made him angry and now wnt reoly to my texts i dont knowwhta to do for the best. he says he never coming back but deep down i dont believe him and i still get on with his family yet he wont open up to them and he never discusses us to my face or talk about it only through textx hesays to move on hes not coming back what do i need to do to make him come to his senses, please help me lisa
I have had to send my ex 2 nc messages already and he has accused me of playing head games with him. So I am not so sure if I should send him another. Most of the time I am the one who contacts him anyway. He just responds. However, I feel I have stopped chasing him but I am kidda in limbo as to what to do next. If I send him another nc he will definatlly know something is going on. He has told me he does care for me but he does not want to be with me. However, when I talk about moving on it does upset him. He told me I must have never really loved him them….HELP PLEASE
iv just sent my first nc text and and had no reply is that suppose to hppen, what if i dont get any response at all, really worried this isnt going to wor ;(

I always thought the point of No Contact was silence no matter what. I am not sure I see the need to announce it, unless your ex is stalking you. Goodbye is goodbye. Most of the time the dumper will never call anyway, because of the guilt. Then at some point when they do, if you are over them then I think it’s okay to respond, if you’re not over them then don’t respond. The dumper will get it, when they don’t get an answer from you it means that you don’t want to talk to them yet. No need to send a NC letter, it’s kind of like stating the already obvious and takes up your valuable time that should be spent getting over the dumper. That’s just my two cents.

I’m also wondering like KF. What specifically is the difference between starting your own personal evolution with an NC letter and starting your personal evolution without it? Not clear what the letter specifically does that’s so important. Can you explain? It sounds like you’re saying “just do it”, but when it comes to your life I’d like to hear some helpful description of what the letter in particular does.
Thanks

Hi,
I have been reading your blog for sometime now. Let me say that you are doing such a nice thing for people who have been heart-broken.
Here is my situation. He broke up with me about 6 months ago. And I initiated NC right away. I let 4.5 months go like that; meantime I did all the right things in summer – vacation with friends, going to gym as I used..talking to other guys etc.
Then I IM’d him saying hi about a month ago, and since then we have been talking regularly. I can tell he feels very comfortable with me sharing whats going on with his life..e.g,he is telling me how bored he gets talking to this girl. And he hasks me about the guy I have been talking to. I don’t tell him much about it..keeping things a little suspenseful..
Anyways, how long I should let things go on like this? I dont want him to think we are friends all on a sudden. I am meeting him next month..and hopefully things will start turning around..
Do you have any suggestion about my situation? You think I am on the right track?
waiting to hear back from u!
~ Elma
Actually I should have pointed out – I am worried that he thinks we both have moved on. I have been friendly with him over this past month and never talked about the breakup, but how do I subtly let him know that I still want him, just don’t need him. I don’t want him to think I don’t have any more feelings for him anymore!
What signs I should be looking in him to find out what whether he is missing me?
I’d so appreciate your help!

Hi Elma,
This was a mistake…why?
Because when you want to reconnect you make contact to set up a short face to face meeting as outlined in the free plan on my Blog.
I am afraid by chatting away with him you put yourself back in the just friends zone.
That is why I suggested in my previous comment that you start over again following the free plan.
I know you think it is crazy to start over again, but that is the only way I see for you to make things right, understand?
The sooner you start doing NC correctly, the sooner you will succeed.

im so angry with myself to get sucked in to his mind games we ended up arguing when he rang about the children so i have sent th nc again today! how do go about talking about the children with out him going about he isnt coming back when its not me who asked but the kids and moaning at me that he cant afford wherehe is living and about me going out with my friends saying at least i can afford to go out but he cant afford his bills and food!! is that a subtle way saying he has made a mistake but wont admit or just playing games with me he says he wants a divorcethen says when we argue dont divorce me then and says he depressed and low and that i dont know how he feels !! he crazy hdont jknow how to respond but i am staying strong and still going to the gym and going out with my friends!!!! lisa

Hi Lisa,
If he won’t talk with you calmly about your children, then politely say good bye, and hang up.

Do you suggest that i send him another NC sms?cos the one i sent was from a different love doctor,slightly different from yours but it did get him curious.and here i have you to respond to me.i must say i see thank you for this previledge.sorry i made a mistake typing my email.

Can I ask a question in your blog there is a part were it says if your ex wants to be a friend you say this is a stalling move what do u mean by that scott my ex was texting me bein very nice asking if he doesn’t mind if he texts an really wants be friends I’ve hit him with no contact today got a very nice reply that I didn’t respond to do u think he’s doing this stalling thing u mentioned I just want no about this stalling he was very very angry the other week I think its progress that he seemed nice agen but I’m stayin nc thanx
natalie10 wrote:
Hi Natalie,
I mean that he is putting off making a decision about whether you are just a friend or more than that.
If he can keep you in the “friends” zone…he will not have to make a decision…will he?
You will be in there forever.
But!
Once you take control by following the free plan, and send the recommended no contact message…he is forced to personally evolve, and make a decision.
Plus now you are not focusing on getting him back, and are now focusing on your own personal evolution.
Now the emotional “dust” will begin to settle, and you can make an intelligent decision about your future down the line…when you’re finished evolving in time.
Just keep reading and following all the steps in the free plan, OK?

im so angry at myself for letting my self get sucked in we contact each other about the children which is great than he ends up arguing with me so i hang up iv sent the nc twice before this do i send it again or just leave it? the last call was we shouldnt be arguing and it was left like that i we havnt ben in touch with each other since do i just leave it or send again! thanx :0)

Hi scott is that the case as we do nc properly we get stronger an they get weaker why is that I’m in my 2nd day of no contact properly now so I hope its true that I can pull his real feelings through is there a good chance now that in proper nc I can move him out of just friends shit thanx muchly
@ S. Williams:
Hi
I sent my ex a NC email this morning and received a response righrt away saying:
OK-i rspect that. Take care.
What does this mean? Is it a good sign? Seems he is not affected by what i said and is ok with it.
Pls advise

Hi Copy,
That doesn’t mean anything.

h there i have sent the nc message again! and he thought i was crazy sending the same text again and said dont ever contact him again thought i was going insane, he wasnt happy at all, is that a reaction to get or carry on with the nc it so hard when we have kids together xx ;0)
lisa wrote:
Hi Lisa,
If you had to send the NC again it must be because he got you to break it, right?
If he would just stop trying to get you to break NC, then you will stop sending him the message.
As far as being insane…I don’t think sending a message qualifies you as crazy.
It sounds to me that NC is pissing him off because you’re not reacting the way he wants, and you’re taking control.
Great Job Lisa! (Thumbs High)
Hi Scott,
I did send a copy of the proper NC sms yesterday.Even though i’ve not heard from him yet,i’ve started work on myself.I guess it’ll take time.

Hi Scott – NC 4mo. 2yr long-dist relationship-NY/CA. She dumped me f/a local ‘friend’ who was ‘helping’ her, cause, “you weren’t there,” she said. “I needed someone here.” (she’s sleeping with him, too). Last saw her in CA August, she said, “I want us to be friends.” I asked if she was in love with him. She said, “no” & “I’m not sure I know how to love.” She surely loved me–at least it seemed that way to me! :-( She’s Russian btw & has been married 2X before. She snt 1 ‘hello’ txt 2mo ago, which I ignored. My bday came & went w/no mssg–that hurt. Im in contact w/her daughter, who Im helping with college planning, etc. Last week, I sent ea of them a religious Christmas card, but kept the mssg to my Ex very simple, just wishing her & her daughter a blessed Christmas. I enclosed an iTunes gift card to the daughter, cause we have sort of a father-daughter relationship. She lives with her Mom, but I doubt they discuss me. Russian’s usu don’t dicsuss parent’s relationships. Did I break NC doing this? I’m working hard to evolve & becoming me again… I still love her & think about her every day. My friends (men & women) all advise me to “move on.” They all say she didn’t treat me very well, but LDR is vry challenging–only those who’ve tried it really know. I want to contact her this Spring–Her bday is early Spring (Pisces) BUT HOW????? I can’t just show-up in CA and say, “I was in the neighborhood”??? I need a plan. Anyone else in this situation???!!!! Ideas? P.S. Your site is excellent, but lacks specific advice about LDR reconnection. That would help a lot, maybe condifying other’s experiences & success? Thanks, Scott!
Will wrote:
Hi Will,
You’re wrong about the LDR information.
I have listed some ideas in the free plan, and there are 3-4 LDR break up success stories in our forum…so this plan works for LDR too.
Some of them are living in two different countries.
Have you been following the free plan, and using the free support tools?
It doesn’t sound like it.
The people who do all the hard work are successful, the one’s who don’t aren’t…it’s really that simple.
If you didn’t send the recommended NC message and follow NC, you need to start ASAP.
Following NC correctly means not sending stuff to her and her daughter.
She can’t miss you if you are always there in one way or another.
Your attempts to “help” her daughter only look like bribes to your ex…bribes for her (your ex’s) attention.
You need to start following the plan…from the beginning.

hi there iv been doing so well and today it went all wrong im so peed with myself this time of year is making me think of all the xmases we had together has a family not a single bad one, then today iasked my hubby about xmas presents for the kids and he was so off with me and biting my head off, he sent me a ext saying that he was right that i would never change, what does that mean? im so damn confused so iasked him if he wanted a divorce o let me know so that i can start the new year with a clean slate, was that the wrong thing to do i think iv played right into his hands! so di i send the nc again, he said the kids need to stop texting him what iv been up too and to stop them asking home for xmas! he driving me crazy!!! but i am putting myself first and gettting on with life, without him and im doing it, but i do love and miss him! is it beginning to get to him and what he has lost well i hope so!! have a great xmas and newyear s.w :0)
lisa wrote:
Hi Lisa,
It sounds like NC and the Holidays are taking their toll on both of you, but you’re not alone.
When he is acting this way do not let him drag you into it with him…you have a choice…politely say “good-bye” and hang up, or get dragged into an argument.
Do not play into his hands, he is trying to make you feel responsible for his decision.
Since you sent him the NC message again (hopefully the one the free plan recommends) don’t contact him any more.
As far as your kids, do your best to get them to stop contacting him as well…this will drive him crazy.
Suffering through one not so great Christmas to get your family back isn’t too much to ask…is it?
He will soon have to eat his words, and that will flip his switch even more.
Don’t let his behavior make you think he doesn’t care about his family any more.
He is obviously hurting and when people are in pain they lash out.
Just stay out of the way and let him work through the pain on his own, OK?
Have a Great Holiday Season, and I hope the New Year brings your family back together again.

To make a long story kinda short…I’m 17 years old, and I found out my boyfriend of 5 years lied to me again, for the third time.These lies are about the SMALLEST things..I found out the day before I left on my cruise..at that time, he was begging for me back, saying we’ll make things work when i get home, and it’ll never be too late to make it work with us. I couldn’t text when i was gone but when i turned on my phone when i got to the airport, i had a txt from him two days before saying “i hope you’re having fun, i miss you. i love you so much. i’m sorry” I txt him back when i get home and he wants nothing to do with me..i freak out and ask for him back and finally get him to talk..he tells me time is best for us and will bring us closer..so i we were friends and okay when we saw each other at school..but then i find out he told this girl that he never told me we’d get back together. so i txted him and got so mad and we said some really harsh things and said we were done for good…that was a little over a month ago..i’d left him alone after that but two weeks later, he finds out my grandma passed and he txted me saying he was so freakin sorry and he’s here whenever i need to talk..a week later, i asked if he’d consider meeting me to talk and he said not that night but another night for sure. it’s been a little over two weeks since then, and when he sees me in the halls, he wont look at me and if he sees me, he goes SO far out of his way to make me jeaous..it’s gotten kind of amusing. He broke up with me a couple of summers ago, and i made out with someone and so did he. He has never been able to get over me making out with this boy though, because they were friends..the girl that he told that he was never coming back to me to, was the one girl that the guy i had made out with has EVER been close to serious with..so it seems like he’s trying to get me and the guy back by talking to her..this is killing me..do you think me giving him some time and space for a while will make him come around? It’s been a little over two weeks now with absolutely no contact at all.

Hi Lisa,
He is pissed off because you have taken back control, and he will try every trick he can think of to get it back, by making you break no contact again.
Don’t fall for his tricks.
You need to follow the rest of the steps in the free plan, sending the NC is only the beginning.
If you don’t follow the rest of the steps, and use the free support tools, you are bound to fail yet again.
Get smart, and use the free tools.

Hi,
I was in a relationship for about a year before we were forced to go “long distance”… it wasn’t easy but as far as I was concerned we were both happy. After a quick argument one night, he suddenly broke up with me thinking that he had been “suppressing his true feelings” which were no longer romantic. I was completely devastated, but what was worse was that we had spent thousands of dollars in plane tickets to see each other.
I went two weeks later, and we slept together, and acted the same way but his decision would not budge. He claims I am his best friend, the most important person in his life and that he desperately needs me. After torturing myself trying to be his friend for a month I decided to send him a no-contact message. It has been 2 weeks, and in one week I will be in his town (staying in a hotel, and seeing some friends of my there). He knows I will be there, and I am pretty sure he will call me.
I am certain, however, that I cannot be just friends with the person who I am in love with. So if and when he calls and asks to see me, what should I do, and how should I act to get him back. I feel like this time may be the last chance I have.
Thanks for your advice, I really appreciate it… Happy holidays!

Hi Lisa,
What is a no contact message?
Did you use the one recommended in the free plan on my Blog?
Have you read, and followed all the steps in the free plan?
There is a lot more to this process than just sending a NC message…especially if you didn’t send the right kind.
He is looking to have his cake and eat it too…good for him, bad for you.
What are you willing to do about it?
Go read the whole free plan, and then start over and follow every step, OK?

P.S. 3 weeks is never enough time-this process is about getting your life back first, and you don’t sound like you have yours back yet…you’re still addicted to your ex. Follow the free plan.
Hi scott I want a thumbs up off you I think I’ve done some good evolving I’ve realised why my relationship went wrong its becoz I never got over my other exs death so I’ve got intouch with some old friends I lost wen that occurred an they r goin help get confident like my old self its all about me not my current ex nc will keep him in check coz I’m goin be that strong women he fell for not a doormat wat do u think to this scott

Hey
Ive read your step by step guid to Getting your ex back and I was just wondering if I just start the NC rule without informing him of my plans, will it still have the same affect? Its been two weeks to the day since we broke up. Until yesterday we were in contact, even hanging out my ex and I, I then nagged and let my emotions explode and now Ive just stoped talking to him and same friends. Will the NC have the same affect if I just stop contact?
Hi Scott
I am doing so much better. I am learning so much more about my self. THANK YOU!!!
Question: Does the plan only work if i make contact after nc or can i be patient and see if my ex makes contact? Was not sure becaue NC says that I will contact him when I am ready maybe he will just wait for me to reconnect..
Please advise.

Hi Copy,
The reconnection process can be either started by you, or you can wait until your ex contacts you…it’s your choice.
The real thing to focus on is when you are ready.
If your ex tries to reconnect before you are ready…you should not respond.
In 99.9999% of the cases you will evolve faster than they will, so when they try to contact you before you’re ready, it is because they want you to break NC and get back in the “just friends” zone again.
Just like you worry about NC and want to break it…so will they, don’t let it happen you’re in control, OK?
Do not worry about reconnection…focus on your personal evolution.
You’re desire to look too far ahead shows that your personal evolution is far from complete.

I’ve been in no contact with my ex for over three weeks, I still need to send him the nc message to make it work? It may seem like i’m just doing it to make him break it.

hi! this is the first time i leave a post here, and english is not my first language, so i’ll try to make my point to get an answer :D.
my ex boyfriend and i broke up about 2 months ago, it was a mutual desicion and we also agreed to stay friends and went out two times “as friends” after that, on those dates it was just like if we were still boyfriend and girlfriend “in all aspects”, besides, we talked on the phone everyday (he was the one who called mostly) and all of this got me confused, -i really think hi still loves me, we beroke up because we fought to much and he like, can’t stand fights, he’s too sensitive and gets very affected (to me fights are more some sort of catharsys, after fights i feel lighter) but we really love each other and when we don’t fight everything is sooooooo perfect, for both os us-; so today i told him that we shouldn’t see or talk to each other anymore cuz i get confused by all this and he agreed and said the what he least wanted was to hurt me or make me feel bad in any way so he thought it was best not to see each other anymore untill we could be toghether without having feelings for one another. So now my question is: what kind of “no contact note” should i write to him, since we both agreed no to see each other anymore? the notes on the book were about agreeing on what he said on stopping contact, but what if we both got to that conclusion toghether?. I really need the help, thanx!!

hi!!, i’ve read the free plan and the other articles, really, i tried getting the answer myself before asking you, but the part i still have doubts about is: “I would really appreciate it if you didn’t contact me during this time”. Should I put that part if we both agreed not to contact? wouldn’t it be redundant?. I’m sorry i know i seem too dumb or something, but i really want to do this right. Thank you sooo much!

THEY KEEP ASKING HIM TO COME HOME and stuff , and he got fed up with it and said its soul desstroying that thy keep asking and may no havr contact again for them to also move on with out him, why a dad would say that is awful, and i actually called him my ex i used to find that hard, as we havnt spoken and he said he wouldnt come round the house again and then he is in very confused waht do you think i hope hes not playing games<, THE FORUM IS GREAT!!! how do i react around him because im think hes coming round to put the kids straight on thing and upset me and them in the process i wont let it show why else would he be coming round because he never does !!!! :0)

Hi Lisa,
Just let him say what he wants to say, and don’t say anything.
Let him dig his own grave, just stay out of his way.
It should be pretty apparent by now to you and your kids that he is full of shit.
He came for a show, but don’t give him one…tell your kids the same thing…daddy is acting like an idiot, just ignore him until he gets over it.

hi sw ! he didnt kick off or anything very strange when he told the kids that he wasnt going to be contacting them anymore he was pleasent and just said ti thenm stop sending spiteful texts that was it! so hes gone from being very angry man to someone who was nice today,then said he will text them tomorrow, what the hell is going on! we never talked about us or anything or the fact i sent an nc, We spoke but only small talk and the kids, i think he wanted me to ask about is night out but i didnt,IS That a good sign because you dont change over nighrt when he was angry and been angry and slagging me off to the kids saying he didnt love me anymore and he didnt want to speak or see me ever again very strange indeed, :0)

hi s.w i v just sent my ex the no contact again, think is he came round to “talk” which ended in him saying he doesnt love me he isnt taking me back and all he wants is a divorce, and put all the blame on me for our relationship breakup,A and said i couldnt of been upset when he left because i go out every weekend havin fun, then said he didnt care what i did or do, THEN got my daughter involved bt y tellig her he hates me, he didnt give a flying fuck if i got knocked over by a bus and also told her that if she rings or text him again he wouldnt see her anymore ” how childish” then he sent me a sarcy text saying ” this is the last text from me calling me a liar and vicious and i have moved on from you,i hope i never see you againdo not contact me again< i dont as i put the nc in place but our kids do and i have caused this by not listening, and that i hope i was happy sending the kids to do my dirty work" i havent, i have never bad mouthed him or anything in front of the kids been very good about it when i could easily make the kids resent him but im not like that, hes doing it all himself, but he did say to me if i dont do this and that i wouldnt see him again blackmail and he says it to our kids to, even after all this even when he said not to contact him again i only ever about the kids nothing else like you said in the blog, even though he said all these things and sent the nc again, was the right think to do an what do you think his game is? he did ask our daughter who this guy was who liked me, My daughter told him and that i wasnt interested, which im not i need time for me, THEN AGAIN SAID HE COUDNT CARE LESS, any insight would be great because i dont see what he thinking and feeling apart from he cant stand me hates me et etc < hope you had a good hoiliday season. ;0)

dear scott,
Hello!
My boyfriend of 4 yrs broke up with me…
i ask him twice if he has a new gf he said…
Yes, 2 weeks..i think he is in the rebound
because after the break up i’ve done all the mistakes
text terrorism,begging etc…
QUESTION 1: IS HE REALLY ON THE REBOUND?
I cried when he confirmed that he has a new gf
and he cried also very hard(w/c doubled my pain)…
he said the reason why he broke up with me
is for me..he wants me to finish my study with medal,
If I graduate he said he will feel that he finish
his studies too..we are turning 22 this year,
we are in college, he is afraid I will become
pregnant and cannot continue my study..because
we are having sex for 6 months b4 we broke up,we are both in college.
We go to diffrent school, his new gf is his classmate.
QUESTION 2: why he is not giving me information about the girl when i ask about the girl’s name etc?
is he guarding her?or he is concerned to me?
we both cried hard that night..and he said it is so
very hard…more than 4 yrs were together.
He embraced me and cried,
He said he will not change his number, we can still talk,
and I can come back after I graduate.
After the talk, we ate on a resto and he is staring at me
and he touched my face, and telling me
do not cry anymore, take care of myself.
I KNOW THE NO CONTACT RULE NOW..but my 3rd question is
HOW GREAT IS MY CHANCE OF GETTING HIM BACK,
BECAUSE HIS REBOUND OR NEW GF IS HIS CLASSMATE
SCOTT,thanks for all the articles you have posted.
sorry it is to long.but I need everything to be answered.
Thanks scott!
-marie
dear scott,
I have already send him a NC message
but broke it, because
one of my friend texted me that he
saw my boyfriend(because they didn’t know we broke up)
with a girl on his
motorbike…
I broke the nc by asking my bf not
to go on that mall atleast for 2 months with that
girl because many of
my friends are going on there and i hate
explaining myself why we broke up, and
nobody knows we broke up except his family
he said ok, they will never go there.
I ask how was their date,
he replied and ask where am I,
I dont asnwer he said if im okei,
i said im okei, i asked are u happy?
he said he was happy
(
should i take him back if he is already happy?
how long his rebound will last?
thnks scott
I need your guidance,
AND lastly… we planned that
we will celebrate his bday on feb 12,
I asked him if we will continue the plan
he said, it’s up to me…
should i cancel it?
(im stupid ryt?):(
i have not responded to my ex boyfriend’s attempts to ring and text me over the past 3 months. He has a girlfriend still. He has been asking if we can talk and meet for a coffee and he loves me still. I have not responded. I am still feeling angry and heart broken so I have remained quiet while i decide what to do. I am going on holiday this week for 3 weeks and I feel strongly that I could talk to him clamly when I return but not before. He sent me an email the other day and i responded today saying ” I am going away for a few weeks we can speak when I get back”. he has not yet replied. Have i totally messed up?

Hi,
yes ive been following the free plan closely and now feeling like im able to try and reconnect with him. I am now willing to talk with him as he wishes. I would like to reconnect (and meet to talk over coffee as he suggested) BUT as I am going away on holiday tomorrow for a few wks I would prefer to meet and talk etc when I return and do it properly. That is why I decided to reply to his email today and say “i am going away for a few weeks-we can speak when i get back”. your free plan has got me to this reconnection stage and has worked great-its just a shame he wants to meet and talk when im off now on holiday. i just dont want to blow my chance to talk and im worried ive blown it by letting him know what im doing for the following few weeks. maybe ive killed the attraction now ive finally spoken up and agreed to talk? maybe hell loose interest knowing im not around? any advice or reassurance would be so appreciated
thank you for all your words of advice and support!
gilly wrote:
Do you have the book The Magic of Making up?
You need to read chapter 6 to learn everything you need to do during the reconnection phase.
If you don’t have this book I highly suggest you get it and read it while you’re on holiday.

As long as you didn’t have a long personal chat with your ex, you are still in good shape.
The point being if you catch up through, chat, email, or text…why would he want to meet face to face…understand?
He will be curious about what you have been up, and that is the attraction to meet and talk.
You really need to prepare by reading chapter 6 in the book The Magic of Making up…you don’t want to fall into premature reconciliation.
This holiday gives you the perfect time to read about, and learn what you need to do when you come back.
