Get Your Ex-Girlfriend Back

Get Her Back if She Hates You?

Published by:

Sometimes, after the demise of a relationship, things aren’t too bad between the former lovers and there is more clarity about reconciliation or simply moving on because emotions aren’t quite as intense and rationality is more prevalent.

However, there are other breakup situations in which one partner still wants his ex back while the other seems to have an intense dislike or yes, even hatred towards that person.

Now, this ‘hate’ may be real and one that lasts or it may be a short-term reaction to something that you did or towards the end of the partnership. What can a guy do if his ex-girlfriend really dislikes him?

Give Her Time To Cool Off

In the middle of circumstances, emotions are running red hot and things are said, that might not be meant in the long-term. Our present lives are almost always paramount to things that happened years ago.

I bet we can all think back in our lives, to things that really upset us in that specific time period. Though, now we are either indifferent towards them or simply laugh that we once cared that much.

This type of thing happens quite a lot in relationships, or when they end, because we kind of become addicted to that other person. Addicted to their presence, love, attention, etc.

These emotions can of course be intensified when the person we are upset at continuously shows up. Or interferes with our lives, instead of just letting us have time to reflect and cool off.

Time to cool, might be a while

Your now, ex-girlfriend or wife, is probably pretty pissed at you…to the point you had to search out an article on how to deal with her hatred.

So, to start with you are already at a great disadvantage in terms of an attempt to win her back.

In order to try to get out of such a predicament, one must assess the likelihood of turning her feelings back. She needs to feel something positive towards you and the first step is letting her have time.

Going no-contact is a popular method for dealing with breakups, and for good reason, it lets emotions settle down among both parties.

Even though your impulse is to try to talk, reason with her, beg, apologize, and the like…it is actually the wrong course of action to take.

First of all, the two of you need to think about your own lives, and the very real possibility that the relationship is indeed over for good.

Secondly, the constant calling and texting, will make you seem desperate and even if you are, it makes you even more unattractive or annoying in her eyes.

Let her have space and let yourself have some too. You need time apart from one another, as it lets things calm down and become more rational.

This time can be a very lonely and trying experience and the urge to contact her must be resisted for at least a month or two.

During this time period, you should work on all aspects of your life and figure out if you should move on from her and start dating other girls (if need be). If you are honest with yourself, in most situations, the best move will be to learn to let her go and chart a new path for your romantic life.

Think About What You Did to Piss Her Off So Much

Okay, so this lady may or may not actually hate you. Either way, what did you do to get her in this state?

If you cheated on her, then this only adds another layer of complexity, and  further lowers your chance of getting her back.

Many people are not forgiving of a transgression such as that, and even if they do take you back, the dynamic of trust in the relationship is shattered.

The couple will then, need to work extensively to move past it, as an obstacle. This is a massive block to get past and it isn’t always possible. The most likely outcome is that the separation will be permanent.

Though, there are always exceptions to the most likely outcome.

Whatever it is that you have done to anger her, think about what it is, why you did it, if it’s a behavior that you seem to repeat often, and why you haven’t changed this behavior.

  • Is this something that you can improve upon or even change completely?
  • If you were caught with another girl, are you really ready to give up other women in your life for good?

If not, you may not be ready for a long-term committed relationship…which is fine. At least be honest with yourself, that you would really rather hookup with a bunch of women, versus being exclusive with her.

Don’t simply fall into an emotional space and demand to get her back, because your ego is hurt that she’s gone.

What are these things that you need to fix in order for her to take you seriously in the future? Figure it out and come up with a plan on how you are going to remedy these issues.

It gets lonely sometimes

Figure Out If She Really Does Hate You

After a time apart from one another, she may have softened enough to be willing to talk to you and interact further. On the other hand, she may want nothing to do with you and is moving on with her life.

If that’s the case, it is a really good idea to respect her wishes and simply let her do what she wants. You cannot force someone to like you, and trying to keep up a pursuit of reconciliation, just becomes pathetic at some point.

People tend to just get stuck in the past, instead of charting, a better future.

However, after a period of no contact, it may still be uncertain to you whether she will be receptive or not to accepting you back into her life. Here is a post about signs that your ex may want you back.

At this stage, you may have come to the conclusion that you do indeed want to try and restart a dialogue with her.

The dialogue can usually be started through text message, just to feel out how she perceives you at this point in time. She may not respond or give short and terse answers.

A reply is better than no answer at all. From there, it is a progression of getting her to talk to you more often, hashing things out, and agreeing to meeting up with you.

What’s the first move?

If the goal is to get back together with an ex, then obviously contact with them, must be had in order to move forward. Luckily, thanks to the power of technology, the barriers to entry are much lower.

We no longer have to call and pray for an answer or try to randomly arrange a meeting with a go between.

Now, cell phones have given us the ability to send text messages. Why is this a good thing? You have all the time to craft the right message. They have all the time to respond.

Maybe they don’t want to right away, but maybe they will later. It requires little effort and there’s no face to face meeting, right off the bat. Sounds pretty ideal.

How to Get Your Ex-Boyfriend Back if He’s Moved On

Published by:

When a relationship fails, there is usually a period of uncertainty for both parties. Neither may have a clear picture of what their next move is going to be. The paths that your ex-boyfriend can choose are many.

Sometimes, he will opt to be single, for a while. Either to help himself start a new chapter in his life or to simply focus on other things besides women.

While other times, he may chase a series of hookups, to either explore new possibilities or to aid in getting through the loneliness post breakup.

However, there are also cases in which a guy, will get himself into another serious relationship.

Even right after he just go out of one, or he wants nothing more to do with his ex-girlfriend, and just wants to get on with his life.

Has He Really Moved On?

For that last batch of scenarios, it can be quite a challenge to attempt to get back together with your ex-boyfriend.  A lot of the time, it is more trouble to try, than it is worth.

When someone truly makes a concrete decision to move forward from a relationship, it tends to be a thing of certainty, and if he really believes in his decision there can be few things to do that can actually change his mind.

There needs to be a time, that you accept the fact, that he may actually be gone for good. Depending on what stage he’s gotten to in his moving on process, it may be likely that he is.

Regardless of whether the relationship can be fixed or not, it is best to at least prepare oneself mentally, for the chance that reconciliation will not take place.

Often times people need a reality check after a break up happens. It is essential to your well-being and future plans, that you cut out the idea in your head, that if you can only fix a few things then the relationship will magically be all good again.

If the two of you broke up, there were definite problems, it’s really that basic.

Things will not be the same if you get back together with him and if your thought patterns currently reflect this, you should recognize this as a form of hopeful delusion.

Things will not be the same as they were, even if you are able to pull him back with you, there has to be a rebirth of sorts, so that a new relationship can be forged from the shell of the old one.

It is just a fact of life that things change, people change, and relationships fail. If your ex-boyfriend seems to be moving on with his life, you should also try to do the same or at the very least learn to be happy with yourself on your own.

file801343155029

On your end, getting on from the break up means accepting your life situation as it is now and figuring out how to be content or happy by yourself.

Get past the pangs of loneliness and explore personal growth, so that in time, you can make a good and logical decision about what option you want to pursue…either getting him back or going a different direction in your life.

In the malaise and confusion of the post-breakup period, dependent and almost addictive feelings can emerge towards your former lover.

Having these feelings and trying to rid yourself of them is not a valid excuse for getting back together with your now ex. That is just trying to solve emotional dependency by any means necessary.

I know that after a split, there is can be a lot of uncertainty and fear. This can be quite intense when you see your ex-boyfriend moving on and you are still hoping that he will come back every singly day and you haven’t done much with yourself since he has been gone.

Sometimes, you can feel like if you fail to get back together with your ex, that you will end up alone.

That isn’t necessarily true (very unlikely, if you put forth effort dating) and the future has not yet been written. There are always more guys out there, and yes, some that are better fits than he was for you.

However, you also need to develop the skills to be strong enough and be happy on your own. You can’t just be forever stuck in the past, imagining a life with someone who may not even be interested in you any more.

This ex-boyfriend of yours might be together now with another girl and you feel like you want to get him back because you have some fear that this new girl might be a better match for him than you are.

What these types of feelings and notions really are, is your egoic self rearing its ugly head. These feelings rise up when one cannot accept change and the cycles of life, you feel as if you’ve lost and perhaps your value as a woman has been lowered.

This can turn into a quest to get your ex back (whether that is a good idea or not) because it feels like your self-worth is being determined by whether or not you can get this person to love you once again.

Don’t let these thoughts turn you into a petty and desperate person, who tries to stir up jealousy and break him up with his current girlfriend.

If you are at this stage, you have not yet accepted yourself, and you cannot be in a healthy relationship until you are happy with who you are and accept yourself fully.

  • Ask yourself what has changed to make this relationship work now?
  • Like, if a magical spell allowed you and your ex to be back together in an instant, what would allow things to work out now?
  • Have any of the problems of the relationship been figured out to the point that things will run relatively smoothly?
  • If you do not really understand the underlying issues of that relationship and can’t really think of ways things could be improved then what exactly are you chasing after?
  • Chasing a guy simply because you feel lonely is a recipe for disaster because even if you get him back, how long is it going to last?
  • How healthy of a relationship is it going to be?
  • Is it just a complete waste of both of your time, to try and pursue something that may not even work out at all.

If you still really want him back…

There are some women who have actually been through the whole process of healing and growing as a person and still feel that they want their ex-boyfriend back in their lives.

If that is the case, and you feel like you’re in a really good spot emotionally and in your life. Then, you may consider using a program to help you get things going again with your ex.

Hopefully, you took the opportunity to download the two free reports towards the top of the post, that help to lay out some of the dos and don’ts of texting your ex. Both of which were written by Michael Fiore as an introduction to his “Text Your Ex Back”.

Will My Ex-Boyfriend Come Back if I Stop Chasing?

Published by:

A break up happens and you’re not satisfied with this result. You want him. You want him back, just like how it used to be. So, you chase.

The more you chase the further he pushes away, it seems. As such, you draw the conclusion, that if you stop chasing your ex-boyfriend he will then come back.

Interesting theory, but will it work if you give him space? What are the potential outcomes for such time apart? Chasing is almost never the right answer, especially when its already proven to be ineffective, but will he want to get back together if you let up?

Is Chasing Driving Him Away?

Possibly. To what extent depends, though, one could argue that it certainly isn’t helping matters at all.

On the one hand, he may not want to get back together regardless of being chased or not. Sometimes, things are just done. You’ve had enough of someone in your life and you’re ready to go your own way, without the past relationship continuing.

On the other hand, it might be the chasing itself, that is giving him doubts.

Therefore, the best course of action to take is one of inaction, at least in terms of bothering an ex-boyfriend. The broken relationship needs time to cool off and that’s near impossible to do when one party, keeps running after the attention of the other.

People often think that doing nothing is somehow a bad move, because we always feel the need to try and ‘fix’ a situation.

What’s important to understand is that breakups usually aren’t as simple of a fix as just badgering the other person non-stop until you’re magically back together. NO!

Despite what our brains constantly tell us, there is usually a process to forgiveness or a evaluation as to whether we continue dating someone or not.

Instead, there is often a time apart, when the former couple can gain clarity about what they each want for their lives as individuals and then move forward with or without each other.

This time apart is usually enforced by the application of the No Contact Rule which allows the emotional turmoil of the breakup to settle down a lot before any potential reconciliation takes place.

Also, chasing in itself, simply isn’t attractive. It can come off as really desperate, even if one is desperate, it’s not an attractive quality to the man in this scenario.

If chasing isn’t working, then, one needs to give the guy some space. That’s clearly his wish to not be pestered about getting back together, at every moment. This doesn’t mean that he will forget you, it’s just a respite from being in constant contact.

Why Does He Want Time and Space Apart?

Well, put the shoe on the other foot for a second. Imagine some guy that you’d broken up with, were trying to talk, text, and see you at every possible moment.

Maybe, you’d be willing to try and work things out, but he won’t give you the time you need to figure out what’s the best path for you to take.

Wouldn’t you get annoyed at some point? Even if you still had strong feelings and the inclination to reconcile with him, the act would wear thin, eventually.

That’s the same situation that the ex-boyfriend is currently facing. Not only does he have his whole work, school, or whatever other life to worry about. Now, he also has an ex-girlfriend vying for his limited attention.

There’s no way he can gain clarity about what he wants in terms of potentially fixing the broken relationship, if he has his old girlfriend, trying to be around all of the time. Absence makes the heart grow fonder, after all.

The most volatile emotions take time to burn off. He needs to discover what his life is like again. What is it like to not have a relationship that you’re responsible for maintaining?

At some point, a man will either realize he doesn’t like being alone without the relationship. Or, it will become obvious that he should move in a new direction.

Say the Chasing Stops, Will He Want to Get Back Together?

There’s no guarantee, but the odds will certainly be better than, continuing to try and force him back into the relationship.

As I always say on this site, there is never a 100% chance that a relationship can be salvaged, all you can do it play the best odds.

So, what’s more likely, him coming back after you let him have time apart OR continuing to chase him…which has already been failing?

Need more help? Click here to receive two free reports: “3 Toxic Texts You Should NEVER Send Your EX” and a mapped plan of the “Text Your Ex Back” process.

That was rhetorical, but the answer is the first option mentioned above.

Chasing someone isn’t going to wear them out and make them submit. It’s going to trigger frustration and make them want to have nothing to do with the person, who won’t let them be.

So, the best course to take is one in which, he is given space for a time. To where he feels like he’s not being constantly pressured and can make a clear decision about whether or not he wants to get back together.

How to Get Your Ex-Boyfriend Back After a Year

Published by:

Time apart is necessary for the process of healing oneself after a breakup and figuring out what direction to take one’s life in. The healing process is one which is internal, however, just because time apart can heal sadness doesn’t mean that it will cure what ails a broken relationship.

Now, it’s been a year or longer since your break up and you want to give it another go with your ex-boyfriend? Can you even get an ex to come back into a relationship after that long of time apart? The answer is yes, it is possible…not probable but possible.

People have sometimes gotten divorced and then remarried years later. While others dated as teenagers and the reconciled as adults. These things do happen but it just isn’t a likely event.

Perhaps, an even better question to ask than the likelihood of this happening is whether or not it is a good idea to try and get back together or to simply move on?

Win ex back now

Why Do You Want Him Back?

This is the question that I ask myself after breakups with my girlfriends and that creeping feeling of loneliness and desire sets in. It is important to not blindly trust your feelings but to analyze exactly why it is you feel a certain way.

This longing feeling can stem from symptoms of dissatisfaction with your own life, that, when you take a closer look you realize that it doesn’t really involve your ex-boyfriend. We tend to clamor for what we think will make us feel better in the short-term, even if it is a bad decision for our overall well-being.

This can of course take its shape in the form of junk food, drugs, etc. However, it can also manifest itself in chasing some idealized past relationship which ignores all of its flaws.

Need more help? Click here to receive two free reports: “3 Toxic Texts You Should NEVER Send Your EX” and a mapped plan of the “Text Your Ex Back” process.

It can be a really great plan to do a complete assessment of what you want for you life and future to see if getting back together with your ex-boyfriend is actually what you want.

Perhaps, you are just chasing after your memories because you feel like getting back into a relationship with this person will act as a cure-all of sorts for your life.

Some people do have an unhealthy level of longing for their ex, that really isn’t going to provide them any benefit if they actually succeed in rekindling the broken relationship.

Many times, the best course of action is to finally let go and move forward with your own life.

Take your time and strongly consider every possible angle of pursuing a new found relationship with your ex.

  • Is he really all that great?
  • Does he actually offer something you couldn’t get with any other man?
  • Do you simply currently not have many other dating options due to work, school, shyness, etc and are now idealizing this past relationship due to loneliness?
  • Did the problems you have in your past relationship magically disappear?
  • Are these problems even fixable?

This type of introspection questioning is extremely beneficial because it allows you to challenge your preconceptions and not get suckered in by emotions that are potentially pointing you in the wrong way.

Digging deep into your own thoughts and true feelings can help you to prevent making the mistake of wasting your time chasing someone who isn’t good for you or even worse, restarting a bad relationship that has no chance of succeeding.

OK fair enough…but…I Still Want Him Back, What are My Chances?

It gets lonely sometimes

It gets lonely sometimes

So, after you have gone through the long process of questioning what you want for your life and whether or not pursuing a relationship with your ex is even a good idea, you can then start to thing about what problems are preventing you from making a reconciliation happen.

Again, this is another process of thinking and analysis but it is totally necessary.

Understand that, after a year or more apart your ex-boyfriend is not the same person mentally/emotionally and probably hasn’t stayed stagnant in other ways either.

Consider his current relationship status. Does he have a new girlfriend? Multiple friends with benefits? Is he completely single and alone?

Depending on which category he falls into, your chances of getting back together will change.

If he has a girlfriend and it seems to be serious, I would honestly recommend that you leave it alone and just move on. It’s not fair to him or his current girlfriend to have his ex (who he may not have any interest in any longer) to be butting their nose into his personal life.

OK, let’s say that he doesn’t currently have a girlfriend or any really ‘serious’ prospects at the moment. The good news is that you have a slightly better chance to renew a relationship with him than you otherwise would.

The odds become more or less favorable depending on the causes of the breakup, the problems of the relationship, who dumped who, how each of you have changed, and what type of communication the two of you currently have.

Whose Idea was the Breakup, Anyways?

Is he the right man for you?

Is he the right man for you?

Sometimes a break up is mutually agreed upon while other times it is the result of one person’s desire and the other partner has no idea what hit them.

If it was his idea to break up with you, then, he probably had his reasons at the time. However, with time feelings tend to die down and you can kind of forget what the reasons were in the first place.

This can be a benefit or a detriment towards getting back your ex-boyfriend. If he thought he could find a better fit than you and found out it was a mistake through first hand experience, then it can be a boon for your cause.

However, the opposite effect may have taken place and while meeting new women, he found out that maybe he was justified in the breakup.

If on the other hand, you were the one who dumped him, you might have a better shot at reconciliation. In some instances, he might still be very open to having a open dialogue about getting back together with you, since he might not have wanted to break up in the first place.

This can of course depend on certain circumstances such as the severity of the break up, whether cheating was involved, and how his romantic and personal life has changed since then.

Changes?

Many times a reconciliation will only take place if the people have changed enough to get past their differences. Hopefully, you have recognized your flaws and faults and taken the necessary steps to improve them.

Otherwise, you’re just setting yourself up for a repeat performance of the relationship dissolving and it probably won’t be as functional of a relationship while it lasts either.

Think about it from their perspective, would they really want to get back together with you if all they were going to get is more of the same?

The relationship has to start from a new place, as the two of you are now different people at different places in their lives then when you first got together.

You not only have to address your own flaws but also those of your partner.

Has he changed for the better? Is he even willing to address any issues you may have had with him? If not, it is going to be a waste of time for all involved.

What’s the first move?

Obviously, in order to attempt to re-start a relationship, contact has to be reestablished with your ex. With all of the technology we have at our disposal today, perhaps, text messaging is the most logical choice to reach out to an ex once again. Think about it:

  • They don’t have to agree to meet you face to face right away.
  • That message can sit on their phone until they are ready to respond. More time equals a greater chance.
  • You can craft the right message to them.
  • It’s a private and personal way of communication.

Get Your Ex-Boyfriend Back After You Cheated On Him?

Published by:

In the course of some relationships, cheating and infidelity can happen. Sometimes, you are on the receiving end of it, while other times you are the one who cheated.

If you find yourself in the latter situation, it can be quite a difficult place to start again from. This violation of trust can quickly put an end to even the longest term relationships and can destroy any chances of reconciliation even when both parties still love one another a lot.

In this post, I want to explore a bit on the possibilities or techniques for getting back together with your ex-boyfriend when you were the one who cheated.

Forgive Before Seeking Forgiveness

So, you’ve cheated and your boyfriend dumped you as a result.

The first step before even considering your chances to get back together with him is to fully accept the mistake you made and forgive yourself.

I know that in this situation, you can really feel bad about what you did and continue to carry around guilt about it.

However, if you are going to move forward with your life, either with or without your ex-boyfriend, you need to come to terms with it internally.

This is easier said than done, obviously, but it is possible when you let go of the past and the emotions which have arisen from it.

You cannot alter the past, just as you cannot alter the future and guarantee that your ex is going to take you back and absolve you of your relationship sins.

Work out the emotional guilt. Figure out why you really cheated.

  • Was it a fit of passion?
  • Did it stem from a lack of fulfillment with your ex-boyfriend?
  • Even if the two of you got back together would it be a good relationship or would you still be unsatisfied?
  • Would he hang the fact that you cheated over your head, even after taking you back?

These are the types of things you need to come to terms with before deciding if it is a good idea or not to try to reconcile.

Time Apart is Time to Heal

Revolution_kalendar

We need some time apart…

Following the No Contact Rule post-breakup is a good idea because it gives both people a time to breathe and learn to live again without that other person impeding on their emotions.

If you cheated, then there is a good chance that your ex isn’t speaking to you at all anyways. Don’t lose it over this fact, just respect their wishes at this time and don’t continually pester them with text and phone messages begging for forgiveness.

This period will usually last 30-60 days and is necessary to let things cool off and for those strong emotions to calm down a bit.

During this time apart, realize that no matter what one does, sometimes getting back together with an ex isn’t an option and prepare yourself to move forward in life, as a wiser person.

Understand that, your ex is probably furious with you, so even with your apologetic and good intentions…they probably don’t want to hear from you at all at the moment.

Begging can sometimes be flattering (very rarely) but it is mostly a turn off to people. At some point, it becomes kind of pathetic and it’s really unattractive to have someone lowering themselves and trying to suck up to you.

Think about guys in the past, who have tried to get with you…were you all that attracted to the obsessive types who damn near worshiped you? Probably not.

You were probably drawn to the mentally stronger and more confident men, it’s the same principle at work here.

What Needs to Change?

make dem changes

Okay, so you’ve screwed up royally and cheated on your ex. Now what are you going to do different in the future?

In order for your ex-boyfriend to want to get back together with you, he must know that you have changed as a person and that he is going to be able to rebuild a level of trust with you.

That same unquestioning level of trust may indeed be gone for good, however, a very high level of trust can be rebuilt but it has to be earned and it takes time.

The first step is to accept the blame for what you did, come to terms, and assure that it isn’t going to happen again.

Again, this goes back to what triggered the cheating?

If you just hooked up with some guy you thought was hot because you had a momentary weakness, how are you going to make sure that this isn’t going to happen ever again?

Are you satisfied with your ex-boyfriend physically and sexually?

If the answer isn’t a definitive and unwavering yes, then you should probably just move on with your life.

Apologize to your ex if you want, but it isn’t fair to get back into a relationship with someone you don’t have those kinds of feelings for at a high level.

It’s okay to want something else in life. Even if, it is difficult to get past the attachment and emotions that stem from this broken relationship. But, it is necessary for both parties to be happy in the long term.

  • Did you cheat because of something that he did or didn’t do (not enough attention, etc.)?
  • If this is the case, then is he going to change if the two of you were to get back with one another?
  • Or is it something about you that is just being unreasonable or needy?
  • What can you work on about yourself to eliminate the urge to cheat?
  • Was it alcohol or substance related?
  • Is that an addiction(s) that you need to seek help for?
  • Are you out partying too much and that opened the door for you to have an opportunity to give in to temptation?

Figure out why you cheated, the things/situations that enabled you to cheat, and demonstrate that you have changed.

Also, this clearly means ending whatever type of relationship you had with the person you cheated on your ex-boyfriend with.

You cannot have a relationship with that person moving forward, if you want your ex-boyfriend back in your life. As such, you have to make a decision to cut them out of your life in order to reconcile.

Figure Out What You Want With Him

So, you have to ask yourself, what you want long term with your ex-boyfriend?

If the two of you were to get back together, where is it ultimately heading?

If it’s a complete certainty that you are in it for the long haul and he’s the one you want to be with (marriage or other long-term arrangement wise), then it makes sense to at least try to work things out.

If on the other hand, you’re unclear about what you want with him or you’re just feeling really lonely right now or you’re still feeling like you might want to be with other guys…then it is time to prep to move on with your life.

If you fall in the former camp, you have to realize that the relationship as it once was it effectively over. A reconciled relationship is a new relationship and it will take lots of work and alterations in order to get things right the second time around.

Now, you of course can’t always get the other person to agree to want to come back. Who can blame them?

They are probably devastated by what took place and may no longer have the room or the desire in their hearts to want to see you again. That’s a possibility which must be accepted.

What’s the first move?

Obviously, in order to attempt to re-start a relationship, contact has to be reestablished with your ex. With all of the technology we have at our disposal today, perhaps, text messaging is the most logical choice to reach out to an ex once again.

Think about it:

  • They don’t have to agree to meet you face to face right away.
  • That message can sit on their phone until they are ready to respond. More time equals a greater chance.
  • You can craft the right message to them.
  • It’s a private and personal way of communication.

Thanks for helping me find myself first so I could have the opportunity to find my ex.”- Paul

Should I Take My Ex Boyfriend Back After He Hurt Me?

Published by:

At some point in the time period after a breakup, questions can begin to rise internally about what your next move should be and even if you should accept your ex-boyfriend back into your life.  This can be a confusing time filled with distraught and severe loneliness, that often times causes one to look for the quickest fix to help themselves feel ‘normal’ again.

It is during these emotional crises, that we can make bad decisions based off of what we feel instead of what is the right choice for us to make.

Should I take my ex back? Is he really that bad of a guy? He can change, right? And a whole host of other questions cloud our minds and effect our judgement.

One of these questions could be, “Should I accept him back into my life, after he hurt me?”

tumblr_nvulp45EQZ1sjzy3lo1_1280

So You’ve Been Hurt…

The most basic advice that I would start with is whether your ex hurt you physically or emotionally or both. If physically, the answer of if you should get back together is a clear, no!

If that’s your situation it may be advisable to seek counseling and weaken the feelings of dependency you have towards him and simply move on with your life.

If on the other hand, this guy only hurt you emotionally, you may want to consider the depth of that hurt and what about his character allowed him to scar you in this way.

Now, emotional hurt can be as bad and sometimes worse than that of the physical. It is a deep-seated pain that comes into your life when someone who is that close to you, does something to betray your trust or intentionally tries to hurt your psychologically.

So, it is important to get to the root of this pain and determine the severity of it.

Did He Cheat?

Some people have open relationships and that’s fine. However, for the vast majority of people, there are clearly understood boundaries of monogamy that once crossed usually spell the end of a relationship.

If this is the situation which you are currently mired in, I think the best course of action is not to get back together with him.

  • Ask yourself, what has changed?
  • Is he suddenly not going to make the same mistake again?
  • Will you be able to accept the fact that he cheated and not let it affect your reconciliation?
  • The relationship has fundamentally changed, so even if the two of you do decide to get back together, is it a situation in which the two of you can grow stronger together?

Answer honestly about why you would even want to be with someone who cheats on you in the first place?

Dependency and not having a clear option to replace him are not acceptable answers.

file801343155029

What are His Intentions?

Another determining factor that you should consider, if you are thinking about taking him back is why he wants you back (if he does).

Did he honestly realize he’s made a mistake and is actively trying to change and make things better?

Or is it more of a case that he currently has no other girls to date, feels lonely, and his attachment to you is strong enough to make him want you (at least for the time being)?

Post-breakup can be a confusing time for him as well. He may be convinced that he wants to be back together with you, even if, deep down he truly doesn’t.

Take what he says with a grain of salt and pay attention to his actions.

Whether or not he follows through with what he says he’ll do is extremely important. Also, even if he does, that is no guarantee that you should take him back either.

What do You Want?

Emotions and loneliness aside, what is it that you want for your life?

If it is unclear at this point, don’t jump back into a relationship. An irrational decision can be a costly decision to make and have you ending up being stuck with someone wrong for you for a very long time.

You cannot have a successful relationship anyways, if you are not first happy with yourself and have an idea of how you want your life to be in the future.

Can he realistically be a part of those plans? Take the time for yourself, where you can be alone for a while and gain clarity about what you want and how you should proceed.

You may come to realize that he is completely wrong for you and there are literally billions of other men on this planet and that some percentage of them would be much better suited for you.

I know, I know, meeting people is hard. Though, great ones do come along; if you put yourself out there and make the attempt to meet them.

You cannot make a major decision like this from a position of weakness.

Emotions will deceive you or bait you into thinking that you are making a solid decision by taking him back, even when that’s definitely not the case at all.

Do your due diligence, be happy with yourself, determine where you want to go in your life, determine if he fits with that plan.

Figure out if there are much better options for you out there than just getting back in a fallen relationship.

Is It Ever Too Late to Get My Ex-Boyfriend Back?

Published by:

As time passes after a break up, a thought will gather in many people’s heads, it’s a question to whether or not it is still possible to get their ex-boyfriend back. It’s been a few months, is it too late to reconcile and begin anew?

Once a split happens the drift starts to begin and the person you were once dating, now has possibly moved in a different direction and has a new set of wants, needs, etc.

The problem lies in the fact, that one party has started the transition out of the old relationship, while the other is still wanting to re-kindle things. When exactly is it too late to get back with an ex-boyfriend? Is it ever?

When is it too Late?

On some level, it really ‘never’ is too late to get back together with an ex.

That being said, it’s usually limited to specific circumstances, once an extreme amount of time has occurred since the break up.

There are people who have broken up for years and then gotten back together, so, yes it’s possible. Is it a sound idea to do so? That depends.

The old relationship is done.

So, even if you get back together with a boyfriend, it’s a completely new thing (albeit familiar). Don’t make the mistake of thinking that things will be the same as they were before, they won’t.

People change and mature constantly. Things and people that interested you ten years ago, probably do not now. At least not to the same degree.

This kind of shift can also take place over the course of months, if someone is really determined to change fundamental things about their lives.

Just keep in mind before pursuing that any underlying issues of the old relationship would have to be resolved and that it’s not going to be the same relationship, just a new incarnation.

These ‘long periods of time in between the two relationships’ relationships are possible but know that the longer the time, the more unlikely it becomes.

I would be really hard pressed to even consider getting back together with women that I dated years ago.

I just couldn’t picture it working out, now that my life and desires are so completely different. A period of months isn’t insurmountable, but years might be.

Win ex back now

Why?

Get down to the nitty gritty of your motivations.

  • Why exactly do you want to get back together with your ex-boyfriend?
  • Is it really about him and how great he is or does it have more to do with your general unhappiness, loneliness, lack of direction in your life, or some other factor?
  • What about the situation has changed that makes you feel that the relationship will work out this time around, when it just got done failing on the first try?
  • What’s really different?
  • Is it really anything or is this just chasing after the past and your fond memories of it?

It can be really tough to move on, especially when there isn’t a clear path in our lives as to where exactly we are supposed to move on to. It is a confusing time and our brain makes it worse by reminding us of a time when it felt as if things made much more sense.

Sometimes, despite all of the emotional evidence to the contrary, it is actually the best course of action for our lives to simply move on. It is the correct decision to let go of the past and not try to patch things up with our exes.

All of this wanting to get back together with your ex-boyfriend might be a masking of a general lack in your life as a whole or uncertainty about what it is you truly want.

As such, one can often chase after the wrong things in life, if you don’t get in touch with what you really want.

When Should You Consider Moving On?

The first point that I’d say, is that, after a deep search of yourself and consideration of what you want from it.

If after all of that, you have serious doubts about getting back together, then that is a very noticeable sign that it is time to move forward alone.

If all the signs are pointing to just being unhappy about where you are currently in your life, then things should become about you and not focused on trying to get back together with someone else.

You are the foundation, happiness in relationships can only stem from you being content with what is.

Also, if you’ve been trying to get back with an ex for a while, exhausted your strategies, and gotten nowhere…it might be time to hang it up for now.

That doesn’t mean that it is never possible to get back together with them, just not at this point in time. They may want to go a completely different route with their lives and that route may not include you.

Accept their decision, it’s their life, and their choice to make.

The third point is, if this trying to get back together with or chasing of your ex-boyfriend is hurting your life, it is probably time to let go.

You cannot sacrifice your well-being based on some vague notion of reconciliation with a person who might not want to reconcile.

Don’t allow your brain to concoct some narrative, where it’s some great tragedy that this person didn’t want you back or that it’s somehow romantic to chase after someone for years…it isn’t.

Our brains love stories. Elements of them can be true, but getting caught up in these narratives, can waste years of our lives for no positive result.

Things in life change and people flow in and out of our lives all of the time. That’s life, that’s how it works for everyone. At some point, you can no longer resist change, and have to just go with the flow.

It really is never ‘too late’ to get back with an ex, depending on the situation. There are a ton of variables that will effect your current situation and the likelihood of such a reconciliation taking place.

However, despite the odds, there are perfectly legitimate reasons for letting go and moving forward without them too. Take the time to truly figure out what it is that you want.

How to Get Over Your Ex-Girlfriend Sleeping with Someone Else

Published by:

A very common issue which guys must face after a relationship ends, is the thought of their ex-girlfriend having sex with someone else (either in imagination or reality). The fact that you spent so much time with this woman and grew to have such a deep connection makes it feel really terrible when she is sharing that type of intimacy with another guy.

Seeing your ex in this type of relationship so soon can have devastating effects on your psychological state and emotions. How does one accept this as it is and move on?

Jealousy and Ego

It is interesting as to when we become emotional and/or jealous about a woman having sex. A lot of times when we meet a new woman and begin a relationship with her, she isn’t a virgin (maybe she was in your case)

BUT we don’t have the same type of emotional negativity towards the fact that she was with other guys before you.

(If you do feel that way about guys in the past, then you have a deep seeded attachment to your ego and the self-image you have built for yourself.)

However, for most guys it really isn’t a big deal because we figure, “She’s with me now.”

Need more help? Click here to receive two free reports: “3 Toxic Texts You Should NEVER Send Your EX” and a mapped plan of the “Text Your Ex Back” process.

Once she moves on from you and starts to sleep with other guys, why does it bother you more? Her having sex, in no way diminishes you as a man nor does it diminish your past relationship.

That relationship has already occurred in the past and run its course.

Really, why should it bother you? 

You do not have to feel threatened by another man or jealous of him. This type of competition or comparison is the breeding ground of envy, which will only serve to drag you down further. Making you more angry, sad, depressed, etc.

One major factor is the sense of ownership that people get when they are in a relationship. It’s this idea of ‘she’s mine’, which is ultimately an illusion.

No woman is ever ‘yours’. She is her own person and while a strong bond and attachment can form, it doesn’t mean that this is going to stay the same forever.

After all, there was a time in the past where you probably didn’t know her, she was with another guy, you were seeing other women…there is no difference now, things back then changed, and then things changed again. Acknowledge this fact and begin to let it go.

There also can exist a level of embarrassment about being cheated on. It feels like our status as a man has been diminished or like we will suffer socially for it.

Yes, it can cause great upheaval in your day to day life (depending on the seriousness of the relationship). Yet, that is all temporary too. It takes time to rebuild aspects of your life and move into a new direction.

But, that time will pass regardless and the issues will work themselves out, if you don’t get sucked into a negative emotional and behavioral spiral.

1200am_blink

Reduce It to Its Base

One way to cope with and begin to transcend the jealousy and other emotions that you feel when you think about your ex-girlfriend having sex with another man is to break down the act to it’s core.

Think about this reductionist exercise, in very clinical terms.

What is actually happening? A man sticks his penis inside a vagina, where is skin comes into contact with her. Friction occurs from thrusting in and out until finally there is an intense spasming and some goo shoots out.

That’s it. That’s what we get so upset about, when there’s actually no use crying over spilled goo.

Reducing Emotional Attachment

Once reduced to it’s more clinical and technical base, do the same thing with your feelings.

  • What actual harm is this causing me?
  • Does this erase the fact that I’ve already had a sexual relationship with this woman?
  • Does him having sex with her negate my masculinity?
  • Does this stop me from ever having another woman date me?
  • Will I even give a damn about her having sex with someone else in 10 years? 5 Years? Hell, 5 months?

This short-lived upset is born out of your attachment towards the narrative in your head. You keep telling yourself, again and again, about your masculinity and your failed relationship.

Thoughts and memories betray us, as they constantly loop inside our mind, and more and more images get added to them.

This makes these scenes and memories more vivid and emotional for us, which creates greater attachment, especially when we begin to interpret them and buy into this story that we’ve created.

Our brains love stories. Love getting attached to the same stories, even when it is actively harmful to our daily existence. Just like a favorite movie or TV show, we love get the same emotions activated again and again. Especially, when those emotions are negative.
300x250_txb_02

Why Getting Used to This Helps in the Future

Think about the ways women can actually hurt or manipulate you. Either by using sex or emotion. If she wants to entice you to do something, she may use sex as a reward. If she wants to punish you, she withdraws sex.

If she wants to really hurt you, she may give sex to another man (known as cheating) in order to make you jealous and feel pain. Sometimes, it may just be a case of lust, and not much thought was put into it. It was just sex.

It’s the same way with emotional manipulation, and guys fall for it, almost every single time.

  • What if you became centered emotionally and took full control of your sexuality and sexual desire
  • What if you got to the point where it didn’t bother you if you thought about another guy having sex with a woman you were once with?
  • Without any ego attachment to the act of sex, how would your ex honestly hurt you emotionally?

Not just your ex, but women you date in the future.

It’s very possible to get to a state where you don’t care about such frivolous things, and let go of any girl, who goes away with another guy or tries to break the confines of your relationship.

What if you decide to have sex on your own terms and not go chasing it like some rabid dog?

Her seductive charms begin to have no effect on you. Then, you can make clear and rational decision about what you want from your sexual life.

She can probably get sex whenever she wants, but can she get a solid loving relationship whenever? Nope.

It’s funny because that can often be the last laugh that men get in these break up scenarios. She goes out and has sex with different guys. Her ex-boyfriend is devastated. She thinks she’s won, but ultimately none of those guys care about her. The ex-boyfriend moves on into a better relationship. She is all alone, stuck with guys who only want her for sex.

She Slept with Another Guy and Now Wants Me Back…Wat Do?

Alright, let’s say the scenario is that, she slept with another guy after the break up but now wants to get back together with you. How does one handle that situation?

For me, it would depend highly on the specific circumstances. Admittedly, I would lean heavily towards moving on from that relationship, and firing up the old online dating apps to find new women to go out with.

However, I would consider the circumstances, as to whether it was just some random guy or a guy she knew.

Do I know how much time elapsed from break up to her having sex with someone else?

If it was essentially right after we split and she knew the guy (if I could ascertain that info), then I would say, “No thanks” to her reconciliation offer.

To my mind, he was a back up guy, that she could try to grab onto if things went south with our relationship. It would also be possible that she cheated on me before with him and just made things a bit more official this time around.

Either way, I don’t like it, and would move on from her.

If it had been a few months and she had sex with a guy she’d met in the interim period, I’d probably be more forgiving of that. However, it’s still a heavy lean towards ‘no’ for me.

You have to analyze your own situation and what you can handle. Let go of all the negative thought patterns, clear your mind, but really figure out how much this might bother you in the future or what impact it might have on a potential reconciliation.

What this Boils Down to

The key is not to just grit it out or cope with these feelings. The key is to become aware of them as they bubble up and not let them take control of yourself.

Recognize the anger or other feeling when it arises.

Observe it. Are you that anger? Do you have to let it ‘become’ who you are? Can you observe this feeling, recognize where it is coming from, feel it, and then let it go?

Don’t become a victim in your own mind, even if it’s justified, as it will only serve to create another story in your head which will loop continuously and drag you down with it.

It is easier to get angry or depressed about these things but letting them go is a much more effective way to deal with them.

Will My Ex-Boyfriend Come Back if Given Space?

Published by:

There are times when a break up happens, that one party almost immediately begins chasing the other, in order to get back together with them. In this case, the boyfriend, asks his ex-girlfriend to stop and give him space. He wants time apart from having to deal with the broken relationship.

Why? What will happen if he is given this time apart? Will he come running back? Will he find someone else? Will giving him space make him miss me?

These are all very common questions and worries when dealing with a break up. But, should he get the space he desires or is that a mistake?

Is Space What is Needed?

Potentially. It is very difficult to get someone to change their mind about something, when they’re feeling crowded or pressured, by an outside force. This can be especially true, when that person is someone who you’ve recently broken up with.

Time apart from one another allows the emotions of both sides to calm down quite a bit and allows for more clarity about how they each want to proceed with their own lives.

This is why something like the No Contact Rule can be so darn effective, as it let’s people decompress from the relationship, and think about what could possibly come next.

Many people have a fear of giving an ex their space and time apart because they think that they will forget all about them.

That isn’t necessarily true and time apart can actually have the opposite effect on a person. Many times, this time away from one another can trigger feelings and emotions to make they guy miss his ex-girlfriend.

Bottom line: if he asked for space, give it to him. Don’t let your own emotions or ideas about what is best for him, try to supersede his current wishes.

At some point, he’ll be ready to communicate once again, or move on from the relationship if that’s what he wants.

Why Does He Need Me to Leave Him Alone?

In all likelihood, he has plenty of other things happening in his life beyond just a breakup. Work, school, family, etc. So, having his ex-girlfriend consistently or constantly vying for his attention can be draining. Especially, when the break up is still a fresh wound.

As a man, I want to be left alone a good chunk of the time, even when I’m in a good relationship with a woman. Never mind when I’m trying to figure out what course of action I should take with my life, after a breakup has occurred.

Think about it: how can someone ever miss someone else, if that person is always around or texting them about the past?

There is nothing more irritating to us, then having our girlfriend or ex bothering us when we’ve asked them, to let us be. Like, super super irritating.

Let him have his space.

But Will He Come Back?

He’s more likely to, than if his wishes are not being respected. Obviously, when dealing with human beings, there’s no 100% guarantee that their definitely going to try to get back with their ex.

I mean, there are so many variables about him, his personality, and what he wants for his life that only he knows about.

However, one has to play the odds when trying to get an ex-boyfriend to come back. In this scenario, is him being left alone for the time being, going to increase those odds? Almost certainly yes.

Desperation isn’t an attractive quality and continually chasing a guy is only going to serve to push him further away.

Meaning, he will be less attracted to a woman who chasing him hard instead of giving him space.

What Do I Do During this Period of Time?

He needs his space to figure things out. You should do the same.

When time is spent apart from one another, emotions settle down a bit, and one can think about things clearly. Including, if you actually want him back or is it just the powerful emotions that have been stirred up post-breakup?

I know it seems like a silly question to ask at this point, but there are plenty of people who come to realize that a particular relationship wasn’t the best for them and there lives. This realization could only take place during a period of no contact.

What should you do after a breakup? Focus on you and what you want for yourself.

Take time to grieve the relationship and how it ended but don’t obsess over it. I always have given myself a set time during the day where I could just feel bad about a break up. BUT I made sure to limit it to just that time.

I would offset that ‘bad feelings time’, with as much positivity as I could experience throughout the day. I would listen to motivational speeches, meditate, read books, exercise, watch comedies, laugh with friends…anything that made me feel better and not wallow in my emotions.

This should be a time of self-improvement and self-realization. Figure out how to address your weaknesses. What about the relationship could’ve been improved? How could you have been a better girlfriend? Anything? Even if this relationship is indeed over for good, use this as a learning experience.

Here are some useful posts about the post-break up time:

How Long Should He Be Given Space?

Give it a week or two before testing the waters. If he communicates first, good. If you text him and he still doesn’t seem ready. Wash and repeat the process of giving him a few weeks and then communicating with him.

At a certain point in time, both parties should have a clear idea about whether or not they might consider getting back with one another.

What’s the first move?

Obviously, in order to attempt to re-start a relationship, contact has to be reestablished with your ex. With all of the technology we have at our disposal today, perhaps, text messaging is the most logical choice to reach out to an ex once again.

Naturally, we must give the other person space. But when we have allowed the situation to breathe for a bit, we’ll want to reach out and see what he’s wanting to do.

Texting fulfills this need, think about it:

  • They don’t have to agree to meet you face to face right away.
  • That message can sit on their phone until they are ready to respond. More time equals a greater chance.
  • You can craft the right message to them.
  • It’s a private and personal way of communication.

There are many way in which relationships can end and the underlying causes are all usually at least somewhat painful to endure. However, none may be quite as harsh as getting cheated on by your now ex-girlfriend.

Relationships are built on trust and the idea that this one person is granted special access and privilege in your life because they have proven themselves as someone to be held in high esteem.

Whether it’s through momentary weakness or a long-term decline in the satisfaction they derive in being monogamous, cheating is simply an option that some people see as a way to explore something different and get those needs they have met.

Unfortunately in the process of meeting those perceived needs, a person they are supposed to love and care for gets hurt badly by their actions.

Now, the question becomes once a relationship is over due to cheating, how can you get the ex-girlfriend who stepped out on you back?

Seriously, WTF?

I’m going to have to have a little talk with you, as your random internet friend…dude, what the hell are you thinking?

The base question of this article, is how to get your ex-girlfriend back if she cheated on you. Perhaps seeing this in writing will help your circumstance sink in. No? Still nothing. OK, let’s break it down further.

The question itself implies that she cheated on you and doesn’t want to get back together. This isn’t some circumstance in which the cheater is begging for a second chance, rather, the guy who got cheated on is chasing after her.

That is the most ass-backwards logic I may have ever come across. On what basis would you want this girl back?

As I’ve written above, the core foundation of a relationship is about trust. She violated that trust to one of the highest degrees possible, therefore, the relationship is rendered ineffective and should be concluded permanently.

Now, if you had an open relationship in which either one of you could hook up with other people, fine. However, the rules of a monogamous relationship do not allow for this possibility.

What Do You Think She Offers?

If a woman cheats on you, that is symptomatic of a larger issue. Not only is it a larger issue within the confines of that relationship but it is also indicative as a flaw in her character.

She may justify it any way she wants within her head but if she was truly unhappy in the relationship (and if the metrics are her cheating and not wanting to be with you, it’s a safe bet), then she should have just left in the first place.

Also, even if you do get her back, what has changed? Is her deeper issue suddenly solved? Is she trustworthy in the future to potentially (or already) have access to your financial well-being, to raise your children, be trusted not to screw you over sometime down the road?

Understand this: there are always more women. There’s like 4 billion females on this planet…maybe, what, 1.5 billion adult females and you’re going to sit there and act like this cheater is particularly special? Come on, man.

Maybe it’s your current love life situation (or lack thereof) that is pushing you to want to get back together with her. Despite the loneliness, it is better to be single than to be in a crummy relationship by miles and if you don’t feel that’s the case, then you need to seriously start turning your attention to your own needs and psychic well-being.

Yes, you can get other girls and you can certainly get girls who will not cheat on you. I cannot in good conscience recommend that you even attempt to get back with your ex-girlfriend, as I don’t see a scenario in which this is a good idea. My advice is: move on!

Getting Past this Attachment

A big problem with the aftermath of a break up, is dealing with those addiction like feelings, toward the ex-girlfriend. The good news, is that, they can be gotten rid of but it takes time and effort.

Wanting someone back who cheated on you, and who, doesn’t currently want you back is a pretty big sign that some positive changes need to occur in one’s life.

Whenever, I’ve been faced with something or someone that I’ve become unreasonably attached to mentally/emotionally, I like to go through a deep inquiry. I get to the roots of why I am feeling this way and not just accepting that I ‘need’ this person or thing in my life.

  • Why do I want her so much?
  • What is lacking in the rest of my life, that I am so focused on this one person?
  • Is she really the one girl for me or just the only one that I can currently see in front of me?
  • Is it even about her or do i just simply not like the way losing her felt?
  • Is it more about the feelings that the cheating caused or something that is actually special about her?

Really get into the causes and mental patterns of the issue. Sometimes, we mentally get stuck in feedback loops, where we expect someone or some feeling to be there.

When it no longer is, there is a void, and we can struggle to replace it. As such, we tend to try to get back the source of that feeling, even when it isn’t a good option for us.

After inquiry and identifying underlying issues, that are causing the negative feelings, I begin the process of letting them go. For me, I do this through meditation. It really helps to calm my mind and makes me aware of my thoughts, when they pop up.

The awareness of the thoughts are important. When the negative patterns arise, I immediately begin to question them, instead of just following them and getting right back into feeling bad about things.

It’s like reprogramming your mind. Each time the thoughts begin to rise, I cut them off, and question how valid they actually are. The more I interrupt the thought patterns, the less hold they can have, the less often they come up, and the emotional attachment lessen, until I let them go entirely.

Next, is the analysis of my life, and what I need to do to improve it. If I’m focused solely on someone who cheated on me and not on my life and well-being…I’m probably not in a good spot.

That’s fine. Identifying the negative feelings and their causes, is a great first step. However, we have to begin to slowly shift into a new direction, and off of the old course which no longer suits us.

Little changes add up. I don’t care how small the positive steps are at this stage, they are still useful. It’s like weight lifting, you slowly build up strength each session, until what used to be heavy is just easy to pick up.

  • What are your personal goals?
  • I mean for work, school, starting a business, health, and your dating life in the future?
  • If some of these aren’t where they need to be, how do you get to that place?
  • What are the easiest steps that you can take today and the next day, to move closer to these goals?

It can literally be as simple as reading for 15 minutes and then building upon that. Or doing a workout today, if you’re currently in bad shape, and then being consistent with it.

Getting cheated on, isn’t the end of the world. It’s just the end of that relationship and there are plenty more to be had, if you so desire. I had girlfriends in college who dumped me. It hurt like hell back then and felt like I wouldn’t recover.

Well, nowadays, I never think about any of them.

Our brain’s can get obsessive in the short term, we need to nudge them off of these addictions, and keep going on to something better. Time apart, can naturally help these things, but it won’t be as effective if you don’t take the time to grow as a person and leave that chapter of your life behind.
