If you have recently broken up with someone and are wondering, “How to get my boyfriend back,” you should know that you’re not alone.  Even if the break-up was initially your idea, it is totally normal to want to get back together.  And unless you have specifically asked them, you don’t know what your ex is feeling.  They may be missing you as well and want to patch things up.  But so many people think that once they break-up with someone they should just “move on.”

No one “should” do anything they don’t feel is the right thing in their heart.  If you really believe you belong with your ex, then don’t you owe it to yourself, (AND your ex) to try to patch things up?  If you are questioning, “Can I save my relationship?”  then you may want to try out these tips to get your boyfriend back.
Step One    

It is important to determine WHY you split up.  Even if you’ve been mulling it over and over again, your assumption about why you broke up may or may not be accurate.  It can be really hard to gain some perspective about something that can be so emotional for you.  The best way to complete this step is to ask an unbiased friend or relative why THEY think you and your ex broke up. 
Step Two

Do NOT try to make your ex jealous.  This is a totally common mistake.  But so often, even if they ARE jealous because they think you’re seeing someone else, they won’t DO anything about it, other than possibly start seeing someone themselves.  Jealousy can be a negative and hurtful emotion.  Even though break-ups are hard and you may be yelling, “Help save my relationship!” to anyone who will listen, try to keep things positive and avoid the jealousy route.
Step Three

Try to set up a time to meet your ex for coffee or something likewise non-scary sounding.  Do NOT come off as needy or you may scare them further away.  Make this request in a calm, collected manner and NEVER let them know how desperate you are to get back together.  If they ask what you want to talk about, tell them that you just need to talk things out.
