Sometimes relationships end because of what seems like an intolerable situation.

Then, after some time passes, one realizes that things were not so bad after all and they want to get this ex-girlfriend, boyfriend, wife or husband back.

Unfortunately, getting your ex back is not always easy, especially when harsh words have been spoken or actions taken.

Analyze The Situations

Before any attempt at reconciliation is made it is necessary to analyze, not only the situation that caused the breakup but oneself as well.

Was the fault yours or the other party's?

Were you doing something that was very annoying or was the other party?

Admit Your Mistakes!

One of the hardest things for a person to admit is that they have faults and might have been the cause of the problem.

Sitting down and reviewing all the details of what happened gives one time to set things straight in their mind.

Even taking a piece of paper and pencil and writing down, step by step, what happened it will often make it simple to see what led to the breakup.

Prepare to Say I'm Sorry!

Unfortunately, when there is a breakup there are often words said that are deeply regretted and one wishes they could take them back.

This does not happen so the thing to do, before attempting to reunite, is to be ready to say, "I'm sorry".

However, one should be prepared to have this not accepted at face value as hurts have a tendency to go deep in the other person's memories.

Change Things!

If one finds that their own problems or accusations were the cause of the breakup then, before any contact is made, one must decide how they are going to change things.

If the wife, for example, complained about frequent nights out with the boys, it is time to grow up and start acting like a family.

On the other hand, if the husband complained about too much spending then it is time to sit down and decide which you would rather have, a husband or new clothes that will soon be out of style.

Prioritise

Putting things in priority, in the matter of their importance, is one of the very important things necessary in repairing a relationship.

Once this has been done, and repairing the relationship is number one, then it is time to go into action.

This is not going to be easy and will take some time.

Make Contact

Sometimes, when trying to contact the other person, they will refuse to answer the phone or return phone calls.

Remember, they are probably still smarting over what went on that caused the breakup.

In this case, getting an appropriate card that says one is sorry and wishes to make amends will usually put the closed door ajar.

On the card, in addition to apologizing, stating that one would like to meet, have dinner and talk the situation over, listing a time and place to meet is opening the door a little farther.

This will give the other party a chance to think it over because they are probably lonely and upset too.

Be sure the card says something like 'please confirm' and give a phone number to call.

Approach Carefuly

Assuming that the other party does meet to talk one must be very careful in how they approach the idea of getting back together.

Hitting them in the head with the idea of an immediate reconciliation seldom works.

Things still hurt too badly.

At this time, if at fault, one might have to eat a little crow and explain that things have changed and such incidences will not happen again.

Courting Process All Over Again

The thing is, one will have to start the courting process all over again.

Remembering the things done as a couple, where both had a fun time, that is the start of a conversation.

Then presenting the idea of again going, as a couple, to the park, the amusement park or wherever will usually be received with relief that there is no pressure to immediately move back in together.

It will probably take weeks before the relationship is close to what was had before.

It is going to take a lot of work to convince the other party that one is willing to mend their ways in order to have a good reconciliation.

As time goes on, things will improve and the idea of being together again, on a permanent basis, will gradually become an accepted fact.

Final Thoughts

If the fault of the breakup is the other person and they have made no effort to reconcile then one needs to take a close look and decide if they wish to be in that relationship again. Sometimes, when they are contacted, it will turn out that they are sorry for their actions but didn't know how to go about rectifying the situation.

One thing people forget, especially if they are newly married or have been married a short time is that arguments do happen. Two people, with different personalities, are never going to completely agree on everything. What one must ask themselves, "Is it really important if we miss going to the beach this week?" or "Is it really earthshaking if a bill was accidentally overlooked?" When one thinks about it, many of the arguments are about nothing important. The funny thing is that harsh words are often said over nothing. It is important, once in awhile, to admit that one was wrong in a decision. The event will often be forgotten after a few days.

Admitting that every relationship has its ups and downs and being able to 'go with the flow' is essential if that relationship is to survive. People who have been married 50 years or so have had hundreds of arguments over the years, yet they loved each other enough to forgive and forget. Sure, feelings will be hurt along the way but one must learn to rise above the occasion.

Some things connected with a breakup make it impossible to repair or, if repaired, the feelings are never the quite same. This is when one or the other is sexually involved with another person. Sometimes this is a onetime affair but it is very hard for the injured party to forget. Sometimes such a situation can be worked out with a counselor but, unfortunately, the seed of doubt has been sowed and it is difficult to get rid of.

Thank you for reading my (very long) article. Whatever your situation is, and whatever you plan to do, I wish you all the luck in the world getting your ex back! And remember, be strong!
