Winning Back Lost Love - Don't Play Head Games

Everyone has a theory about winning back lost love. Some of them work, some of them don't. The biggest mistake you can make is to play head games with your ex if you are attempting reconciliation.

Messing with anybody's head is a sure way to ensure that the relationship never gets back on solid ground. If you think playing head games is a sure way for winning back lost love, you'd better think again.

When you are first going out, you'd often get two dozen text messages a day. You spent long hours on the phone, talking about everything. Now, the phone is silent. Consider calling your ex at least once a week to make sure they are all right and talk to them briefly in a non-threatening way. This will let them know that you're still thinking about them.

Call your ex on important days, such as her birthday. Consider sending her a card or small gift that isn't too extravagant yet shows your thoughtfulness.

Try to keep in touch by e-mail. Don't just drop off the face of the earth, but also don't make a pest of yourself. Remember, you want to keep in touch, but you don't want to invade her space. Often after a breakup a person needs space think things out. If by any chance she tells you to leave her alone, do so. The last thing you want to do is make her angrier than she already is.

If you decide to date others while trying to get your ex back, don't get upset if she doesn't same thing. Never sleep around. This is one of the biggest killers of a relationship there is.

Winning back lost love is an exercise in good judgment and common sense. Try your hardest to show no anger or resentment. Be kind and courteous, and if she needs space, allow her that privilege.
