1. The most important thing to remember is that you need to have patience. You don’t want to try and rush things. When you cross paths with your ex, a simple smile, wave, or “Hi” will do. Make sure he knows you are directing the greeting towards him and not someone else, but make sure you leave it at just a quick greeting for now.
2. As time goes on, slowly begin to make brief, casual conversations with him when possible. Avoid telling to much about yourself as this adds mystery, which a lot of men find appealing. If you happen to see each other at a party or other large gathering, make sure you more time with your friends than him. This will let him know that although things or cool between the two of you, he is NOT your main priority right now. Even better, do a little flirting with others when he is around.
3. Keep yourself looking  and smelling great. Show you are confident and have a lot of self respect by always keeping up your appearance. This is something many men find very attractive in a woman.
4. Don’t forget to make your ex feel good when he is around you as well. Give him a few sincere compliments every now and then. When talking about the time the two of you were together, make sure you only mention the good memories. You want to help him remember the great times you had together as you work on how to get him back.

Sooner or later, your ex will let you know if he wants you back. You want to be there as a friend for him. Take it slowly. You do not want to come across as being to needy. Just relax and let him come to you. If it’s meant to be, then it will happen and you will have found out how to get him back.

These steps are just the first steps in getting your ex back. Many others have used these steps to get back someone they love. If you would like more help in finding out how to get him back, there is a simple, step-by-step plan I recommend. You can read more about it here, The Magic of Making Up Guide.

1. The first thing you need to do is have a clear head. It’s easy for others to tell when you mind is way to distracted from your breakup. You ex will surely know, so clear your head of all your thoughts of how much you want them back. Stop stressing out about what’s going to happen in the future with the two of you.  This will help with getting your ex back because you will be better able to communicate with your ex if you are thinking clearly.
2. Do not sell out if you really want your ex back. Even though you feel like you should do whatever it takes to get your ex back, do not resort to desperate measures like begging and groveling. This will not help the situation. What will help is by you being strong and calm. You need to be focusing on being able to function quite well without them. This is a sure way to grab their attention again.
3. Create a “Wow” factor for yourself to get your ex back. Don’t rely on your old self to help with getting your ex back. Your old self had a part in the relationship coming to an end, so change things up and create a new you. If you are out of shape then start working out and eating right. Maybe find a better job. By creating a better image of yourself, you give your ex something to take notice of and respond positively to.
4. Do not forget the past when trying to get your ex back. You do not want to dwell on the past, but at the same time, you need to remember what happened to cause the break up. Take the past events and turn them into a positive learning experience. Doing this will help ensure that you do not repeat your past mistakes when, and if, you do eventually get back together with your ex.
5. And the last thing to do to get your ex back is to create a plan. Do not expect positive results by just letting your emotions take over. You need to think logically and work accordingly to be successful with getting your ex back. By tackling this head on with a solid plan, you will be able to get your ex back sooner than you think.
