Stop My Divorce
Divorces are at an all time high. Sometimes it seems that it’s easier to get a divorce than to get married.
People get hurt in divorce. The parties are forever scarred. Children, if there are any, never get over the hurt. Knowing this, you may be wondering “How do I stop my divorce?”
There are three steps to stopping a divorce.
The first thing that you have to realize is that saying you’ve changed does not mean you really have changed. If you are the person who is at fault in the relationship, it’s not enough to give lip service to the idea of change.
If you have been having affairs, for instance, it is going to take time for your partner to believe that you are no longer going back to your wandering ways. It is not enough to tell your partner that you’re not stepping out anymore. You will have to take concrete actions. As an example, you may need to allow your partner to “monitor” your activities by checking in with him or her on a frequent basis. If your job requires you to travel, you may have to look for a new job that keeps you close to home.
Other things besides affairs can mess up a relationship. For instance, if the wife’s spending habits are causing money problems which weaken the marriage, she may have to commit to cutting up the credit cards and living on a cash allowance. If the husband’s work habits keep him away from home too often, he may have to commit to being home by 6:30 every night no matter what. At the crux of this step is what is the most important thing in your life? If it is your marriage, you will make the necessary changes. But don’t just give lip service to them. Actions speak louder than words.
The next step is to avoid using emotional blackmail if you want to stop your divorce. Recognize that love is NOT enough to save your marriage. Telling your partner, “but I love you” in the heat of an argument will not win you any points. When you say “I love you” at inappropriate times, your partner is forced to say “I love you, BUT…” this weakens the emotional tie that love has between you.
Use the powerful “I love you” message when your wounds are mended, not at the heat of an argument.
You can’t use logic or guilt to change your partner’s mind. Arguing like this will only involve a spiraling argument. If you feel you must win, then you will lose.
Finally, don’t think that you can win an argument. Some people like to use their superior logic or argumentative skills to “prove” they are right and their partner is wrong. This may work in a formally scored debate, but in a marriage (which is scored on emotions not facts) it’s sure to fail. Instead of arguing, solve the problem. If your spouse brings up a fault in you, discuss possible solutions rather than argue back.
Are you wondering how to “stop my divorce?” Start by following the “stop my divorce” advice I’ve laid out in this article.

Can Me And My Boyfriend Get Back Together
Can Me And My Boyfriend Get Back Together
Many girls want to know, “can me and my boyfriend get back together?” Well, part of the answer to that question depends on you and part depends on your ex boyfriend. This video will look at the things you can do to make it more likely that you and your boyfriend can get back together.
First of all, you need to demonstrate that you have learned from past mistakes. You should look at what didn’t work the first time around and see if you can improve on it. Did he complain that you spent too much time with your girl friends? Then, plan to spend more time with him if you get back together.
The next thing you need to do is remind him of all of the good things in your relationship. Who were you when you first got together? Has anything changed? For instance, when you got together were you a bubbly outgoing girl who had lots of things on your plate? Then, as you got more involved with him, did you drop a lot of your activities? Maybe he dropped you because you weren’t as engaging as you used to be.
Put your hurt feelings aside and look at how you can support your ex boyfriend. While he’s just a friend now, by being there to support him, maybe you can turn the relationship back into something more.
If his friends were critical of you, that may have been the reason behind the break up. Try to win his friends over as they have a great deal of influence on who he chooses to date.
One of the most powerful tools you have to get your ex boyfriend back is to reminisce about the good times you shared. As you put the positive memories in his mind, he will feel more like getting back together with you.
Go to the places you used to go together and do the activities you used to do together. Not only will this make it more likely that you will just “run in” to your ex boyfriend, you will also be developing the hobbies that he enjoys. Also, if there was a pastime that he encouraged you to take up while you were in the relationship, you might want to consider doing it now. It will signal to him that you have changed and have become even more interesting.
Always look your best. You never know when you might run into him. Guys are so much more visual that girls are. So, your appearance matters.
Be a positive person. Guys don’t like depressed, whining girls. Be positive and upbeat around all kinds of people – but especially your ex!
But, whatever you do, don’t be too obvious that you are trying to get your ex boyfriend back. The pressure will make him like you less, not more.
You will notice that the advice I’ve given you here will make you a more attractive girlfriend whether it is for your ex or for a new guy. That’s because improving yourself will always get you a boyfriend.

Get My Ex Back
Get My Ex Back
Do you wonder “how do I get my ex back?” This article will show you five different strategies to get my ex back. These are not strategies that can be done in conjunction with one another. Pick one path and stick to it.
The second path is to be needy. This is not a recommended path. When you are needy, you write lots of love letters, pester them with dozens of texts or emails, and call them at least five times a day. Unless your ex is a real wimp, this will probably turn them off rather than get your ex back.
The alternative to being needy is the second path which is to be available. If you have some hope that your ex will want you back after you have given them a little bit of space, your best strategy is simply to be available. Answer their phone calls and emails, give them a shoulder to cry on, and don’t harass them about getting back together. It’s okay to go on with your life and date other people during this period, but don’t flaunt it in your ex’s face.
If you follow the available path, you’ll just “show up” places where your ex is likely to be hanging out. You’ll find occasional excuses to call your ex (but never more than once every few days).
In this path, you will also send emissaries to him or his friends broaching a reconciliation.
But if you don’t think being available is going to work, you can choose the third path which is to be aggressive – about other people. If you choose the aggressive path, you are going to play on one of mankind’s primal urges, namely jealousy.
This third path could also be called “date your ex’s best friend” because that is one of the strategies on this path.
What you will want to do is make yourself your ex’s dream girl (or guy) and then pursue his friends. When you show up at places he or she hangs out, you will pay lavish attention to your ex’s friends and none whatsoever to him or her.
When you do land a date with your ex’s friend, you should text your ex and ask him what kind of restaurant to make reservations at for your date. Get in your ex’s face with the fact that you are on the market.
As your ex sees that you are a valuable commodity, they will want you back. Jealousy is a powerful human emotion.
Be aware that playing games like this could backfire. If you invest a lot of emotion in “tricking” your ex into wanting you and he or she really is over you, you could hurt yourself badly. Only you can decide whether this strategy is worth the consequences it may cause you.
So, there are three different paths to how to “get my ex back.”

I Miss My Ex Girlfriend
I Miss My Ex Girlfriend
When you find yourself saying “I miss my ex girlfriend,” you need to find ways to move forward with your life. No matter how bad the break up was, there is life after your ex. Finding your way through the depression that follows the end of the relationship can be hard. That’s why you need to take concrete actions to move forward.
First of all, you need to work on bringing closure to the relationship. Closure is the process by which you move on from a situation. While you may find specific situations in which you say, “I miss my ex girlfriend,” you will not be in this state all of the time.
Begin by definitively saying that the relationship is over. As long as you think there is a chance that you can get your ex back, you will not be able to move on. Healing begins with putting an end to the relationship.
Next, you need to physically close the relationship. You do that by exchanging all of the possessions in the other’s care. Give her back the toothbrush and curling iron she kept at your house and ask her for the sweat shirt that she had borrowed for the long term. If you owed each other money, settle up.
Once you have your possessions back, give yourself some physical space. While you may want to remain friends with your ex in the long run, staying away in the short term will facilitate healing. Don’t call, text, or email each other. If she tries to contact you, screen her out.
And, don’t show up at places she is likely to be. You don’t want to give her any opening to get under your skin. Seeing her with another guy so soon will just prompt feelings of “I miss my ex girlfriend” all over again.
You may even need to change some of your social habits. If you go to a small church, you might want to consider changing places of worship at least in the short term. You may have to pick a new favorite bar or hang out as well.
When you start going new places, you will inevitably meet new people. Some of these people will be female. These new women are good prospects for dates.
While it may seem right now that you’ll never want to date another woman, the truth is that the sooner you get back on the dating scene, the sooner you will begin to heal.
It may not be enough to just be available though. Consider actively seeking out women. Take a class at the local university’s extension program. Join a co-ed softball team. Take up a new hobby. All of these strategies will allow you to start meeting new women.
If a woman intrigues you, ask her out even if you can’t picture yourself in a long term relationship with her. A date is just a fun social experience, not a commitment.
Pretty soon, you won’t be saying “I miss my ex girlfriend” nearly as frequently. You will have moved on with your life.

Relationships - Break Up To Make Up
Relationships - Break Up To Make Up
This is your guide: Relationships – Break Up to Make Up. The break up may be just the first stage in getting back together with an ex.
If you had been dating for any length of time, you and your ex had a lot invested in the relationship. You obviously loved and cared for each other. But something went wrong and one of you decided to call it quits. How you handle the relationship break up may have a lot to do with whether you can ever make up.
If you are the one initiating the break up, try to do it with love and compassion. Whether you are truly calling it quits or just wanting a time out, remember that this is a person who has been important to you and you have a responsibility to take his or her feelings into account.
It’s generally best to tell the person that you want to break up in a public place. That’s because people are less likely to embarrass themselves if others are around. Also, don’t draw the break up out. Just say your piece and leave.
Once you have broken up, leave the channels of communication open. Be there for your ex when he or she needs you.
Don’t play games with your ex. Some people suggest dating their best friend or flaunting a new date on your ex, but consider that if you ever make up, these things are going to haunt your new relationship.
If you have found that you want to get back together with your ex, consider the following:
· Tell them that you are interested
· Be interesting yourself – take up new activities and make new friends
· Try a new look – whether it is a new hair style or simply updating your grooming, your ex will notice.
Suggest that you meet your ex for lunch or some other non-romantic activity. During this time, you can bring up the positive memories you shared. You can also emphasize any changes you have made in your life.
If your ex gives you any indication that he or she is willing to give it a second try, don’t assume that you can start right back where you left off. Woo your boyfriend or girlfriend. Go out on romantic dates. Start by holding hands, not jumping into the sack.
Also, give your relationship time to heal from the break up. Don’t assume that your ex’s feelings weren’t hurt by the cooling off period.
Continue improving yourself. Don’t fall into bad habits just because you’ve got your ex back. Constantly strive to be the best boyfriend or girlfriend you can be.

Consider Counseling To Help Save Marriage
Consider Counseling To Help Save Marriage
If your relationship is in trouble, you might want to consider counseling to help save marriage. Your marriage is the central point in your life. All of your other relationships – with children, with family, and with friends – revolve around the marriage axis. Therefore, there is a need to help save marriage.
How do you know if marriage counseling is right for you? If you have any of these problems, you might want to consider counseling to help save your marriage:
· Infidelity
· Communication
· Conflict
· Work-Life Balance
· Problems with Children
· Blended Family Issues
· Family Violence
· Substance Abuse
A family counselor or therapist will be able to help you to enhance your family relationship by helping you to explore effective communication techniques, conflict resolution solutions, and other kinds of “coping skills” that will make your family work better. A therapist can also help you work on resolving deep issues that have carried over from childhood traumas.
So, how to you choose a family therapist? Well, you should know that you don’t have to pick the first one you call. It is perfectly acceptable to interview three to five counselors before deciding which therapist will work best for you and your spouse.
Some of the questions you might want to ask include:
· Have you worked with couples experiencing the difficulties we’re having?
· What should I expect from counseling?
· What are your treatment methods?
· What are your prices?
You can find the names of therapists by asking for referrals from friends or family members who have tried counseling themselves. There are also referral services set up by non-profit boards who can give you the name or names of licensed professionals.
If you do not get a satisfactory number of referrals, you might want to check out therapist’s sites on the internet. When the yellow pages was the only source of advertising for therapists, the consumer would get little more than a name and a phone number. But now, a counselor’s site can include a resume, articles he or she has written, and a description of their practice. You will be able to get an idea of how a therapist will work from his or her web site.
You do want to make sure that the therapist you choose is licensed. Some therapists have what is known as a MFT (Marriage & Family Therapist License) which can only be obtained after a therapist completes both a master’s degree in Psychology and 1500 hours of internship work under another licensed therapist. Other acceptable licenses include the LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker), Ph.D or Psy.D. (Psychologist with a doctorate degree) and M.D. (Psychiatrist.)
You want to choose a licensed professional because there are educational, internship, and practice standards that must be maintained to retain the license. “Relationship coaches” and others with similar names do not have similar obligations.
Different counselors have different payment options. Some offer sliding scale fees while others are able to take insurance.

The Best Way To Save Marriage Embrace Conflict
The Best Way To Save Marriage Embrace Conflict
In many states, all a husband or wife has to do to end the relationship is state to the court that there are “irreconcilable differences” and the court will grant the divorce. But, in any marriage, there should be irreconcilable differences. The best way to save marriage is to embrace the conflict that is inherent in a close partnership between two people.
We often think of divorcing couples as the ones who screamed at each other all of the time. But if these couples can communicate their needs through elevated voices, they are actually doing better than the couple that avoids all conflict at the cost of expressing their needs and beliefs.
It is these silent couples who need to save marriage through embracing conflict.
While no one is suggesting that emotional and verbal abuse is a good thing for a relationship, couples who don’t acknowledge that there are problems and differences are actually more likely to split up according to Dr. John Gottman, a researcher who runs the Love Lab.
So, if you want to save a marriage, you need to learn how to communicate and express your differences. Here are some tips for communication in marriage:
· Allow enough time for proper communication. If you are not spending enough time together to air your differences and share your strengths, you will find your relationship is in trouble. Work on building couple’s time back into your life. For instance, make a point of eating dinner together several times a week or going out on a date very week.
· Really listen when your partner speaks. It is amazing how much we tune out our partners. He or she may be telling you what you need to know. But, if you are not listening, it is all in vain.
· Find out why your partner is annoyed. When your husband or wife is being particularly grumpy, find out what is really going on. Sometimes, it may be that you have done something that has annoyed them. Other times, it may be that something completely unrelated has occurred. But you won’t know unless you ask.
· Get inside his or her world. As couples begin to drift apart, they start to live in separate worlds. When you make an attempt to get inside his or her world, you may just save the marriage.
· Stop judging. Express what needs you have and listen to your spouse’s needs. But, don’t be quick to judge or criticize.
· Be honest. One of the biggest problems for people who don’t like conflict is that they can’t be honest about what they want and need. When you start to express honest opinions about things, you will begin to save marriage.
Marriage is hard work. But, if it is worth it to you to save marriage, you will do the work. That means more communication, and yes, more conflict.

In many states, all a husband or wife has to do to end the relationship is state to the court that there are “irreconcilable differences” and the court will grant the divorce. But, in any marriage, there should be irreconcilable differences. The best way to save marriage is to embrace the conflict that is inherent in a close partnership between two people.
We often think of divorcing couples as the ones who screamed at each other all of the time. But if these couples can communicate their needs through elevated voices, they are actually doing better than the couple that avoids all conflict at the cost of expressing their needs and beliefs.
It is these silent couples who need to save marriage through embracing conflict.
While no one is suggesting that emotional and verbal abuse is a good thing for a relationship, couples who don’t acknowledge that there are problems and differences are actually more likely to split up according to Dr. John Gottman, a researcher who runs the Love Lab.
So, if you want to save a marriage, you need to learn how to communicate and express your differences. Here are some tips for communication in marriage:
· Allow enough time for proper communication. If you are not spending enough time together to air your differences and share your strengths, you will find your relationship is in trouble. Work on building couple’s time back into your life. For instance, make a point of eating dinner together several times a week or going out on a date very week.
· Really listen when your partner speaks. It is amazing how much we tune out our partners. He or she may be telling you what you need to know. But, if you are not listening, it is all in vain.
· Find out why your partner is annoyed. When your husband or wife is being particularly grumpy, find out what is really going on. Sometimes, it may be that you have done something that has annoyed them. Other times, it may be that something completely unrelated has occurred. But you won’t know unless you ask.
· Get inside his or her world. As couples begin to drift apart, they start to live in separate worlds. When you make an attempt to get inside his or her world, you may just save the marriage.
· Stop judging. Express what needs you have and listen to your spouse’s needs. But, don’t be quick to judge or criticize.
· Be honest. One of the biggest problems for people who don’t like conflict is that they can’t be honest about what they want and need. When you start to express honest opinions about things, you will begin to save marriage.
Marriage is hard work. But, if it is worth it to you to save marriage, you will do the work. That means more communication, and yes, more conflict.

I Miss My Ex Boyfriend
I Miss My Ex Boyfriend
After you break up with a guy, there is a period of loneliness. Not only are you missing the time that you spent with him, but there is also a piece of your heart that walked out the door when he did. If you are saying “I miss my ex boyfriend,” here are some ways to get past the feeling.
There are two steps to getting over an ex. The first is to bring closure to the relationship and the second is to start on the next phase of your life.
Closure is the psychological term for ending a phase of one’s life. There are many things you can do to stop saying “I miss my ex boyfriend.”
First of all, you should determine that he doesn’t want you back. As long as you think that there is a chance you can get back together, you will not begin to heal.
To that end, exchange all of the physical possessions you have. Don’t keep his toothbrush in your bathroom or hold on to his leather jacket. If you have left clothes or other possessions at his house, pick them up.
If either of you owes the other money, pay it back as soon as possible.
Don’t contact him and don’t let him contact you. Perhaps you can be friends in the future, but right now, you need time to separate your emotional lives. If you give in and answer his phone calls, emails, or texts, you are just letting a wound fester.
If you find yourself saying “I miss my ex boyfriend,” sit down and write about it. Write a letter to him sharing your feelings about the relationship and the break up. But don’t send it to him. Throw it away, or even better, burn it. This will help you bring closure to the relationship.
After you’ve gotten over the initial hurt of the break up, start putting yourself out there again. It might feel awkward at first, but you are going to have to face life as a single person sometime. The sooner you get back on the scene, the sooner you will meet someone new.
If your ex took up a big part of your life, you will want to find new past times. This may mean reconnecting with your girlfriends. Or, it may mean going out and finding new friends.
One of the best ways to fill the space an old boyfriend took up is to start something new. Join a class or a co-ed sports team. See if your local book store has a monthly book club. Start going to church again.
While it may be hard to get started on the social scene again, you will find that you miss your ex boyfriend much less when you are engaged in activities you enjoy.
When you have the opportunity to, start dating again. Even if the first guy isn’t someone you can see spending the rest of your life with, accept his invitation to dinner or the movies. As you get back into the routine of dating, you will be able to find a man who can appreciate and love you.
Whenever you hear yourself thinking “I miss my ex boyfriend,” do something that either brings closure to the relationship or propels you to move forward in your life.

How To Save My Marriage
How To Save My Marriage
Do you wonder “how to save my marriage?” This article tells you how to save your marriage.
First, you need to identify the trouble in your relationship. Some common troubles include:
· Money concerns
· Child rearing difficulties
· Lack of sex
· Lack of communication
· Loss of identity
And, of course, there are many others. You may discover that there is one main problem or you may identify several smaller problems that are eating away at your marriage.
When you identify the problem or problems that are at the root of your marriage troubles, you will be able to move on to the next step which is close, personal interaction.
In this step, you will need to be open to extensive conversation. If you have not had a lot of open communication during your marriage, you may want to consider counseling in order to facilitate the personal interaction that is key to this step.
If you really want to save your marriage, you will set aside time to work on your marriage issues every single day. You could set aside some time like after the children go to bed or you could decide to take a walk after dinner every day for just the two of you. But, you should plan to get back in touch with each other. A daily habit of quality time with your spouse is very important.
Take some “romantic time” each week. For some couples, this means reinstating a “date night” every week. On Tuesdays, for instance, you get a sitter and go out for a picnic or walk around the mall. As you can see, this doesn’t have to involve wine and roses every week, but a romantic time that you can look forward to all week is essential.
As you spend time together being romantic and discussing your problems, you must have an open mind toward what your partner is telling you. You need to understand that a lot of the problems in your marriage are caused by – get this – you! Until you really listen to your partner, you are not going to be able to effect the kind of personal change necessary to save your marriage.
You need to have faith in your partner. You need to give him or her the benefit of the doubt. You need to believe that the marriage still can and will work. You also need to believe that your partner is still essentially the same person he or she was when you married them. If you cannot have faith in your partner and in your marriage, you might as well give up now.
Finally, you have to be open to forgiveness. If your partner has made mistakes – even major ones – you must be able to forgive. If you insist that there are things that cannot be forgiven, there is no hope for your marriage.
Everyone makes mistakes. Some people make big mistakes. If that person makes a genuine apology – which includes acts of contrition and an effort to change – they deserve forgiveness.
This article gave you answers to that perplexing question, “how to save my marriage.”

Do You Want To Save Your Marriage
Do You Want To Save Your Marriage
I have one question for you: do you want to save your marriage? If the answer is yes, you have a hard road ahead of you. But, before you start down that path, you have to answer this question in the affirmative.
Take a hard look at the state of your marriage. Is this the person you want to be with in five years?
If not, you don’t need to read any further. Just go down to the closest divorce attorney.
Still with me? Good. I’m going to show you how to save your marriage.
Once you have decided that your marriage is worth saving, you can start to do the work that is necessary. Don’t even think about going to the divorce lawyer any more. You’ve made the commitment to stick with your relationship.
Now that you have put divorce out of your mind, accept that there will have to be changes in the relationship. If you want the relationship to work more than your partner does, then you are the one who is going to have to do the most changing. That’s a simple fact. It is like the person who has the bigger aversion to messiness usually does the most cleaning around the house. The person who wants the relationship to work more will have to do the most changing.
You have to be prepared to talk more too. Set aside time to get to know your partner once again. If he or she has hobbies that they are willing to share with you, get involved even if you are not all that into darts or scrap-booking.
If your partner is willing to agree to it, marriage counseling may be what you need to save your marriage. A relationship counselor or therapist will be able to look at your marriage from the outside, ask probing questions, and get you to open up to each other.
There is no such thing as a perfect relationship. Once you have the “ideal” out of your head, you will be able to work on what is real and what is good. These are the standards you should be applying to your marriage.
Do you want to save your marriage? Good. But know the hard work lies ahead.

What Are The Most Effective Get Him Back Secrets
What Are The Most Effective Get Him Back Secrets
If you're going through a breakup that you don't want you might be wondering how you can get back with your ex. Are there really any "get him back secrets" and if so, what are they?
If you are looking for some relationship secrets I've got good news and I've got bad news.
The bad news is that there aren't, at least as far as I've ever heard, any secret techniques to get back with your ex. There are no secret potions or love spells or magic tricks that will bring your ex back crawling on his hands and knees just pleading with you to take him back.
The good news is that you don't need secrets. All you need is an easy to follow, simple step by step "road map" that you can use to reconcile with your ex. If you find a good plan and follow it, even though it may be hard sometimes to stick to, the results that you get might have you believing that it was magical after all!
If you truly want to get back with your ex the first thing you need to do, even though this is going to sound weird, is to stop talking to him. If you are constantly contacting him this will likely backfire for a few reasons:
1) He won't be able to miss you. You want him to start to doubt his decision to end the relationship. He needs to miss the times you spent together and the things you did. If you're constantly trying to contact him how can he miss you?
2) If you won't leave him alone you are just becoming an annoyance. That is not how you want him to think of you, is it?
Another thing you have to avoid is the tendency to want to fix the relationship and change yourself so he will come back. While it is important for you to understand what qualities you have that might need some work, you should never change who you are just to accommodate someone else.
If the two of you aren't compatible then it's time for you to move on, no matter how painful it might be. It's simply not healthy for you to reinvent yourself for every relationship you have and it is a good way to find yourself in one abusive relationship after another.
And last, but not least, communicate. That doesn't mean cry, nag, beg or threaten. That means to have an adult conversation where you can openly and honestly explain to him how you're feeling. It's also important that you let him tell you how he is feeling too. This isn't the time to get angry or upset over what he tells you. This needs to be a 'safe zone' for both of you to honestly express yourself.
If you think that your relationship really is worth saving and you want " get him back secrets" than follow the list above. This is an honest and proven way to reconcile with your love.

Can Positive Thinking Get My Boyfriend Back
Can Positive Thinking Get My Boyfriend Back
After going through a difficult breakup most people would be willing to try just about anything to stop the pain and get their love back. If you have done everything you can think of to do and are now wondering, 'how to get back with ex husband?", then this article is for you.
There has been a lot of talk recently about the effects of positive thinking and how it can impact your daily life. Using this process to get back with your boyfriend seems like a logical next step. But it isn't the do all, end all you may have heard. There is more to it than just the thinking part.
To successfully use positive thinking to make the desired changes in your life you have to remember that it takes two steps: picture what you want, and take specific action to make that want a reality.
Just sitting around day dreaming about getting your boyfriend back won't do it. But thinking about getting your boyfriend back while you take positive steps to make it happen will be more likely to work.
So what positive steps should you be taking? Usually this is where most people mess up, they take a lot of action but it's all the wrong kinds of action.
You don't want to constantly text, email and call your ex. That won't accomplish a thing except perhaps a restraining order. What you want to do is leave it alone.
I know this sounds wrong, but it's not. No one is attracted to a clingy, weepy, desperate person and your ex won't be either. You need to take a step back and spend some time working on you. Don't change who you are to get your boyfriend back, but honestly analyze any areas in your life that could use a little change of attitude. This is for you not for him.
The beauty of this is that you make yourself into a better person all the while giving him time to miss you and remember why he fell in love with you in the first place.
That way no matter what happens, whether you get back together or not, you will have grown as a person and will have more to offer whomever you find yourself in a relationship with.
Can positive thinking get my boyfriend back? Yes...sort of. Just remember that positive thinking is only step 1 in a 2 step method. Use both steps to have the absolute best chance of accomplishing your goals.

How Can I Save Our Relationship- Is It Even Possible
How Can I Save Our Relationship- Is It Even Possible
I'm sorry. If you're reading this you must be having a very rough time in your relationship. I know how difficult that can be. If you are asking, 'How can I save our relationship?" I do have some tips that might be able to make a difference for you and your partner.
There are a few things you have to consider very carefully and honestly first. You have to decide why you want to save your relationship. That might sound like a dumb comment to make but sometimes we cling to things that we should just let go. We cling for the wrong reasons such as fear of being alone. Before you invest too much time and emotion in trying to save your relationship first make sure that it should be saved.
Now that you've done your honest soul searching and you've decided that your relationship is worth saving here are a few tips you can follow which should help:
1) It's not all about you. So often in relationships one person tends to carry more of the burden. They are the 'fixer'. They are the ones who carry most of the emotional baggage. If that person is you than you have to realize that you can't do it all. If your relationship is going to be saved your partner has to be able, and willing, to meet you halfway.
2) Try to communicate without condemning or criticizing. When a relationship starts to falter there are a lot of hurt feelings and frustrations from both parties. These hurts can build up into a huge wall of resentment. That wall is very tough to tear down. It will take a lot of time, patience, and open communication.
If the two of you aren't good at communicating you might need to find resources such as a book or counseling, that can help you work on your communication skills.
3) Own it. If you've screwed up you need to be a mature adult and admit your mistake and apologize for it. This is key. Remember in step 2 when I talked about resentments building up? You can do a lot to ease those resentments if you just own up to your mistakes and offer a sincere apology for the hurt you may have caused. To someone who loves you and wants to make things work this will be a very sweet sound.
Follow these 3 steps and you will be well on your way to answering the question " how can i save our relationship?". Remember, the problems didn't spring up overnight and they're not going to go away overnight either. But if the two of you are willing to work together you can get back the loving, fulfilling relationship you both want.

These hurts can build up into a huge wall of resentment. That wall is very tough to tear down. It will take a lot of time, patience, and open communication.
If the two of you aren't good at communicating you might need to find resources such as a book or counseling, that can help you work on your communication skills.
3) Own it. If you've screwed up you need to be a mature adult and admit your mistake and apologize for it. This is key. Remember in step 2 when I talked about resentments building up? You can do a lot to ease those resentments if you just own up to your mistakes and offer a sincere apology for the hurt you may have caused. To someone who loves you and wants to make things work this will be a very sweet sound.
Follow these 3 steps and you will be well on your way to answering the question " how can i save our relationship?". Remember, the problems didn't spring up overnight and they're not going to go away overnight either. But if the two of you are willing to work together you can get back the loving, fulfilling relationship you both want.

Ex Girlfriend Wanting To Get Back - How Do I Do It
Ex Girlfriend Wanting To Get Back - How Do I Do It
It's a classic and tragic story. Boy meets girl, boy loses girl, boy just wants girl back. It's so common that you could place an ad in the local paper: "ex girlfriend wanting to get back, please help."
Even though it happens everyday that doesn't make it any easier when it's you that's going through it. It is still painful and it still sucks.
You don't need to give up though. There are a few things you can do that will make things easier, make you a better man and maybe help you get your ex girlfriend back too.
1) The first thing you want to do is cease and desist all calls, texts, emails, etc. It will be one of the hardest things you've ever done but you have to stop chasing her. Think about it for a minute. When someone is chased what do they do? That's right, they run. You don't want to push her further away from you. Back off and give her some space.
Remember, no one likes a weak, whiny, insecure person. That's just not a turn on. Your ex is no different. Don't cling or you will only push her further away.
2) Have fun. I know that this sounds like ridiculous advice, but it's imporatant. It kind of relates to step 1. Go out with friends and try to live everyday to the fullest. If you can do this you will benefit in a couple of ways.
For one thing she will hear about all the fun you're having and she will start to miss the fun the two of you used to have. She will also remember why she fell in love with you in the first place.
It will also help you to keep your mind off of your ex for a little while. That is a good way to keep from going crazy during this difficult time.
A word of caution though: don't use this step as a pathetic and childish attempt to make her jealous. That is very immature and doesn't work. If you really care about your ex and you want her back you should avoid stupid, destructive and childish games. No good relationship can ever be built on those traits.
3) Try to communicate with her. Don't argue, or badger. Just talk...and listen. This isn't about being right, it's about trying to truly understand where the other person is coming from. This is a time to put your ego on hold.
If you feel like you should place an ad in your local paper that says: "ex girlfriend wanting to get back" than you are pretty serious about getting your ex back. Follow the simple tips I've listed here and you have a much better shot at making that happen. And you can save the money on the ad!

What Are The Emotional Stages Of A Relationship Breakup
What Are The Emotional Stages Of A Relationship Breakup
The emotional roller coaster of a painful breakup generally affects both parties in similar ways. The intensity may be different for the person who wanted the breakup than for the 'dumpee', but both people will go through the emotional stages of a relationship breakup.
Knowing and recognizing the different steps for what they are can help you move through the process a little easier. Each stage is necessary so you can heal and be whole and able to find love again some day. Don't try to shrotcut the steps, just remember that after you've gone through each stepyou will be on the road to feeling better.
There is no time limit for how long each step should take to get through. How long it takes will depend on a lot of things such as how secure you are in yourself and what type of a support system you have.
Here are the 5 major steps in a relationship breakup:
1) Pain. This will often hit hard and fast. At first the pain can be diminished somewhat by a feeling of disbelief but once that passes the pain can seem unbearable. This is a physical pain. You might not be able to eat or sleep. Everything seems like too much effort. You just want to crawl into a corner and be left alone.
2) Denial. This is the step when you start thinking that it is all a big mistake and surely your ex will realize it very soon and the two of you will be back together. That can be a dangerous way to think. It is important that you try to move through this stage as quickly as possible. Lingering too long in this stage can really make it harder to heal and move on.
3) Anger. This is when all your fear and hurt turns to anger. You are outraged that someone who claimed to love you could hurt you so deeply. This stage is very destructive and hurtful to both parties and if you're not careful how you handle this stage you migh sabotage any chances you have of getting back together.
It's also important to make sure you don't become overly bitter. If you let that bitterness grow too strong it could follow you into other relationships making it harder to ever having a fulfilling relationship again.
4) Grieving. At this stage you will mourn your lost relationship. You will often spend a lot of time reminiscing about all the good times the two of you had shared. It is very important to keep a close watch on your mental health during this stage.
If you ever feel like 'ending it all' make sure you seek help immediately. It is impossible to believe while going through this but you really will love again, if you allow yourself to.
5) Acceptance. You will finally reach a point where you realize it's over. You are stronger and better able to start thinking more about your future and less about your past. This time can be bittersweet: you've realized and dealt with the fact that your relationship is over which is sad, but you're also excited about new opportunities and convinced you will find love again.
The more you know about the emotional stages of a relationship breakup
and how to deal with them the easier and quicker you can move on from living in the past to a bright new future. Just make sure you understand that this is all normal and it will get better, just hang in there.

Evaluating Your Relationship With Your Partner - Before You Take Your Relationship To The Next Level
Evaluating Your Relationship With Your Partner - Before You Take Your Relationship To The Next Level
It doesn't matter if you've been in a relationship for a while or if it's brand new, most people will reach a point where they are considering taking their relationship to the next level. The next level could mean anything from physical intimacy to a walk down the aisle. No matter what the next level is for you, now is the time to start evaluating your relationship with your partner.
While it may seem like this would be an easy thing to do it can actually be very difficult. There are a few reasons why achieving an honest evaluation can be a tough thing for people:
1) If you wait too long to honestly access the quality and strength of your relationship you may already be in too deep to be able to objectively analyze the weak points in your partner and your relationship.
Once you've fallen for that person you will see only what you want to see. Few people will still have the strength to honestly admit that there might be a problem. They will turn a blind eye and pretend that everything is great.
2) During the early days and most of the 'dating phase' of a relationship your partner, and you, can be very guarded and careful of what they let the other see. With some people it's a deliberate attempt to hide their true colors with other's it's a more innocent "putting the best foot forward" type of thing.
Either way this tendency can make an honest evaluation very difficult.
One of the most important things you can do to try to have a secure and fulfilling relationship is to honestly evaluate the strength of your partner and the relationship early on.
It's also important to take your time. Too many people ignore the warning signs because they just want to be with someoone so badly they are willing to be mis-treated just so they don't have to be alone.
If you really want a strong relationship make sure you are strong first. If you are happy with you and you have made a full life for yourself filled with people and activities that make you happy, then you won't be so desperate for a relationship that you allow yourself to be mis-treated.
Honestly evaluating your relationship with your partner is something everyone should do, but few actually do. The earlier you do it the easier it will be to see things clearly as they really are and not just as you want them to be. That is the difference between a happy and loving relationship and an unhappy and potentiallly abusive relationship.

The earlier you do it the easier it will be to see things clearly as they really are and not just as you want them to be. That is the difference between a happy and loving relationship and an unhappy and potentiallly abusive relationship.

I Lost Love
I Lost Love
Are you still holding a candle for your ex, telling your friends and family 'I lost the love of my life'? If that sounds like you then there might still be hope to get your relationship back. There are some things anyone can do to make an ex fall madly in love with you all over again. You really can rekindle that old flame.
The first thing you need to think about is what might have gone wrong. Stop worrying about telling people 'I lost love' and think about what positive steps you can take instead. When you can identify what you think went wrong in the relationship, you're in a good position to begin working on tactics to rectify it and then put some things in place to get your relationship back.
All relationships begin filled with excitement and adrenaline. You both want to please the other person, so you make a big effort to look good and say the right things. You both enjoy each others company, because you're both trying really hard to be enjoyable.
At this point most relationships move into a comfortable phase, where you both feel a little more relaxed. This is the phase where many relationships break up and it can take anywhere from a month to a year to reach this point, and even longer with other people.
Unfortunately, some women misread the signals from their man. They think his comfortable phase means he's pulling away. Most women's first instinct is to try hard to bring him closer again. The usual tactic they try is to cling tighter to him, wanting to see him more often and wanting him to reassure her that he's not leaving.
The reality is men view these tactics as desperation and neediness, which makes them pull away. When their fun-loving, happy girlfriends begin these frantic efforts to cling to them, men feel as though they've lost the girl they fell in love with. Instead, they have a stranger who is making him feel as though he can't do anything right. This is the main reason why men begin to pull away from their girlfriends.
By taking a bit of time out after a break up and working on finding your own confidence again means that you'll realize you have the power to make yourself happy. You can pursue interests that please you or hang out with friends who make you feel good. These activities should also help you to realize that you don't need your ex to make you feel happy. You can do that yourself.
With your new self-confidence and positive attitude, you're in a much better position to call your ex and suggest getting together for a friendly chat over a cup of coffee. Let him see that you've found that happy, confident girl he fell in love with and his feelings will come rushing back. Remember, in the beginning of your relationship, it was the happy, easy going version of you that he fell in love with.
No relationship is perfect and of course you'll have moments where things aren't so perfect, but by making sure you both enjoy the time you spend with each other, you'll be less likely to be telling people 'I lost love' and more likely to tell people 'I found the love of my life'.
