Change Your Mind About Getting Your Ex Back
For those of you who are stressing about getting your ex back, a few simple words of wisdom to shift your perspective.
Getting back with your ex is not about learning what to say or what to do. Getting back with your ex is about making a change in your mindset, your self-perception, and your self-respect. And it’s as simple as changing your mind about a few things. So, take a moment to consider…
… that instead of trying to prove yourself to your ex, you could realize you don’t need to, and shouldn’t try, to prove yourself to anyone.
… that instead of dropping everything and immediately responding when they reach out, you could choose to take care of whatever you’re doing first and only reply when you’re actually not busy anymore. Besides, sometimes the best move is no move.
… that instead of trying to impress them, you could wonder if they’ll work on impressing you.
… that instead of clawing for your ex’s validation, you could settle to just validate yourself more.
…that before you send them that fourth text or call them up for the second time in a row, you could ask yourself if they have texted back or returned your calls recently.
