In your attempt to get your ex back,5 Best Ways to Get Your Ex Back: How to Get Back in Touch Articles you may have reached the point when you think it is the right time to get back in touch. This is the crucial juncture. You have to do the right things while re-establishing communication to have a chance. Here are some communication strategies you could use to revive your relationship.

1. Sending a Message Vs Talking Directly

The good thing about life in the 21st century is that there are so many means of communication available. You no longer need to dial her number and hope for the best. You could SMS, email, send a Facebook message or even tweet. It is best if you exploit these opportunities to get your ex back. When you don't know how your ex is feeling towards you, live communication, either face to face or over the phone is not necessarily the best option. A conversation may just overwhelm her and lead to an awkward situation. On the other hand, a message, whatever the forum, is less demanding and pressing.

2. Short and Light Message

If you didn't break up on very amicable terms, your first message needn't be something too personal and emotional. Keep it light and short. You could send across a few snaps from a trip you took, a joke or something interesting that you have come across recently. Send your ex a personal line with your message as well. Something like, 'I thought of you when I saw this...how are you?' should do just fine. The idea is not to get too impatient in your attempt to get your ex back.

3. If She Doesn't Respond...

You may not necessarily get an immediate response, but that's alright. Wait patiently, but if a couple of weeks pass without a response, it may be time for you to send across another message. Be gently persuasive this time, with a 'call to action'. A line like 'would love to hear from you', or 'have been thinking about you, would be glad to hear how you are', should serve your bid to revive your relationship just fine.

4. Continuing Communication

If your ex responds favorably (even an emotionally neutral response counts), it is important to keep communication going. However, don't be too aggressive. You don't want to jump in to a date or phone calls. Once you see that you have started a nice rapport, you can then graduate to the next step. What that step should be you need to decide depending on the dynamics of your relationship and the kind of person your ex is. Eventually you will share with her that you wish to revive your relationship, but you don't want that step to come too soon for her.

5. When Live Conversations Begin...

When you start talking directly, it is important that your conversations are light and happy. You don't want to get intense straightaway, and whatever you do, keep away from anything that can potentially lead to a fight or a bad mood. That could be a disaster in your attempt to get your ex back.

At the end of the day, if you are patient and perceptive, you should be able to strike a chord again with your ex and revive your relationship. However, you need to remember that there is no one who can give you some magical secret as a perfect guarantee that you will get your ex back. You need to try your best and hope for the best!
