The popularity of social media, such as Facebook, has created a whole new way to communicate with friends, family and, yes, even our ex boyfriend or girlfriend. Facebook allows us to portray ourselves in different ways and to control the way our friends and family perceive us. Used effectively, you can get your ex back with the Facebook strategy.
Following a breakup, the tendency might be to cut off all forms of communication, at least for a while. My advice, if you and your ex have been "friends" on Facebook, is don't "un-friend" him or her after the breakup.
Chances are your ex won't un-friend you either. Even if he does, he'll be able to follow you through the walls of mutual friends. There's always a curiosity about what the other person is doing or thinking and Facebook provides that otherwise secret glimpse into each others' lives. Facebook allows us to track (I'll try to avoid the word "stalk") our ex in a socially acceptable way.
Used incorrectly, your ex may un-friend you and your chance of reconciliation are diminished. Follow these guidelines for a successful Facebook strategy.
Your Facebook Strategy for Getting Your Ex Back
1. Change your profile picture and change it often. Use a picture your ex hasn't seen that shows you beaming and looking hot. As you change your look get new photos taken.
2. Change your relationship status. No sense hiding this from the world.
3. Do Not mention your ex in any posts. Enough said.
4. Do not respond to any posts that mention your ex.
5. Get chatty with your friends. Use this as an opportunity to let everyone know how active you are and how you are enjoying life.
6. Post frequently about trips and events you've enjoyed with other friends.
7. Post some party pics. Keep them clean and respectable. No sloppy drunk pictures. Keep the flirty pictures to a minimum.
8. Join Facebook groups. You want your wall to show how active you are and how you are expanding your interests. Be selective. Don't join any and all groups. You want to create the right perception.
9. Get friendly. Expand your friend list. Friend everyone you meet.
10. Don't flirt. Not an acceptable Facebook etiquette anyway, so don't be tempted.
11. If your ex writes on your wall, reply with a direct message. Try to keep your initial conversations with you ex private.
You get the picture. You want to portray yourself as happy, confident, connected and ready to walk through doors that are opening for you. You avoid the mistake of making direct contact with your ex and you don't violate the "time and space" rule.
Most important, your ex gets the picture of who you are and it's strikingly different than the one he or she left behind. With the Facebook strategy you can become freshly attractive to your ex, and that's the first step in your quest to get back together.
You can get your ex back with a Facebook strategy, but it's only the beginning. You'll need a solid plan with proven steps to follow to ensure you don't blow your one-time opportunity.
