So,Stop Whining and Get Busy: 3 Critical Steps to Learn How to Bring Ex Back Articles you got dumped and your world is crashing around you.  Are you done getting drunk and calling your ex girlfriend dirty names with your friends?  Are you ready to take some positive action and take back your relationship?  Read on for 3 proactive steps on how to bring ex back, and then get busy!

Step 1: Wake Up and Decide You Are Going To Take Action

Guys, lets take this as a wake up call.  I've been where you are.  I spent many hours whining and moaning (usually with lots of cursing) to my friends every time a relationship of mine ended.   It wasn't until a friend of mine was man enough to get in my face and tell me the hard truth that I finally got busy and learned how to bring ex back. 

The longer you take feeling sorry for yourself the less likely it is you will get your girl back.  Just because she dumped you doesn't mean you can't bring her back into your life; if you really want to.  She saw something in you at some point so there is an excellent chance you can remind her of that and mend your relationship.

Step 2:  Figure Out What Went Wrong

We live in a cause and effect world, so everything happens for a reason.  You broke up because something in your relationship was not meeting your girl's needs.  You need to figure out what those needs were and, if it is in your power, take steps to meet them.  

Sometimes, what went wrong was a single event.  I know you have been reliving the weeks and months leading up to the break up in your mind every day since she left.  Instead of looking back at those events with longing and pity try to pinpoint a time (or, more likely, times) when you let her down, didn't pay enough attention to her, or just plain screwed up.  Unless you messed up big-time, or your ex is a very unreasonable person, you will most likely see a pattern of neglect or bad behavior.  Most women will not end a relationship over one event; it usually takes a lot of things to cause them to send you packing.  

Once you do this self-reflection and figure out what went wrong, do not fall into another trap of self-pity.  Almost all relationships can be recovered with determination and a plan.   You can learn how to bring ex back.

Step 3:Put Yourself in Her Shoes

This one kind of goes along with Step 2. Once you think have figured out what caused the relationship to end, try to look at the relationship from her perspective. This will serve two purposes. One, it will help you to figure out how to fix it. After all you are trying to bring her back into your life, what better way than to imagine from her point of view what it would take to make that happen. Second, if you can get yourself into the habit of looking at things from her perspective, your relationship will be much more likely to succeed when you do get back together. So, take a little while and brainstorm and imagine yourself as your ex. What gesture or, series of actions, would it take before you would take the guy you just kicked to the curb back? You might be surprised at what you come up with!
