If you acted on impulse, cheated on your ex, and got dumped for it, you probably regret being unfaithful and hurting your ex. You wish you could go back in time and avoid cheating. Well, you can’t change the past or pretend it didn’t happen, but you can focus on the present and future and […]
Men are known for being more rational than women, but that doesn’t make the reconciliation process any easier. When people develop negative associations toward their ex, lose feelings, and decide to leave, they can’t be talked back into a relationship. Talking tends to suffocate, overwhelm, and annoy them and cause them to stay guarded. They
Not all men beg their ex for forgiveness and another chance. Many men know their worth because they’ve been through a difficult breakup before or did the self-work, so they simply walk away and never look back. They understand that begging is self-degrading and that couples should work on issues while they’re together. When they
If your ex is lying to you or others about why you broke up, it’s clear your ex has a negative opinion about you and wants to justify his or her decisions and actions. By making you look like a bad person, your ex expects people to take his or her side and continue to
If you keep going back to an ex you perceive as toxic, there’s a perfectly good explanation for it. Your connection or attachment with your ex is so strong that you can’t permanently separate yourself from your ex and leave your ex behind.

Dumpers often come back after you move on and forget about them. It’s as if they can feel that you stopped caring and obsessing about them—and no longer want them in your life. The reason they come back, however, doesn’t have anything to do with how you feel. It’s got everything to do with what
Talking to an ex you have feelings for and want back isn’t rocket science, but it does require certain breakup knowledge. It requires you to treat your ex as someone you broke up with rather than someone you still feel close to and want a romantic connection with. If or when you interact with your
Missing your ex after a breakup is completely normal. Whether you saw the breakup coming or had no clue your ex wanted to leave you, the emotional and physical separation can feel overwhelming. It can remind you that you lost an amazing person you invested a big part of yourself in and that things will
Although every breakup situation is different, most breakups still require dumpees to go no contact with their ex. They require dumpees to give the dumper some space and focus on themselves. That’s how they can learn to accept the breakup, show respect, display healthy self-esteem, and avoid pressuring the dumper. If the dumpee doesn’t go
It’s normal to think your ex will come back. The breakup shocked you and hurt your self-esteem, so it’s too early to accept the possibility that your ex is serious about the breakup and might not come back. It’s easier to hold on to hope because hope gives you the strength to deal with pain,
Many believe that female dumpers always come back, while others argue that once a woman makes up her mind, she moves on for good. In their mind, she sets her eyes on something or someone else and sees no reason to return. The best answer I found is that it depends on each dumper. Some
If your boyfriend blocked you due to anger rather than resentment, he could miss you and unblock you when he reflects on his actions and realizes he still has romantic feelings for you.
