How To Contact Your Ex After A Break Up

If you want to get your ex back you will need to contact them to discuss the relationship and this isn’t always easy because it can feel very awkward. If you contact your ex and get thing wrong it can put you in a worse position so it’s important to get it right. Approaching your ex in a subtle manner is the right way to do it. To begin with give them space and leave it a few weeks before contacting them.

This will hopefully be enough time for any ghosts and animosity between the two of you to pass over. A simple email or text message is enough when the time comes to contact them, you don’t want to over do it. I think a text message would be better because emails can be easily missed. Most people check their phone much more often that their emails and this is why a text message is better.

Keep the message simple, just ask them how they are. If they reply then great, just see how things go and then eventually ask them if they would like to meet up for a catch up chat. If they don’t respond to your message then wait a day or two before sending another. The reason you need to leave it a few days is because you will just look desperate if you send too many messages too soon.

A lot of people will send a text message to their ex and if they don’t get an answer within the first hour send more messages. If your ex comes back to their phone and finds one message from you it’s enough to tell them that you’re still interested. If on the other hand they find countless messages from you they will get the impression that you’re desperate.

If a week goes by and you still hear nothing then the best course of action would be to call your ex. This should be the final attempt at getting in touch with them. If you still can’t get hold of them it’s time to accept that it’s over and move on. there’s no point in putting yourself through the pain of continually contacting your ex, it would be better to just accept that it’s over.
