How on earth can you get your ex back by doing nothing? Let me explain - it's actually very easy.
Since the break up you have more than likely been calling your ex constantly to try and get him/her to take you back, and it is not working - right? Of course, it won't work! You're making a total pest of yourself that's all! Your ex is becoming really tired of your begging and pleading and quite frankly, finds it really embarrassing, so top doing it immediately! I'm sure you'll agree with me that you need to make your ex have those loving feelings for you again - not so? Well, making a pest of yourself is definitely not going to accomplish this, I promise you.
All it will do is push your ex even further away from you.
Now, if you stop contacting your ex all the time, and give him/her time to get over the break up first, then there is a good chance that you'll get your ex back.
After a few days, your ex will start thinking differently about you.
He/she won't see you as a pest anymore, because there has been no contact with you for a while.
What WILL happen though is that your ex is going to start to miss you a lot.
Your ex is going to start thinking about all the great, fun times you had together, and about how good you were together as well.
He/she is going to long to have those times back again too.
So just hold fire, and don't make anymore contact with your ex.
Sooner or later your ex will call YOU.
The first call to you will be a bit awkward at first.
He/she is actually testing the waters to see how you feel at this point in time.
As soon as your ex realizes that you still have the same feelings for him/her, then the conversation will change dramatically.
You'll get your ex back because your ex is going to suggest to you that the two of you get back together again, and soon.
