Help

We both have insecurities and trust issues due to past relationships... So, there's the back and forth accusations, yelling, name calling, etc. We are both extremely jealous and have no communication skills. We love each other but sometimes Love isn't enough to make someone understand that you aren't going to hurt them. How can we help each other overcome these issues?

How to Get Back With Your Ex

Do’s

1. Build effective communication:

After a breakup, you probably haven't spoken to your ex in a while. Therefore, there could be misunderstandings between you both. It's essential to learn how to communicate with each other so that you can both be happier.

2. Arrange meetings:

Start meeting up with your ex again. Plan dates, go out and have fun. You can discuss the next steps moving forward, but it's important to reconnect.

3. Surprise your ex:

Why not surprise your ex with unexpected visits, gifts, etc. This will bring the spark back into your relationship.

4. Focus on common hobbies:

Try and find things that you both enjoy doing together. If there were activities you both enjoyed while you were together, continue to do them.

5. Remind your ex that you love them:

Your ex might be feeling as though you don't love them anymore. Reassure and prove your love and vice versa.

6. Work on your relationship:

Maintaining a healthy relationship is difficult. So, you both have to put in effort after you get back together to make it work and strengthen your bond.

Dont’s

1. Avoid calling or texting all the time:

Be patient with getting back with your ex. Don't call or text all day long, this might lead to them feeling frustrated or annoyed. Take it slow.

2. Avoid mind games:

Don't play mind games with your ex if you want to get back together. Avoid making them feel jealous or anything else that could worsen your problems.

3. Avoid being suspicious:

This will only make it more difficult for your ex to trust you. Don't make it seem as though you're dating someone else or anything else that will lead your ex to be suspicious.

4. Avoid negativity:

It's time to think positively. Shift away from a negative mindset and focus on making your relationship work.

5. Don’t give up:

After a breakup, it might seem as though all hope is lost. However, if you love your ex and you want to build a successful and healthy relationship, then don't give up.
