Why You Want Your Ex Boyfriend Back Makes A Difference
You aren’t happy with the break up and you want to get back together with your boyfriend. One quick question.
Why?
That’s a serious question. The answer will tell us a great deal about whether it really makes sense for you to make
an effort at getting him back. There are good reasons to want to revive a relationship and there are less
compelling reasons that don’t necessarily justify action. Recognizing the difference can save you countless
headaches and can put you on the right track in terms of what actions should come next.
Do you want him back because you can’t bear the idea of being single. If it’s all about having a boyfriend, you
probably don’t need to try to get him back. That isn’t a good enough reason. It’s okay to want a man in your life,
but wanting someone isn’t the same thing as wanting your ex boyfriend specifically. There’s no reason to deal with
the complications of making up with someone if you’d be equally (if not more) satisfied with someone else.
Besides, going after your ex when you don’t necessarily feel that strongly about him isn’t very fair to either of
you. It creates a situation in which you and he might both miss out on the opportunity to build a more significant
and meaningful situation.
Do you want him back to vindicate yourself or to prove a point? If that’s your motive, please reconsider making a
move to get him back in your life. Despite anything that might have happened, your ex boyfriend is a human being
with a real heart and he deserves better than to be reduced to some kind of game piece in a selfish contest.
Likewise, you deserve better from and for yourself than to waste your precious energies on a mere game.
Do you want him back because you love him? Do you want him back because you miss everything about him? Do you want
him back because you can feel, deep deep down inside that you had something special? Is your heart begging you to
get back together with him because it is the right thing to do?
Now we’re talking! That is the kind of reason we’ve been looking for. If that’s a fair summary of how you feel
about your ex boyfriend, you really should take immediate action to get him back into your life. Those special
connections are meaningful. Love is miraculous. When we find it, we need to do everything in our power to preserve
and nurture it. That’s what life is all about.
You want him back, but why? Ask yourself that question and answer it honestly. After you have a good idea of your
true motives, make a decision.
