How Do You Get Your Ex Back? Use This Surprisingly Simple Technique

By: TimArends

Do you want to know the surprising -- perhaps even shocking -- secret of getting your ex back?

Give him or her some breathing space.

Have you been suffocating? Perhaps you call your ex too often. Perhaps you just "accidentally" try to be in the same places that you know your ex frequents. Big mistake! You need to give your ex some breathing room, not only to avoid suffocating him or her, but to use the magic power of reverse psychology!

What is reverse psychology? It is acting as if you want the exact opposite of what you really want!

How could this possibly work to win your ex back? Well you see, people are contrary critters. If they think you want something too much, they will refuse to let you have it! It's just a peculiar quirk of human nature.

As author Vernon Howard once wrote, when someone knows that you desperately want something, they tend to withhold it. Doing so gives them a tremendous sense of power over you!

In your case, you want your ex to come crawling back to you. You want him or her to be desperate to have you back.

How does the principle of reverse psychology work here?

You want your ex to feel that you no longer desperately need him or her. You are so popular that you have perhaps even forgotten about him or her!

To do this, you must get out and socialize more. Meet new people, make new friends.

Doing so will require that you overcome some shyness, of course. Perhaps You and your ex have been together for so long that your social skills have become a little rusty.

Shyness is not uncommon. In fact, according to surveys by shyness researcher Dr. Philip G Zimbardo, over 80% of all the population say they have been shy at some point in their lives and 40% consider themselves currently shy! Perhaps you're one of them.

When Michael Morgenstern, author of “How to Make Love to a Woman,” asked women what they find most sexy in men, the answer was almost always the same: self-assurance. Not good looks, not muscles, not a macho attitude. Just self-confidence.

And if you ask 100 men what they find most sexy, 99% of them will say "self-confidence" too!

Always, always make good eye contact. Women may feel that making eye contact with someone they don't know is brazen, while a man often feels that the woman who looks his way and holds the look is making contact very seductively!

But the most important skill to get back out into the social scene is to brush up on your conversational ability. You need to be totally self-confident about your ability to make fluent and easy conversation with new people.

When you're in a social situation, don't talk about yourself. Talk about a picture on the wall or about the cologne or perfume the other person is wearing.

You need to give your ex some breathing room, not only to avoid suffocating him or her, but to use the magic power of reverse psychology!
