- Take time before you contact him: You hurt him, and you need to allow him to work through his feelings. You need to wait up to three weeks before you contact him unless he contacts you first. You can even wait and let him come back to you.
- Doing a no contact means that you don’t call, text, look at his social media or have any kind of contact with him at all.
- Find out how he is feeling: If you haven’t heard from him for three weeks then you can contact him. Find out if he is upset with you by texting him. If he is upset, he might not respond but if he is friendly, talk to him. Share a positive memory about your relationship and try to talk to him in a peaceful and happy way.
- Have a face-to-face meeting with him: Once you talk to him and he is friendly, suggest that you meet up for lunch. Make sure that this is casual, and you don’t put pressure on things. You need to not bring up the past and just keep the energy positive.
- Start building trust again: You can start building trust with him by texting him. Be patient because this takes time. He will need to build trust and so will you. He will be less secure than he was before and so you really have to be open with communication. Communicating with him will either bring you together or show you that you need to move on.
- Start new routines: As you begin to spend more time together, don’t go back to things of the past. Start doing new things together and create new memories.
- Talk about it: You need to talk about what you can do to make this round better. Figure out how you can connect better and how you can solve past issues.
- Celebrate each other: Once you reconnect, celebrate this. This is a powerful thing and can be a second chance. Know that you have differences and be humble. Show each other that you value one another and that you care about each other. Talk about things that are important to you.
Will He Come Back?
