Maybe you've made an enormous mistake, or maybe you realized that the one that he made wasn't so bad after all! In any case, you've decided that one way or another, you want to get your ex-boyfriend back and you will do whatever it takes to make sure that this happens. The truth is, many people get back together with their ex, and they can live happily ever after. If you are in this situation, you will find that there are many things for you to consider, so keep the tips below in mind when making up.

1.Figure out what he's up to.

Chances are, even if you broke up, there is a good chance that you have some friends in common. Ask your friends what he is up to. Has he been talking to you? Does he talk about how much he misses you? Has he hinted that he wants to make up? You may also find that he has a new significant other, in which case, you may want to think twice. The more information that you have at your disposal, the better, so talk to any one who is currently in contact with him that doesn't mind talking to you.

2.Get yourself together!

If you have just gone through a bad break up, you may be suffering from a serious case of the blahs. If you have any intention of getting your ex boyfriend back, remember that you need to look your best, or at least as though you have things under control, so take the time to make sure that you are working out, feeding yourself right and getting out. You'll find that this is important to your self-esteem and that you can do a great deal to improve your situation this way. The chances of making up with your ex boyfriend will improve.

3.Give them a call.

"Running into them" makes them feel stalked, while using email can be an invitation to be brushed off. Give them a call and speak to them personally to arrange a meeting. You'll find that this is a great way to test out the ground. Ask them honestly that you would like to talk to them and stress how important it is to you. Don't tip your hand while you're on the phone, but don't pretend that it's just an opportunity to chat.

4.Be honest.

When they meet with you, let them know up front what can change, what can't, and what you want. This can be the first step towards getting you back together or breaking you up permanently, and you will find it is quite important. Be honest and expect the same for them. Put this in their court, because, well, it is.

5.Accept a no graciously.

If the worse happens and they say no, accept it. If they say no, there is no way that you are getting the relationship back in a healthy way, so let it go. Who knows if that might change in the future? Keep in mind, though, that if you pitch a fit, that what was a tentative no will quickly become a hard no!

Getting an ex-boyfriend back can be done, if done the right way and making up will be accomplished!
