Online Dating and How do You Mend a Broken Heart?
December 12, 2009 by admin
To mend a broken heart is not as easy in practice as it is in theory, and I am certain that you are feeling the same as you read this, so I will stress that you should take this one step at a time.
Let me assume that you have just broken up with your partner, and you are understandably devastated. Well, I will ask you this, do you want your partner back?
For the purpose of this article I will assume that the answer is a resounding “Yes” and I will point out how you should take this ‘one step at a time’ rather than confuse the issue by witing about two entirely different topics. If you are contemplating getting your partner back, the first things you need to consider are:
1. Stop Trying!
2. Stop sending texts to him or her
3. Stop leaving “Ineed you” messages
4. Stop ‘accidently’ bumping in to him or her
5. Stop being demanding
Stop and think about those things for a moment and how you would feel if you were the one that had called the relationship off and how it would impact on you.
Possibly the best thing you could do is get out an old fashioned pen and paper, take a bit of time to write a thoughtful letter and even agree that the separation was for the best. This will show that you are not trying to be argumentative, but rather, you are trying to be positive in a negative situation and be philisophical about the separation. Show your ex partner that you are not looking for an argument or fight, but you are trying to make ammends for a soured relationship.
Show your ex partner that you really care and would like to give them a bit of time to think everything over and possibly open a new dialogue in the future.
As hard as it may feel at the time, always try to keep a positive attitude, remember the good times you had, but don’t dwell on them. It’s not as hard as you would think to mend a broken heart, just try hard to remain positive, forget about being bitter, that only breeds negativity and unhappiness. If friends offer support or advice, welcome it with open arms and take heed in what they have to say, most often the advice from a friend who’s ‘sitting on the fence’ can be the best advice you will ever get.
