There are so many mistakes people make when trying to get over a breakup. In this post I’ll explain what those mistakes are, how you can avoid them, and ultimately how to use the breakup as an opportunity to bring your life to a level that was much higher than it was previous to the relationship.

The first mistake you should avoid is trying to bump into your ex whenever and wherever you can. I see so many people that recently broke up from relationship and want to see and contact their ex as much as they can. They don’t want to be completely obvious about it by texting and calling the phone all the time, but they want to be subtle and bump into them  wherever they can. This means going to the coffee shop they know the ex goes to all the time on certain times and days of the week. This means going to parties and bars knowing very well that their ex will be there with their friends. You probably know your ex’s routine pretty darn well so you might have a list of different spots where you could see and talk to men.

This could quite possibly be one of the worst mistakes you can make. When you break up from the relationship, you and your ex need to break up fully. If they broke up with you, respect their decision and move on. Doing things like this not only is obvious that you still want them, but is extremely ineffective as a way to get them back.

Another breakup mistake I see lots of people making is trying to convince their exes family and friends to convince your ex to come back to you. Your partner probably made his decision on their own and had little influence from their family or friends. So not only will this not work, it will make you seem a bit crazy by going behind your ex’s back to talk to his people. So again, just like the previous mistake this is extremely ineffective and can even make your situation worse.

A third mistake I see lots of people making is trying to win their ex back through flowers and gifts. One thing you need to understand is that flowers and gifts will only strengthen your ex’s decision to break up with you. It will tell them exactly how much you miss and want them in your life again and this is simply not attractive.

Have you ever heard of the saying “the hungry dog doesn’t get fed?” This simply means  people who are needy and are blatantly obvious that they want someone, typically won’t attract the person that they are after. It’s only by being a bit aloof where people become attracted to one another. When you give your ex flowers and gifts this is the exact opposite of this and again, can put you in the even worse situation.

In this article I give you a few tips on how to avoid the most popular breakup mistakes. Be sure to avoid them at all costs and just worry about improving life independent of your ex. Do be surprised with the type of stride he can make if you just invest in yourself more and less on your past relationship.
