Get Your Ex Boyfriend Back - Can You Win Him Back If You Were The One Who Broke Up With Him?

It's been said that most relationship break ups are initiated by the woman, so you are not alone if you are dealing with the after effects of having broken up with a guy you were dating. It probably was not the easiest decision that you could make, and if it is weighing heavily on you and you can't seem to stop thinking about him, then maybe you want to see if you can repair the relationship and find a way to win him back. That's going to probably also lead you to ask the question, "can you win him back if you were the one who broke up with him?"

While it would be nice if there was a straight forward answer to this question, the reality is... it all depends. Some guys will have no problems with giving things a second shot, while others will feel so hurt and badly bruised that they do not want to even think of the possibility of getting back together. You kind of have to know what situation you are in, and whether or not the guy you broke up with is willing to give things another go.

Here are some tips on what to look for to see if it is worth trying to win him back:

1. Do you still have an ongoing relationship of sorts with him or are you someone he tries to avoid?

As long as you and your ex boyfriend are still in some kind of communication, then there probably is a possibility there that you can win him back. It may not happen as suddenly as you want it to, but don't think that this is not at all probable. Having an open line of communication with your ex boyfriend shows that he does not hate you and that he probably does still think about the possibility of getting back together.

2. Did you dump him specifically for another guy and does he know this?

The male ego can be terribly fragile, and nothing seems to shake a man's ego more than getting dumped by a woman for another guy. If this is the case, then you really do have your work cut out for you. You are going to have to overcome whatever hurt he may have felt, while at the same time finding a way to kind of put his fractured ego back together.

3. Is he bad mouthing you to anyone who will listen to him?

If you know that he is talking bad about you since the break up, then you know what? You probably do not want to waste your time and energy trying to win him back. Chances are, he is feeling really hurt and there is a good chance that he will not let you back into his life. Plus, even if he does, there is a good chance that he will have a lot of issues that you will have to deal with and that may end up wearing you out.
