Life is not fair.
At times you know that you have met "the one" only after they have dumped you.
Intense sadness and pain are what follow this realization and moving on in life becomes an impossible thought.
If you are struck by this reality you need to get your ex back.
But if your ex has left you then they don't want to reverse the break up.
You will have to find out a way of making your ex desire you and want you.
And its one simple step that you can take to make this all a reality.
Create the need You have to make your ex realize in as many different ways as why he/she should take you back.
All this, unfortunately, cannot be done directly.
A great deal of tact and cunning has to be employed to make your ex feel favorably towards you.
Since your ex did fall in love with you, you have to remember that all you need to do is remind your ex of those things not by words but through your actions.
Go out and don't stop living even for a moment.
Why would your ex care after dumping you? Pity is a pathetic emotion that people use to manipulate others.
So, don't try to manipulate your ex.
You can create need for you in your ex by simply freeing him/her of the guilt of dumping you.
Make your ex see that now you are moving on in life and will meet new people.
Go out and have a great time with your friends.
Avoid your ex as much as possible and make him/her want to come and enquire of you and talk to you.
Make your ex feel nice by not laying the guilt on him/her.
Take responsibility of your actions and intimate your ex of having done so.
This will warm him/her up to you almost immediately.
And when your ex sees you as a mature person who is in peace with the situation, no matter how negative, he/she will begin to respect you.
Earning your ex's respect is one of the hardest things that you will have to do.
If you are able to create the need and make your ex come and talk to you instead of being the person going and talking, then its half the battle won! Once your ex feels your need then reconciliation is only a step away!
