There are many methods that can be very effective in many 'lost boyfriend' cases.
It all depends on the kind of relationship you had and the type of the individual you were involved with.
By slightly adapting what your friends have applied along the years, you can achieve your goal too.
But, whatever it takes, do not stalk him.
Chasing the guy is one of the worst mistakes a woman can make after being left by her boyfriend.
If men do not like to be controlled during the relationship, you can bet they have no wish to feel that afterwards.
Texts, phone calls and stalking must not be part of your plan; otherwise you will ruin even the feeblest chance to get your man back.
Instead of showing up exactly where he happens to be, you had better wait and make him come to you.
First, concentrate on you.
Try becoming a more positive person by chasing away all your negative feelings.
How? Start writing a letter to your boyfriend in which you talk about the good times you had together and your feelings, good and bad, whatever you wish you had told him earlier, etc.
Writing this letter will make you feel a lot better, I'm sure.
However, you must never send it, but burn it immediately.
As soon as the letter has been burnt, the negativity in your life will start fading away.
Concerning your past relationship that you want to bring back into present, you can do something to keep it on the positive side.
Think of what made it strong and the good moments it brought.
If by any chance you get to talk to your ex, don't forget to remind him of what was special about it.
Never bring into discussion the negative experiences which might make the two of you argue again.
Focus on your strengths and improve yourself as much as you can.
If, for instance, he used to praise you for you cooking skills, it is time you started taking cooking lessons and become a kitchen 'artist'.
No matter what flaws you may have had, try eliminating them and becoming a better person.
Make yourself available, whether for him or anyone else asking you out.
Visit your friends and keep an open house.
Time will pass in a more pleasant manner and you will only prove you do live your life.
If you can show how strong you are now and your ex notices it, you can bet he will come back to you in no time.
He will surely notice how desirable you have become and do everything to get you back.
