When someone has been hurt in a relationship that is now breaking up, it is hard to find the right way to mend that relationship and get your ex back.  But you can’t stall too long and simply wait to see what happens.  To move forward, someone in the relationship is going to have to offer up forgiveness in order to mend things.  Being able to forgive is one of the essential ways to win your ex back.

You can’t be afraid of being humiliated if you want to learn how to get your ex back. Both partners will most likely have to learn about humiliation.  Selfishness has little room in a good relationship so you will have to un-learn that first.  One, or both, of you may have been more concerned with the individual person instead of the couple as a whole.  That will have to change.

It is common for people to make mistakes in a relationship.  Some mistakes are harder to overcome because they are more devastating.  But the majority of mistakes are actually trivial.  Many times a mistake is made in the heat of the moment and gets blown out of proportion.  During a fight or under stress it is possible that one partner was not thinking well, and did something they really wouldn’t normally do, or even did something by accident.

You can learn how to get your ex back if you can better examine the mistakes your partner may have made.  If you feel your partner did something wrong to you, try to think of the circumstances surrounding that person when they made their choices.  Were they under more stress than normal?  Was there something happening in both of your lives that caused strain?  Notice the context under which mistakes were made before you fully judge the mistakes.

Maybe you had your feelings or pride hurt by your partner and that is what you are struggling with.  Can you find it in yourself to forgive him or her?  You may have to try to see the good in your relationship as a whole and forget your own pride.  Are you willing to do that?  The overall relationship is what you may need to look at.  Being able to ignore your own pride on occasion is a good thing to learn in order to win your ex back.  It is one of the best secrets we can give you.

The reverse is also true.  If you were the one who hurt your partner you will need to take back your own pride.  You need to admit to yourself that you made a mistake.  Take responsibility for your own actions and you will have a better chance to get your ex back.  There will be errors in any relationship that you will have to take the initiative to correct on your own as you learn to ignore your own ego. If you keep making the same mistake over and over than you may want to seek counseling.  The problem may never go away otherwise.

The main lesson to learn is that neither you nor your partner is too good to say “I’m sorry.”  You have to be able to approach each other with humility so you can apologize and work things out.  You should not try to hold yourself up as being better than your partner.  If your partner does apologize, accept it with gratitude and don’t make them feel they “should be sorry.”  Look at what you have as a couple instead of what each of you has as an individual.  It is corny to say, but you should work as a team.   Learning these simple lessons is how you can get your ex back and keep them.
