Here’s What To Do When Your Girlfriend Breaks Up With You

Guys, you have three options when your girlfriend breaks up with you: get her back, move on, make her jealous – okay, so you really have two options. Making her jealous is an immature and shitty way to try and get her back. Pick which one you want to do yet? Here’s what to do when your girlfriend breaks up with you.

What To Do When Your Girlfriend Breaks Up With You

If you want to get back with your ex, here are a few things you should avoid: asking why she ended the relationship, apologizing, begging her to be with you, texting and trying to be her friend. Give her time to figure out why she terminated the relationship if it was an abrupt break up. As for apologizing, if you genuinely feel you did nothing wrong, don’t apologize. This gives women a chance to think of reasons why they should be upset with you. Don’t bombard her with text messages – nothing good ever comes out of attempting to have serious discussions over text message. Although easy and tempting, avoid it.

The most important tip of what to do when your girlfriend breaks up with you is this…

Do not promise you can change

While this might be true, you haven’t figured out what it is that needs to change in the relationship. Generally women take a guy back if he promises to change, but let’s be real; it requires a lot of time and effort. In many instances, you’re changing who you are and it’s more than likely something that will be temporary. There will come a point in a woman’s life where she realizes she wants a man who is ready-made, not still discovering who they are. You don’t want to promise you can change because chances are, she won’t believe you. You’re just getting yourself into a situation where it’ll appear to be an empty promise.

If you want to be with her make her feel as though she is in control – works every time. Another tip is allow her to help you reach your true potential as a man – if you are ready to commit, commit. One of the most important things you need to do is let her know you appreciate her for who she is. Don’t try and change a woman or get her to be more of what you’d like. Finally, make sure she knows you’re proud to call her your girlfriend. Here’s what to do when your girlfriend breaks up with you and you want to move on.

If you want to move on without her, it’s crucial you learn from the experience. You should avoid contact with her temporarily until you figure yourself out. It’s always tempting to hang around an ex and avoid severing ties. Focus on yourself but don’t be a complete ass. Don’t be petty and try and get back at her. The best revenge is happiness – there’s no need to rub it in her face. She most likely will come crawling back if you are mature and don’t try and piss her off.
