How To Get Back Your Ex - Look At Your Situation Objectively
"When trying to work out how to get back your ex, one thing that's essential is to be able to look at your situation objectively"
Looking at your situation objectively is essential, not only in relationships, but in all aspects of life. Unfortunately, it's not always that easy to do... especially when dealing with relationships, because your emotions will be running very high.
However, it is possible and in this article, I'll give you some great techniques to help you not only get back your ex, but also to look at other aspects of your life more objectively as well.
You may find one of these methods works better for you than others, and that's fine. What I strongly recommend, however, is to use all of them. By doing that, you'll be looking at your situation from every angle possible and that alone will give you maximum objectivity!
OK, let's get going...
A good place to start is to ask a close friend what they think. I don't often look to others for advice, because they will look at the situation from their viewpoint and not yours, but it can be useful to at least hear what others think.
A word of warning here though... if your friend is also a friend of your ex, which is very likely, they may find it difficult to be objective, so you may not be able to consider this method.
The next thing I do, is look at the situation from a different angle and replace myself with a friend. I then write down the advice I'd give them... if they asked for it, of course! By doing this, you're not so much looking at yourself, but at the situation and that allows you to be more objective about it.
A quick note here... writing things down is a great help when resolving problems, because it forces you to think more about the situation and it prevents you going over the same scenario time and time again. So work with a pen and paper... always!
OK, the next step is to write down the sort of questions you'd ask your best friend, if they were in your situation. Don't think about your issues here, just list the questions. Then write a list of questions you'd ask their partner.
Now, ask yourself the questions and write down your answers.
Once you've done that, look at the second set of questions and write down the answers your think your ex / partner would give.
At this point you'll need to put yourself in your ex's position. Write down, what you think they'd answer, not what you'd like them to answer, or what you think they should answer! You must write down what you think they would answer!
Another great technique is to view your situation as a movie. Before you start shouting at your monitor telling me I'm crazy, this is a technique that's been used through the ages by many civilizations and one which can have great results!
To do this, find some space and sit or lie quietly. You could do this as you lie in bed at night, but I prefer to be more alert. So... find a quiet place where you won't be disturbed and sit or lie with your eyes closed.
Take four or five deep breaths to relax yourself.
Now visualise your current situation as clearly as you can. Where are you? what can your see? What can you hear? What can you smell? How do you feel? Be as specific as you can.
Now, I want you to take yourself out of your body... but leave yourself in the scene... as if you're watching a movie. Take a look at how you're behaving. are you being reasonable? Are you being loving and caring? Are you desirable?
Keep looking and keep asking questions.
Then consider your ex's behaviours. Ask the same questions you asked about yourself.
What does the relationship look like? Can it be saved? Is it worth saving?
Again, keep asking questions, but look from the outside... take out your own emotions... what advice would you give the person playing you in the film?
With practice you can become really good at this technique and the rewards are fantastic, so keep at it.
If none of this works for you or you feel that you'd like faster results, I'd highly recommend seeking the services of a life coach. A good coach will ask you the questions that'll help you make the correct decisions for you in your situation. Because your coach is detached from your personal life, they won't be influenced by emotions or links to your ex, putting them in the best possible position to help objectively.
