Does my ex want me back? - Real questions with real answers

Here is an excerpt from a new article on HelpGettingBackTogether.com:

"I think this behavior in an ex girlfriend qualifies as a sign she wants you back. I think you're seeing her playing hard to get, and acting like she doesn't care.

Both of those behaviors are ones you see recommended for people who want to get back together with their ex. Since you're seeing it in her, some friend or website probably recommended it to her. Or maybe she even thought it up herself."

Did you cheat? - 3 things to do to get your ex back

Read this excerpt from the latest topic on HelpGettingBackTogether.com:

The way I think of it, there are two flavors of cheating.

The first kind is where you cheated briefly in a one night stand, or just slept with someone not important to you a few times.

The second kind is where you had a longer-lasting affair with someone you cared about and connected with emotionally.

Before you get your ex boyfriend back, accept his fear of commitment

There's another new article on HelpGettingBackTogether.com. Here is an excerpt:

Notice how there are so many tv shows these days, about "man space" or "man caves"? Notice how, on real estate shows, guys are always trying to find a house with a room that will be theirs alone, away from the family?

Good or bad, it's become accepted that men need to have a place to escape. If you and your ex shared a small living space where you were always within earshot of each other, and he never had many opportunities to be home alone, this was part of why he broke up with you.

I want my ex back but she has a boyfriend - Use the watchful waiting policy

Here is an excerpt from a new article on HelpGettingBackTogether.com:

Usually, this phrase comes up when people are talking about the early stages of a serious illness, such as cancer -- or matters of foreign policy, such when dealing with a foreign country with the potential to become an enemy.

But I think it also works as a good technique for anyone who needs to wait out an ex who is seeing someone else. Watchful waiting is a good state of mind to get yourself into.

The foreign policy scenario makes a better analogy than the illness one, because you can view your ex girlfriend as your opponent. I don't mean opponent like in "enemy" -- I only mean that your ex girlfriend is the person opposite you, that you want to get back.

Is it easier to get your girlfriend back than to find someone new?

Here is an excerpt from a new article:

I can tell that being in a relationship was a large source of David's self-esteem. Secretly, he was proud of being a "regular guy" who had a girlfriend. It made him feel like a man.

Now, he thinks his male friends see him as a failure for getting dumped. He feels embarrassed about it.

He wants to get back the security and status of being in a relationship — but to him, getting back a woman he has already been intimate with seems a whole lot easier than trying to meet new women, and get close to one of them.

Get Your Ex Girlfriend Back - Do You Know the 4 Tricky Methods?

How do you know if your ex wants you back?

New excerpt from HelpGettingBackTogether.com:

"Worst case, your ex is only messing with your head. If your ex is just playing mind games to get your attention, then the behavior you are observing isn't a sign your ex wants you back. It could be mean-spirited or vengeful. Or, if your ex hasn't found someone new yet, you could just be seeing boredom, or a desire to get you back into bed. You can't necessarily call that mean, but it's not in your best interests to allow yourself to be used in that way."
