Win Back Your Love - Bad Advice to Avoid (And How to Use it to Win Back Lost Love)

Do you need some advice on how to win back your love? Here's the first thing I would say...learn to recognize the bad advice. Sometimes this is easier said than done, so maybe this article will help you weed through some of the junk out there, and get to the business of actually helping you win back your love.

Bad Advice Number 1 - Date Their Friends

You'd be surprised how many people will tell you that if you want to win back your love, you have to make them jealous by dating their friends. They will tell you to intentionally flirt with other people in front of your ex, or tease your ex by asking them where to take your next date. Honestly, this is just stupid.

The only exception here is if you legitimately have feelings for one of your ex's friends. But even then, have tact and don't rub it in your ex's face. Otherwise, avoid this bad advice like the plague.

Even if this did work in getting back together because your ex was jealous, do you really want jealously to be the foundation of your relationship. This is not how to win back lost love.

Bad Advice Number 2 - Stalk them

Now, not very many people will actually use these words, but this is exactly what happens. You break up with someone, so what do you do? Text them. Call them. Send gifts. Stop by their house, or work, or wherever you can find them. Do whatever you have to do to talk them into getting back together. This will definitely not help you win back your love; in fact, it will only push them away.

It makes sense that you would want to talk with your ex, but something important to remember...you must give them "breathing room". When you pressure them, they will run away. When you give them their space, while keeping the lines of communication open, you will have a much greater chance to win back your love.

Bad Advice Number 3 - Ignore Them

This is the opposite of "Stalk Them", but should be avoided just the same. It goes something like this. Your ex dumped you, so you should ignore them and somehow make them think you think you're better off without them. If you go to a party, don't talk to them. If they try and call, don't answer. Look the other way, and pretend they're not even there. This is another stupid piece of advice, and only leads to a dysfunctional relationship that is better off left dead.

Don't ignore them. Be friendly. Be calm. Be rational. But don't let them take advantage you. If they "just want to be friends" and yet still want to talk on the phone every day, this may prove to be too painful for you, since you still have feelings for them. In this case, be honest and set some boundaries. Even still, ignoring them is not the way to win back your love.

Needless to say, there is a lot of bad advice out there, that if you follow, will ruin your chances of getting back together. Follow this bad advice and you will never win back your love. But you're not here for BAD advice are you? Of course not! That's why you need to keep reading for some GOOD ADVICE.
