After having gone through a break up with your boyfriend or girlfriend, you may be faced with the dilemma of "should I try to get them back?" This happens a lot to people after a break up, and they can be torn between the two decisions. The reason you would want to get back with your ex needs to be for a very legitimate reason, other wise your relationship will fail again.
Will you be truly happy if you get back together with your ex? Did the two of you fight a lot or was this break up situation a one of a kind thing for you? If you fought a lot you may not thinking of the bad times, maybe your thinking is clouded with emotional pain due to the break up. If the two of you got along great up to this point then there should be no reason not to try and reunite.
If your thinking is clouded like mentioned above then you must take some time off to get yourself together. If you try to get your ex back in this condition you will make a mess of things. Taking the time to get past this will also give you time to think about the good and bad times you had together and make a good decision about what you want to do.
During this time do not contact your ex by phone, text message, email or any other method. You may be inclined to chase after them begging for them to come back to you. Do not do this because you will take on the look of a stalker and your ex will keep at distance from you.
