I have been searching online to figure out how to get an ex back that broke up because of space. They have all said the same thing ignore him and he will come back to you. I was wondering if anyone knows this to be true and if anyone went through a similar situation and how they got their ex back? Thanks;)

NO, no contact is not a way to get your ex back it's a form of healing your wounds, to make u a better person before and after all of this.
If your ex comes back that's just a plus

I'm not entirely sure, and I'm pretty new here... but I would feel confident saying there's nothing YOU can do to bring someone else back. You can't make someone do something they don't truly want in their hearts. No Contact will help you get over them and them over you, but it won't make them want you back (at least not for the right reasons). If you cut them out of your life and they suddenly come back in a panic saying they want you back, I feel like they only want you back because of what you gave them... a sense of security... not for who you are as a person. They need time to themselves to readjust to being single and then maybe they'll realize they you were the right one after all... but only they can realize that on their own.

Just stay good friends with him! If it turns out he wants you back then he will ask you out. But JUST be a friend. Don't seem over eger or make it blantly obvious you want him back. And since he broke up with you cause he wanted space try and keep it to emailing and texting, stuff like that, if you guys decide to hang out then do so, but if he wants to date again then you will. Just go with the flow ^.^

Why is he your "ex"? Why did the two of you break up?

I would disagree, from my experience being a friend with emotional attachment will only get you hurt
No contact is best

I just say stay incontact in case something is still there. Now if you broke up on bad terms and you are really really hurt then don't go around them! For instance... if I went around my most recent ex (a guy who broke up with me last year) I'd kill him -.-. I saw him walking down the street the other day and he flipped me off (guess he finally hates me as much as I hate him). You would not believe just how hard it was to resist the temptation to "accidently" drive off onto the sidewalk and run his over -.-. I have another ex that just really hurt me emotionally and every time I see him I feel like crying! But then there's this one guy I still kind of like, he broke up with me but we are good friends still.

It all depends on the break up on if you should be in contact. Really bad terms? DON'T!! If you are really sad over it? WAIT TILL YOU FEEL BETTER TO TALK TO THEM! If you still kind of like him, you broke up on pretty good terms, and he's not an to you... then talk to him and be friends.

I just assumed the friends one in my first post cause nixsa didn't seem like she was really sad or mad :P but which ever one works for her. She hasn't exactly said what happened between her and her boyfriend so we can only give so much advice.

BTW what did happen?

Hey thanks for all the questions... he broke up with me because he said that he wasn't getting enough space. I don't get it because he told me that I am the best girlfriend that he has ever had and that he never had a girl treat him so good. He lost his job five months into our relationship and I helped him out for three months until he found another job. For our one year anniversary I surprised him with a PS3. He told me that he has never felt the way he feels about me about another girl. We had such a good relationship. At least I thought so until he hit me with the bomb. I have tried to work through this with him. At first he said that he needed time, then he told me we would take it one day at a time, then he told me that he dosen't want to be in a relationship right now, I haven't heard from him in two days wich is really weird. This just hurts so bad because I love him so much and I know he loves me but he is being so darn stuborn! UGH TAURUS!!

I also found out that he went through my cellphone a few weeks prior to our breaking up and found text messages that I sent to friends and my sister when I was mad at him. True, they weren't very nice but I was mad.

I don't know what to do... this is all I think about... I just want us to be back the way we were.

First of all... it is not fair to you to try and make someone love you again. If they don't realize that you're amazing then "bye"...
There is a good quote I recently heard, "If he is dumb enough to walk away..then be smart enough to let him go."

I know that is easier said then done... but it's so true.

Back to your question...
It is true that absents makes the heart grow fonder... but just be yourself. Show him that you're strong and can make it w/o him... if he thinks you're needy... he will have that power over you.

Needless to say. I know what it feels like to love someone so much and want them to want them like you do. Just don't wait to long & know that regardless if he comes back to you. God has someone specially made for you.
Good luck!

Listen he broke up with you over a little little thing, I'm sure he will come back to you if you were such a good girlfriend. Again I think you should talk cause it's not like either of you were hurt and it wasn't on bad terms. Things will turn out how they turn out.

Have you tried e-mailing him?
