Getting Back With Your Ex Boyfriend - The Answer Lies in Text Messaging

Text messaging can be a double-edged sword. It could be the answer to reconnecting and getting back with your ex boyfriend or it could also be a deterrent and send your ex farther than when it began. Therefore, caution should always be exercised when using SMS in attempting to revive the relationship.

Don't get too excited though, there are 3 questions you will need to think about before getting back with your ex by pressing "Send".

1st Question:

"What are the reasons I want to get back together with this person?"

Before you pick up your phone and type away your SMS, give this some thought. There are a myriad of reasons why people want to get back in a relationship that's already ended. It could be as simple as missing the company of the person, longing for the affection that isn't there anymore, or genuinely loving the person enough to want them to return to your life.

Sometimes, though, some of the reasons are quite shallow. If you're thinking that not being in a relationship makes you a "lesser" person, and if you're using that same reasoning to justify getting back with your ex boyfriend, then stop and think for a second! A relationship that's ended doesn't mean the end of the world for you - and not enough of a reason to want to have the person back.

2nd Question:

"It's a process. Do I have what it takes to get through it?"

Know that simply texting a person and following through on the process to get someone back in a relationship could go either way. Upon receiving the text, some people who are led by their emotions would see it as a sign of affection and would possibly react positively. Others, though, could see the text as a turn-off as it would seem nagging. The truth is: there is no sure way to predict how the whole process will turn out.

3rd Question:

"What do I want to achieve in the end?"

Wanting to get back in a relationship doesn't end with you communicating through text and possibly getting back with your ex boyfriend. There are deeper things to consider, such as why the relationship failed in the first place. If your mind isn't set on making things right or changing whatever made the relationship break down, then it will inevitably end up failing again. Think about it.
