My ex has a girlfriend, how do i get him back?

Asked by dmcghee2005 over 3 years ago, 19 answers.

I broke up with my boyfriend about 6 months ago, but now I want him back. He has a girlfriend and I have a boyfriend, but I am willing to give up everything that I have to get him back. He was my soulmate and best friend, and I miss the connection that...

we had. Any suggestions on how to get him back?

im going through the same thing. me and my boyfriend really loved each other, but after a myspace issue he didnt trust me. we broke up and after a lot of convincing he took me back. things were going cool but he was still paranoid and couldnt get the myspace situation out of his head. turns out today that we broke up and decided to stay friends. try to be friends with your ex. after all, isnt that how everything started out? you guys being friends? after that he might fall in love with you again. good luck!

Thers no way you can get him back if he feels the same way about this new girl as what you do about him, I would ring him but do it on the sly because if he's not interested any more it will show you right up pet.

You cant just dump someone and then expect to get them back whenever you want! If he was your soulmate and best friend, you wouldnt have dumped him in the first place, and got yourself a new bf!! He has a gf, you need to respect that, and leave him alone!

kennedy if you have a problem with my ADVICE just keep it to yourself!!
I am being truthful, and i HAVE been there, so dont you dare judge me!!!
If she wants him, go and get him? HE ALREADY HAS A GF!!! You dont go around dumping someone, get yourself a new bf, then when you decide you want your ex back after 6 mos. just go and interfere in his new life?
Did you or her ever stop to think what he might have gone through when she dumped him? Maybe he doesnt want her back for fear she might do it again to him! Sometimes we make mistakes that we sometimes regret, but thats a part of life. Its how we learn!
*If he hasnt given you any signs that he wants you back...leave him alone!

lol anyways .. if your in a relationship and your not happy with your boyfriend and you want someone else or not then thats your right .. break up with your boyfriend tell him you rather break up with him then to stay with him and cheat on him and as for getting your ex back wear something cute show a LIL skin not to much and hang with him alone for a while be happy and laugh a lot remind him why he liked you and if he cares about you and still thinks about you the way you thik and care about him things will work themselves out and if he doesnt get the point call or im or write him a message sayin you still have intrest in him and if hes not willing to give his currrent relationship up then when hes single or lonely to give you a call

I know it's a hard thing to do, when people tell you to just forget about someone you once loved and would have given anything to be with, But trying to forget about someone you once loved is like trying to forget about someone you never knew/ If this guy truly loves you and is willing to put forth the effort in seeing you and still talking to you, then I would go after him. But not so fast that your going to get your heart broken again, I mean after all He does have a new life and who knows, Maybe he is meant to be with this new girl he has.

I am going through the same thing...but I don't have anyone right now. We went on a break from each other.. and in that time he was with someone else and decided to tell me that he has a new girlfriend... and it kind of just happened.. I guess these things happen. I personally believe that you should leave him be for a bit. Being with this other person will give him a new experience and maybe let him sort out his feelings... he very well may be back to you but he may not too. I think you need to protect yourself in this sense and just stay away because if anything that will make him realize even more that he has lost you. If you keep contacting him, he will believe that you are still there. You need to make him think you are GONE. Good luck. I know it hurts... but sometimes it can't get any worse.. only better. You must believe that to be true to move on either way.

I understand what you are going through, I have the same issue right now. I want my ex back after 5-51/2 years later. The problem is he has a girlfriend and they live together. He knows that I still love him, he has even told someone I know that he still loves me, and want to be with me. Its hard when you love someone, and there is something standing between you two. What suggest is that you take your time and play every card you are dealt with the right way.The no matter what happens you know that you did your very best. I now have to deal with the fact that he is willing to dump his girl for me. I love him so much I am willing to just leave it alone, to spare everyones feelings.Sometimes its not just about your feelings.

I agree with kennedy.
some things happen and there's nothing you could do stop them then.
but I'm in the same position and my ex has a new girlfriend.
I want him back but I don't know how to do it.
and I don't want to be a home wr4cker

Hello,
My name is Kianne, and I've been quite interested in this post for some time. This situation is one that I am currently experiencing, with a little worse attitude: my boy broke up with me on Wednesday and two days later my best friend was going out with him. Imagine the hurt! I spurted raspberry fizzy drink into his eyes and cracked my best friend across the head with a geography book (I recommend not doing that; it's a waste of soft drink and takes print off your book).

He forgave me and said he deserved that. He did.
But my friend said, with a smile (that hurt), 'I feel really bad now.' But did she? Nope.

Anyway, the first step to getting your ex back is giving him some space to move. After all, if you seem needy or clingy he won't like it, not at all. Try to show him (without telling him that you are showing him) how much fun you had together and try to re-piece your 'Puzzle of Love'. Think about what attracted him to you in the first place.

Wear nice clothes that look good on you. Don't be afraid to ask for opinions. Treat his girlfriend as you would treat a best friend, because you know what? Your ex-boyfriend sees you hanging out with her, joking and laughing, you've as good as won a ticket into his heart!

Remember why you loved him and question yourself: does this have a positive outcome?

If it does, ask yourself how you feel about him now. Do you feel as though you need him desperately... or do you realize that you just want to be friends?

Angelfire 2708 and Kennedy both have good points.
but what you have to do, is follow your heart.
ask urself:
what do YOU want to do?
if you really miss him, and everytime you close your eyes, you see him, then you prbly love him.
but you should take some time to think about it.
because you dont want your heart or his heart to get broken again.
I hope it works out :'(

I know the feeling. its hard. there was this guy that I was talking to for a while. but I blew it. we were gonna go out but I was stupid and said some thing I shouldnt have. now he has a girlfriend hes in love with. but the best thing to do is talk to him and if he doesnt wanna get back, dont get too upset, just stay strong and get back in the game.

Answered by happyending on May 13, 2009, 12:14PM

we dated for four years and then he broke up with me on our 4 yr anniversary. we loved each other, but I think he loved me more than I loved him. I now wish I had treated him better and didn't take everything as granted; however, it's too late now.

he is in love with another girl, and he seems very happy with his new life. I told myself that if I love him, I should let him go. I tired, but I didn't know it's so hard to forget about him. he wanted to be friends after we broke up, but I didn't want to because I wanted to be his girlfriend and couldn't handle him loving someone else.

I sometimes think we are still gonna get back together, and what's happening now is only temporary. we used to love each other very much. I started to write journals. it makes me feel better.

however, I think I blew it up again bc I started to text him recently. he replied, but he seemed relunctant to reply. I don't know what to do either..

I am experiencing the same thing right now. My ex and I were together for almost 4 years and we split about 3 weeks ago. a few days later, he started seeing this girl that I had previously asked him about. He said it was nothing, that they were just friends. He maintains that he never cheated on me, and I really do believe him. However, a few days into their relationship she left for Europe. For 12 days we saw eachother every day, and acted like we were still a couple. Yes, we even slept together multiple times. He repeatedly told me that he still has strong feelings for me. And that one day, maybe even soon if I get my things worked out we can try to make things work again but no promises. 2 nights ago he told me he loved me, and that he ever stopped. She got home last night and he picked her up from the airport. After which he took her home. Late last night he picked me up, and we went to his place, and talked a bit, and then were intimate. Today he called me as soon as he woke up, and he calls me every day and every night. He is really a great person. He tells me that right now she makes him happy. And that its not serious, that they both just have been hurt before and want someone to make them feel better. He is with her right now. And I want him back so badly. I know the things that I do that drive him crazy. And I am trying so hard to prove to him that I am and can be the person that he fell in love with. However he is still not convinced. I also need some advice. But I will tell you this. Give him a little space, let him call you, do not suffocate him, because that is what I did that broke us up. Let him know how you feel, but do not be mean. Show him you care, and that you are the better person for him.

this is me. Answered by lindskay on Aug 02, 2009, 05:03PM

I know exactly what your going through..
My ex boyfriend dumped me because I acted like I didn't want to be with him. Which is total BS, but when I would get around him I would be so shy and my heart would jump in my chest and I wouldn't know what to say, we talked sometimes, but he said he was shy too, so I mean I thought everything would get better, well he broke up with me, and it hurt. Then I asked him IF I would EVER get a second chance, and his exact words were, I don't know Maybe then I told him the next day that this girl named Janice liked him. (BIGGEST MISTAKE!) He said he liked her as a friend. Then guess what they go out now, I cried, like forever. then I texted him say hey, whats up. then I said I'm happy for you and janice and he said I think your lien but it don't matter, anyways whats up? I like this guy sooo much he's blind to think I don't.
I need some advice, please someone help me.. :/

im going through a situation a little different, I fell pregnant and had whooping cough and nearly died twice he didnt know I wass pregnant and I got depressed because I had to terminate it, I know now I should have told him been broken up 3 months now started talking slightly but he told me that hes been dating a girl a week after we broke up, he came around to my house and told me he might probably commit to a relationship with her.. he is 30 she is 18.. but he said to me she has a potential to be a slut!!! I love him all my heart and I asked him if he had feelings he told me he doesnt know.. and doesnt wanna let me in yet! but his body language states otherwise... what should I do?? what does this mean?? he wrote a txt saying he would be out my way for next couple of weeks and said he is sure we will catch up over the next few weeks.. whats catch up? a check up at date or what??

im going though the same exact thing right now. we dated for four years, and I broke it off with him because I was curious of what it felt like to be single again, it feels wrong to want him back after 6mos.(same as your situation) but I litterally cryed mmyself to sleep for the past week, I dont have a boyfriend, but he has a girlfriend. He talks and flirts with me but hes not breaking up with her, I dont know what to do
