When I was 20 years old, my girlfriend that I had been with for 3 years dumped me. It destroyed me. I felt like a husk of a man. I had no desire to eat, I was plagued by insomnia, and all I could focus on was how to get back with my ex girlfriend.

At the time, I had no clue how to get over a breakup. It was impossible for me to acknowledge that any part of the relationship ending had been my responsibility, and by blaming my ex for the whole thing, I threw away any chance of winning her back.

Take this opportunity to learn from my error. Repairing your relationship with your ex starts with you assuming responsibility for the role you played in the relationship’s end. Buck up and take responsibility for where you messed up, and take the steps necessary to show your ex that you are worthy of her. If you’re not willing to do that, getting your ex back clearly isn’t as big of a deal to you as you’re pretending it is.
