The Truth About Break Ups

To keep your relationship in perspective, it is important to acknowledge the following:

Truth #1: It takes time to fix. Sure, you would like a quick-fix, who wouldn't? I have seen couples get back together quickly, but nore often than not, you will need to be patient and work your plan.

Truth #2: You will have to remain strong. This is surely an emotional time for you and the pain may very well be pretty intense. This is not the most resourceful state for you to be in, so even if you can't eliminate the pain, at least avoid showing it outwardly.

Truth #3: Blatant attempts at persuasion will not work. This is the classic desperation move and you'll need to avoid doing it. It doesn't work anyway.

Truth #4: You can't buy love. So don't send gifts. Another desperation move.

Truth #5: Every relationship is different. Although there are many universal techniques that are proven to be very effective, please understand that you will still need to pinpoint the specific factors that caused your breakup. This will be the basis for a good starting point.

Recognizing these often painful truths about breaking up will allow you to set reasonable expectations, formulate a plan that will actually work, and put yourself in a resourceful state to execute that plan so you can win your lover back.
