Should I Text My Ex Boyfriend

If you are wondering should I text my ex, chances are you want him back. You are looking for a reason to make contact and you sit there and think what could you text him to make him want you back or to get his attention. You are hoping he will reply and somehow make you feel better. The fact is if he broke up with you pretty recently, he will see right through about any text you send. He will see it as the lame excuse it is. This does not portray you in a very attractive light to say the least.

If you are going to text your ex, timing is everything. Do it too soon and you may very well kill any chances of reconciliation. It may put pressure on him and pressure does not endear you to a man. He may feel guilt. If you want an ex back, causing him to feel negative feeling won't do it. It's best to wait after a break up to text him and I don't mean a day or two. I mean weeks. Give your emotions and his time to cool down. Texting him when emotions are high will only make matters worse.

If you do wait and text him, it's important to know what to text him to rekindle those old feelings of when things were good. Men really do remember the good times over the bad time after some time has passed. If you text the wrong thing, you may just be handing him a reminder that yes he did the right thing by ending it. It's critical that when you text him it's not to talk about the relationship or what went wrong. There are right and wrong things to say in a text. Say the wrong thing and he may not even answer. Ouch. Say the right thing though and you can very likely open back up the communication.

If you are texting him in order to get answers or just to reach out and touch him, step away from the phone. This does not get him back. This is you wanting to feel better. You are hurting and your ego needs validation. The opposite is very likely to occur should you text your ex. He may not answer. He may answer and be very brief. Chances are good if you text him too soon and too much, you will do more harm than good.

There are ways to text your ex. I have heard some even say that if you do it right, you can text your ex back with the right timing and the right text messages.
