Going back to your ex is very tempting, especially if you’re lonely and single. But it is never a good idea, even when the break up was your fault. We know how hard it can be to let a guy you really love go, so we are going to give you a few tips that should make it easier.
These 5 tips will keep you from going back to your ex
1. Cry about everything
Hook up with your friend and cry about everything that hurts. Talk and cry about all the drama, anger and hurt he caused you, and then let it go. Do not dwell on it or go back to it, focus instead on moving on.

2. Cut off mutual friends for a while too
Mutual friends will want to talk about the breakup, mostly because they are concerned. But talking about it won’t help you move on, so take a break from your mutual friends until you’re better. You can let them know it’s just for a while and you’ll get in touch later.
3. Cut him off completely
Delete him from all your social networks after you’ve blocked him from all of them. Block and erase his texts, calls and e.mails so you won’t be tempted to call him or pick his calls. If you’ve memorized his number, . the number game and rearrange it in your head a lot to forget it.

4. Write reminders
Women have a tendency to romanticise the past. We forget the bad times and focus solely on the good times which is why you still want to go back. So if you have to, write down reminders of the reason you broke up and why you shouldn’t go back.
5. Don’t go to places he goes
If the point is to get over him, then seeing him frequently won’t help either so cut off from mutual places too. Explore new places where you can meet new people and stay memory free.
