You’re going to need to take a completely fresh approach. Begin by breaking contact off for a while, doing your own thing. During this time where there is no communication between you and your ex boyfriend, focus on ways you can improve your own personal life. Don’t focus on the relationship issues. Take a mind break. This is going to be a challenging time, and it is going to require discipline to prevent you from returning to your old ways.
Your ex is going to experience a shift in how he feels about you too, since you will no longer be pursuing him. You may become mysterious to him in some ways, because he is not sure what you are doing or feeling. This is actually something that can work in your favor. Now your ex is in a position to actually miss you, which is not possible when you are smothering him.
Once you implement this basic strategy you can restore a balance and allow your ex to remember why he loved you in the first place. Just keep yourself grounded and avoid smothering him. Make yourself appear mysterious and he will be reminded why he loved you in the first place. Play hard to get, but don’t over do it, and let him make the first move to reconcile. You will come out on top. And then you will stop asking “What can I do to get my ex boyfriend back?”
