Get Your Ex Husband Back

You’ve been divorced for awhile but it’s just not working for you.  Back then, you and your ex were unhappy with each other and divorce seemed the only solution.

Now though, you see that was not the solution at all, and you want to get him back into your life. If you have reason to believe your ex is also unhappy, it’s a ‘no brainer‘.

Just initiate a conversation to let him know how you feel.  If however, he seems to be happy with the situation as it is, you will have to work to get your ex husband back.

It’s possible that he feels the same as you, but his pride won’t let him show his feelings for fear of your rejection.  He may be putting up a brave front for you, but if there are older children involved, they will be able to give you broader insight into his true feelings.

When they visit their father, they can see into his life and feelings much better than you can see from a distance.  A note of caution here though – Be careful how you enlist the aid of the children.  Don’t put them in a position of spying, or taking sides with one parent or the other.  Putting them in the middle of this can do untold psychological damage, and culminate with alienating them from both parents.

Who was at fault in the divorce?  Who initiated the proceedings?  Chances are you were both at fault unless there was a serious breach of trust or an ‘unforgivable’ infidelity.  In any case, since you seem to want to get your ex husband back, you appear to have forgiven him already.  So if you are the guilty party, what do you think it will take to win him back?

Was the problem a failure to work out small problems until they grew and grew into seemingly insurmountable obstacles?  You must pin point the issues, identify the cause, and make a plan to resolve the issues. Otherwise, getting back together would be pointless; the same issues would occur and you’d most likely fail again.

The most prevalent causes of divorce are thought to be:
Lack of Communication
Money
Parenting Techniques
Ambition (or lack of it)
Outside influences (family/friends)
Drugs/Alcoholism/Abuse

The last item on the list is the most difficult.  This calls for professional help.  The chances of solving this on your own are almost zilch.

The first five causes though are things which can be worked out over time if both parties are willing.  The first one, communication is the key.  Once you can sit down and calmly, respectfully discuss where the marriage went sour, you can make a plan to get your ex-husband back.

Even if you don’t make your wish known to him at the beginning, once you hear what his problem was with you and the marriage, you will be able to begin work on your own to change yourself and/or your behaviors.  Once he sees a change in you, he will begin to soften and be more open to working things out.

If the divorce was a particularly nasty affair which left you both bruised and hurting, you may not be on speaking terns.  If you have children, he most likely has visiting rights which necessitates face to fact encounters when he picks them up.  This is the best opportunity to show a change of heart.  If you always show kindness and generosity on these occasions, you are opening a door to longer conversations in the future.

If you’re serious about wanting to get your ex husband back, don’t rush things.  The problems didn’t happen overnight, and neither will the reconciliation.

If you make a serious attempt at changing your own objectionable behaviors, he will surely notice; if not, the children will tell him.  He’ll begin to see you in a more favorable light.  When you sense this happening, suggest a private meeting where you can talk.  A possible excuse would be to discuss the children and their future.  Perhaps invite him to lunch at a quiet place.  Some place which holds good memories for the both of you would be ideal.

If you feel the meeting is going your way and he might react favorably to your suggestion to get back together, just lay your cards on the table.  Tell him you think the divorce was a mistake and you would like to get back together.  Don’t say “for the children’s sake”.  Trying to use his love for them as a reason to get your ex husband back is a dirty trick.  The reason for being together must be because you love each other and want a happy life together.  If the marriage is unhappy, the children will also be unhappy.

Discuss the reasons you should get back together. If his actions caused the divorce, give him your complete forgiveness. If you were at fault, confess and sincerely ask for his forgiveness.

If he refuses to meet with you, he probably is not ready to even hear you out.  The best thing to do here is wait.  Continue to work on your own improvement.  Try to be active, get a gym membership, take up a hobby, etc.  Do not portray yourself as needy or helpless.  At the same time, don’t be aggressive.  When you see him, be genuinely friendly and show interest in him and his life.  Even if you never get your ex-husband back, he’ll always be the father of your children.

Leave no stone unturned if you want to get your ex husband back.  If you are not able to achieve the reconciliation you hope for, you will at least know you tried your best.  If it didn’t work out, resolve to get on with making a new life for yourself and be the best person you can be.
