How Do I Get My Ex Boyfriend Back If He Wants More Space?

So often, it can seem as if you’re in a relationship that is just running along smoothly when all of a sudden your boyfriend decides that he wants more space. Now, you might automatically think that he’s seeing someone else and maybe he is, but if its space he wants, then it should be space he gets. Although you may be able to convince your ex boyfriend he wants you back even if he says he wants more space. So how do you get your ex boyfriend back?

Go Back To Your Place For a While

Well hopefully you still have a place to go to. But either way, you need to make arrangements to get your own space as soon as possible. Yes, you’re hurting and yes you want to get your ex back, plus you’re feeling upset and heartbroken, but you really need to get your own space and start working to give him what he thinks he wants. You can cry and be upset, but if you still love him, then you’ll respect his wishes, right? Unfortunately for you in this case, that’s exactly what you need to do.

Give Him Distance If You Want To Get Your Ex Back

Many times, when a guy says he wants more space, he really means that he would like to go out with his friends a little more and not have to always spend time with you. You might be surprised to find that many times when a guy says he wants more space, he doesn’t mean that he wants a relationship break up, so, when you aren’t available to take his calls or get together when he wants to, he’s going to begin wondering what’s going on. Let him wonder what’s going on with you for a little while, but then take his calls, because yes, you will get them. Now, you’re going to want to yell at him for being such a creep, but you need to avoid doing this and be as nonchalant as possible. Make excuses when you can, such as going to the gym or out for drinks after work with the girls. He will begin to wonder why you aren’t giving him the time he wants.

Go Have a Little Fun and Space For Yourself

Really, are you pining away for this guy who wants so much space? Go out, have fun. Don’t just sit at home. Go to the places where you usually go and if you do see your ex, say hi, how’s it going and head off to your friends. The point is, you don’t want to give him a reason to say that you’re smothering him, so give him space, but make sure you ‘look good.’ You want to look fresh and vibrant. This will make you feel good about yourself and all that much more confident as well. So, when you’re walking away, he will be left standing looking after you.

Gently Remind Him

Sometimes, guys really don’t get that women take almost everything they tell us to heart, and needing space is no exception. At some point, he will want to know what’s going on. You should gently remind him that you are only giving him the space he said he needs. Don’t act hurt or distressed by this, but simply state a fact. The conversation should go from there without you leading it, so stay calm and be on your guard.

If you are trying to get him back, don’t play games or be too whiny and that way you may just be fortunate enough to get your ex boyfriend back…if that’s what you want!
