A Few Pitfalls To Avoid: The Frisky: Things to Do That Will Get An Ex To Take You Back

  • Don't apologize to the person you feel wronged by in the hopes they'll say they're sorry for what they did. No ulterior motives!
  • Don't throw money at the problem with presents or fancy crap. You can't buy the way someone feels about you or their real forgiveness. That being said, flowers never hurt!
  • Be careful not to bad-mouth someone until you know for sure they wronged you and have no intention of patching things up. You could wind up in a awkward situation where they apologize and you look like a two-faced jerk.
