Hi, this is Brad Browning, and in this video, I’m going to be talking about how to act
around your ex. So you broke up with your ex but you’re still constantly hanging around
with them. This isn’t actually something that I recommend doing. Normally it’s better
to completely ignore your ex for a while after the breakup, but sometimes the situation requires
you to see your ex on a regular basis. And that can be a very awkward and unfortunate
situation, especially if you still have a thing for your ex. But before you panic or
break down, I have some tips on how to act when you’re around your ex-boyfriend or
ex-girlfriend. Number one: always be calm, cool, and collected.
Many of the men and women I counselled tell me that they break down whenever they’re
around their ex. This sort of behavior will definitely negatively impact their chances
of him or her back, so you need to convey to your ex that you’re completely indifferent.
Number two: don’t be mean to your ex. A lot of people will feel resentful after a
breakup – especially if it was a messy one. But if you want to have a good relationship
with your ex and possibly have a chance of getting them back, then you can’t be mean
to them. Doing so will only alienate your ex and he or she won’t ever want to spend
any time with you. Now if your breakup was messy and your ex is still holding on to some
hard feelings, then you may need to take some steps to reconcile with them before you do
anything else. For tips on how to do that, just watch the free video at my website www.BreakupBrad.com
and I’ll talk more about that there. Tip number three: just like I said earlier
not to be mean to your ex, don’t be too nice either. If you’re too nice to your
ex, he or she will get the idea that you want them back. And if you actually want your ex
back, then you probably know from watching my other videos, this is not the way to go
about it. You have to act indifferent. So don’t be too mean and don’t be too happy.
Tip number four: don’t bring up anything serious. Remember, you’re not together anymore,
so there’s no reason to start unnecessary drama. Drama will only push your ex further
and further away. Just like in point number one, you’ve got to remain cool and remain
civil when you’re around your ex-boyfriend or ex-girlfriend.
Number five: this is really important. Have fun with your ex. While you shouldn’t be
paying too much attention to your ex, there’s no reason to have a bad time. Be jovial and
your ex will really appreciate it, and if you’re trying to get your ex back, you should
also be flirting with your ex as well. Remember, the reason why he or she doesn’t want you
back is because they’ve lost their attraction for you. You have to reignite that attraction
and flirting is one of the best ways to do that and rebuild that attraction.
And finally number six: act happy. Remember you’re trying to your ex that everything
is okay. They’re not going to feel very good if you’re desperate and depressed.
That will just repel them away and hurt your chances of getting back together. Instead,
cheer up and convey to your ex-girlfriend or ex-boyfriend that your life is in order
and everything is going great. Even if you’re not happy, just pretend. Put on a happy face.
If your goal is to attract your ex back into your life, then being sad or depressed isn’t
going to work. Human beings are hardwired to be drawn towards happy and positive people.
Okay, so hopefully these tips will leave you better prepared for any interaction with your
ex. If you have a unique situation or you want some advice on what to do in your particular
