20 Tips to Show Your Ex What He’s Missing
Did your ex cheat on you? Did he break up with you with unjustifiable reasons?
Well, Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. Try out these quirky methods to get your ex rolling in the palm of your hands.
1. Stop eating junk food
Don't add the calories. Eating unhealthy food won't take you anywhere but a lonely sofa date in front of your TV scooping a spoonful of ice cream.
2. Quit drinking excessive alcohol
And if you can help it, give up smoking too. What they do is just shorten your life span. Besides alcohol won't help you solve anything.
3. Don't pester him with calls or messages
This will just annoy him even more and can imply your desperation.
4. Disappear from his view for a while
Make him miss you. Absence makes the heart grow fonder, give him time to think about you.
5. Read the Art of Seduction by Robert Greene
Get some advice from an expert. Learn the simple gestures and the psychology behind seducing someone.
6. Start exercising and eating healthy
Be in your best shape, you'll feel lighter, healthier and better after you work out more plus a proper diet.
7. Glam up
How about a little make-up and a facial here and there? A girl should always be in her best form.
8. Maintain constant contact with your common friends
This is hitting two birds with one stone. You get updates of him through your friends at the same time they could tell your ex what is going on about you.
9. Stop moping around and get out there
No point in staying in all day. Go out, travel and live out your life. Don't let the breakup hold you down.
10. Get preoccupied with new discoveries such as learn pole dancing, pottery, culinary or do yoga
Being busy in new routines will help your mind take off unnecessary stress. Do something good and improve your lifestyle like being productive and changing for the better.
11. Open yourself up to changes
Stop being negative and close-minded all the time. Welcome new positive changes in your life, remember opportunity knocks only once.
12. Go on casual dates arranged by your friends
You are beautiful. He's not the only guy that could develop interest in you. This is a good way to boost your self-esteem.
13. Wear clothes that match you perfectly
It doesn't have to be too daring or overly exposed; the perfect dress would match your personality and at the same time accentuate your assets.
14. When it's time to show yourself to your ex, relax and just be yourself
Compose yourself; you don't have to act like “it's nothing”. Don't act, he may see through your little shenanigan. Instead, just relax and don't be too conscious, after all you two are over right?
15. Have fun
Don't let him spoil your fun. Just imagine he's not there and enjoy the moment.
16. Show him you're more than okay
Don't let him get to you either. If says anything unpleasant to you, ignore it. It's not even worth it to be talking to that kind of guy. And if he asks about you, tell positive things, almost like you're not affected.
17. Emphasize the “more” and the “-er” in your life now
More beautiful, happier, healthier, and to simplify everything, “better”. Tell stories of your recent adventures and fun-packed experiences.
18. Let him know that you're a catch
It says it all. Make him know that he's not the only guy in the world. However, you don't have to flirt all night to prove it. You can just make a connection or two with other guys to prove your point.
19. Don't flirt with him
Keep it casual to show him that you're not that desperate for his attention. Treat him with familiarity, but since you two are over, let him know he can only be in your friend-zone (for now at least).
20. Play Hard to Get and Prolong his agony
Don't get too close for comfort. Every man likes a challenge. Wait for him to make the first move, like baiting him in with anticipation.
And finally, just show him that you've moved on and you're loving it. That will surely get his attention.
