Restoring Trust In Relationships After An Affair

How do you get your ex back even after you have cheated? Some people claim that an affair should always end a relationship. I disagree as I believe that every relationship is fixable if both parties really want to work on it.

Restoring trust in relationships requires an adjustment in attitude and actions. Even after an affair, it is possible to save a relationship. But that starts with increasing the level of trust within the couple.

If you have had an affair, you have had an attitude that caused you to stray. There may be something deep in your relationship that is diseased. But you can heal the disease.

What was it that you were looking for when you strayed? Was the sex monotonous? Were they always too busy for you? Did they just not spend enough time on their grooming?

You certainly would not have had an affair if the primary relationship was perfect. So, what needs to be done to fix it? Often that lies in self analysis. But just as often, that lies in your relationship together.

Restoring trust in relationships means fixing the underlying problems. Sometimes that means going into relationship counseling. It is definitely a time to study God's principles on any relationship.

But just understanding our thoughts is not enough. The next step is to take concrete action in fixing the problems. The secret to restoring trust in relationships lies not in talking about the right things, but in doing the right things.

One of the biggest things you can do is to make small promises and keep them. If you promise to take the trash out every evening, do it and, do it consistently. When you demonstrate that you can be trusted in the small things, a gradual sense of confidence will be realized in the larger picture of the relationship.

Your spouse or significant other is going to need constant reassurance that you have changed. This means that you are going to have to apologize more than once over time. It is not easy for them to forgive the breach. If you want to stay with them, you will be patient with that person.

This does not mean that you must feel guilty about the indiscretion forever. In fact, if you allow them to constantly guilt trip you, they will not be satisfied in the new relationship you are building. Just be understanding.

Finally, you need to put a positive spin on the incident. Treat it as an opportunity for both of you to grow as individuals and for the relationship to mature. Just as a bone grows stronger at the place it has been broken, a relationship can improve after an affair.

Restoring trust in relationships take time. It requires that you change both your attitudes and actions. But it is possible to heal the divide and be a stronger couple as a result. These are just a few beginning steps to restoring trust in relationships as is detailed in the book "The Magic Of Making Up".

I Need A Plan To Get My Ex Back

When you and someone you love breaks up, you go through many emotions. You get mad, you feel hurt and even depressed; and you miss them terribly. “I need a plan to get my ex back” becomes an obsession you can not let go of.

There are many books, blogs, websites and forums designed to help you search out a good plan to get your ex back. However, what really makes a huge difference after a breakup, is common sense. Common courtesy will go long way toward healing your relationship.

If you’re obsessed with your lost relationship, and need a plan to get your ex back, then follow this simple advice. You’ll give yourself a better chance of winning back that special someone.

Don’t play silly games. I can't express this enough, but unfortunately many people resort to it during a breakup because it gives them a sense of control. If you can make the other person think that you don’t care, or care more than you really do, you’re manipulating them and that will feel great. But it won’t feel great for long.

You’ll soon realize that deceiving and tricking the other person isn’t a good feeling at all. Anything good that comes from it will always be spoiled because of the lies.

Some people play games by trying to make their ex think they are dating someone else, or pretend to be in love with another person. This ploy is used to try and make the ex jealous. While sometimes it works, often it makes the breakup permanent when it backfires.

It might be possible your ex would be so jealous at the thought of you being with someone else that they will want you back. Or they could think since you moved on so quickly, you didn't really care about them anyway. Don't take the chance because you have no way of determining whether this plan will work until it’s much too late.

Don’t be mean and vicious. This needs to be the rule in any situation or relationship, but the anger around a breakup makes us act more vicious than normal. Even if you’re hurt, the fact that you want to find "a plan to get your ex back” shows that you’re ready to forgive. If not, you wouldn’t want your ex back anyway and you’d be glad it was over.

Think about how you’ve been acting. If you were in your ex's shoes, would you look forward to spending time with you? Do you shout and nag? Even if you feel like starting arguments, simply don’t. Work hard to control your anger and hurt, and be a person they will come to miss.

Be on your best behavior and make your ex remember what drew them to you in the first place. They’ll remember your good points and begin to miss them. Then you’ll have a greater chance of winning back your ex.

These are just a few beginning steps in winning your Ex back. They are the initial steps you should follow for a plan to get your ex back. Frankly these aren't my original ideas. You can turn to T 'Dub' Jackson when you have no idea how to get your true love back.
